My Favourite CBC Podcast Is Outfront

I listen to a lot of podcasts - my primary source of audio consumption.  I listen to them because program I want are never on when I want them to be.  Another reason is because I believe podcasting is much more interesting than general talk radio.  I listened to rock stations most of my teenage life.  But, then, something happened.  I think I grew up or, most likely, got bored of the whole dee-jay thing.  I moved to news and talk radio. 

I wonder what it was that kicked my interests over to stations like CBC Radio One, Two, and Three.  Three in wonderful.  Being exposed to new music is incredibly exciting and I enjoy it.  But, nothing can replace the Radio One programming.  It is thoughtful and I can't seem to get enough.

One of my favourite podcasts is the CBC program, Outfront.  The program allows people like me who know very little (if anything) about the technical details of recording and allows them to record and build a story for the radio.  I am trying to think of a program I could offer but I don't believe that I have anything interesting enough.  Maybe something like "life at a start up".
