Radio Talk – a good radio podcast. Hurray.

So, I’ve finally discovered a rather good radio podcast.
Produced by The Radio Academy, and presented by radio chap (and Academy CEO) Trevor Dann, it’s actually rather good. It’s kind of like Media Talk, but without the irrelevant idiot-box talk and BBC-baiting (which, for me, makes it fairly difficult to listen to).
Trevor’s a nice man who clearly puts interviewees at their ease – so that they probably say things they probably shouldn’t. I listened to Tim Blackmore MBE, saying that the pre-recording of Jonathan Ross’s programme was “ludicrous”, and Ofcom’s Peter Davies trying carefully not to be caught out by Trevor’s questioning about locality.
It’s a well-produced, well-hosted podcast, and it’s free. The only peculiar thing is that you won’t find it by searching iTunes for it, which seems odd. So, either you should follow the Radio Academy’s instructions, or just do this (which is rather easier):

…in one easy step
1. Drag and drop Trevor’s cat onto your iTunes library.
2. Er
3. That’s it.
(Please do not attempt with real cat).
Errr… if you search in iTunes for “Radio Academy”, isn’t it the third one down?
I agree, it’s a great podcast.
