Thing 22-- Podcasts

I am familiar with podcasts because my husband bought me a Zune for Christmas last year. There is a whole section on the Zune for podcasts (and music, pictures, and videos...it's really the Microsoft version of an iPod), and I had to fill it up and be all tech savvy!

I tried out several podcast subscriptions, but really the only things that stuck were the Radio Disney and Frontline World Podcasts. I'm pretty much obsessed with Frontline World, and my kids are pretty much obsessed with all things Disney Channel.

I have never met a Frontline World podcast that I didn't like, but if I had to pick a favorite, it would be Chicago: Little Mexico because it addresses immigrant issues in this country; and I am genuinely passionate about immigrant rights.

Just as a side note: Here is the link to the Frontline Teacher Resource Center. Hope it's useful to someone or many someones!
