A-Infos: A Listener's Quick Guide To Downloading

Like most other honest art forms, live radio is a dying one. Not that radio is necessarily an 'art form', but it should be. My own show is a semi-improvisational stream-of-consciousness musical journey of juxtaposticated schizixpression that doesn't claim to be fair or balanced, but I do tend to let you interpret things as you will. If I stopped to explain what I was doing, my show would consist of a lot more talking and a lot less music.And who wants to listen to that?

But sometimes some explaining is helpful...as in explaining how to get one of the consarned A-Infos podcasts to download so you can take The New Breakfast Snob with you on your nano-drive gadget and listen to it in the privacy of your own head.

Well, you could start at the Show Archive Page:



1) Click the tiny little Podcast button (circled in red w/arrow)

2) Something very much like the window below will appear. Choose a bookmark location of your preference (I used my toolbar for an example) and click 'Subscribe'.


You should see the new Podcast icon (circled in red) appear on the toolbar (or wherever you've saved it). Click the icon and a menu of all the available podcasts for the show will appear:


Click on the show that catches your eye. (Note that you can also do this from the main archive page on the left of the screenshot.). You will be taken to a page for that individual episode:


Scroll Down to the bottom. The target is circled and has a big red arrow pointing to it. Aim and click. Your file should start downloading after that.


If you think that the steps above are a lot of work, you should try putting together two hours of music each and every week, announcing it live on the radio, recording it, uploading the recording, writing out the playlist and compiling the technical manual that goes along with said podcast.

On second thought, don't try that. Just download and enjoy the tunes.
