I used to really hate podcasts. To the point that I didn't understand what all the hype was about and judged people who ranted and raved about their love of them. Now I'm eating my words because I've become a MAJOR fan of podcasts. For me, they've become a way for me to stay up-to-date [...]

First of all, many of them fail to provide fresh ingredients. Second of all, they are often not conducive for the family or household [...]
