In looking through the podcasts offered in the provided links, there is a large difference in quality. I found one I liked that was actually a video podcast that was very well made and easy to understand. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I found some that were scratchy, mono and with no visual clues. I'm hearing impaired and I really need the visual to "get" what is going on if I'm not familiar with the voice, accent, etc.
On Itunes, I follow a cool one called "Stuff you missed in history class". I have seen some cool ones done for book reviews, etc. where the kids are doing the talking. I really like the ones Doug Valentine (Dr. Loopy) does with CrazyTalk.
This is something I'm hoping to work into my library in the coming year.
