Im a fan of the show but I’ve got a gripe with this. It kindof grinds my gears so excuse the rant. Its kindof lame having a repeat/bestof episode of a podcast. It may make sense on traditional radio but podcasts have archives so if we wanted to listen to an old story, we already can. Posting them as a ‘best of’ show just makes us think for a split second that theres some fresh content when we see a new post on the blog. If you think an old story is worth a re-listen, just link to it rather than re-cut it in to a pseudo-new-episode.
I agree totally, on top of it – the best of podcasts often dont have the piece I want to listen to :s
