New podcasts in July 2009 - Anne is a Man

Before I summarize the podcasts that were newly reviewed on this blog I want to point out another new thing that from now on you will occasionally find on Anne is a Man. Thanks to a smart comment by one of the readers, I found out how I can use my Google Reader to compile feeds from podcast episodes that I choose. Thus, I have begun compiling already 4 feeds and will continue to add others. You need only subscribe and you will get the podcast episodes from various sources, that I chose for you.

The first three are feeds that channel old episodes of the classic Dutch interview podcast Simek 's Nachts (RVU). These files are still on the RVU server, but not delivered in iTunes. Through my feeds they become available for everybody: AIAM Simek1, AIAM Simek2, AIAM Simek3.

The fourth feed is a composite feed of six podcast episodes from various sources about the current situation in Iran and the historic backdrop: Anne is a Man - Iran
