Want to send us an audio comment but you don't have the software? Then head over to http://www.evoca.com (its like Flickr but for your recordings rather than your photos), press the record button in the bottom right hand corner, then save the comment into the group named 'topofthepods'. You might have to sign up, but you'll hear everyones messages at http://www.evoca.com/groups/topofthepods - we want to hear people respond to each other peoples audio comments and get an argument going - it'll be funny and we might just play it.

ph: thanks for that above link. I love my 30gb video iPod, but the battery life is RUBBISH! Supposedly you get 14 hours of music or 2 hours of video, but I think it's less. There are lots of ways to conserve battery life (like not playing videos, HA!) but these replacement batteries look like a good deal.
Rob--get you a video iPod.
HEY all,
on podcastdirectory.com i voted topofthepods 5/5 and it moved the overall rankings up 0.03, from 4.47 to 4.50. not bad for just one vote.
everyone reading these comments should take just a minute and go vote!!!

The detective show in question is "The Strange Report". A very good, if under-rated, bit of british detective drama. Terribly dated in some ways - but terribly 60's in a fab/groovy kinda way too :-)

In fact, I've mp3'd the soundtrack from my DVD :
Strange Report
Enjoy :-)

I have a few ipods... My 'new' 30 gig iPod Video (in White... Yup, old school is still cool) is fantastic! The battery life is so much better than my older iPods (I have a 2nd generation 20gig which gets about 3 hours of audio, and a 4th generation 40gig which gets about 7 hours of audio).
The 30 Gig video is smart, small, easy to use and a perfect device for audio and video (and the best thing is that it charges via USB, so when I am watching long videos I simply keep it plugged in, and of course one could also charge it in the car with a USB adaptor).
I've found my video ipod to be a bit iffy... Battery life is poor (5-7hrs), it's crashed (ie, frozen hard) a couple of times already etc etc.
I preferred my previous little no-name korean USB/flash one to be honest...
I really use the ipod as a removable hard-drive that happens to play music (as long as it's in a format Apple deem acceptable of course). No radio or mic/line-in either :-/

hey guys, great podcast.....dont see "your mother" on there anywhere though.
what is this? an ipod comment board or what? :)
Worst thing to see when i wake up in the morning...my itunes shows no new topofthepods shows for the day. that really sucks. also, have had a few bad "after a heavy night out and wake up next to a troll" experiences. glad those days are gone...
And by the way, not all of your listeners (the ones that don't have their own podcast) are 12 year olds. I'm 29, my wife is 27, and we love (and promote) the show in whatever ways we can (in the most non-nerdy way we can of course). Keep up the funny stuff guys. By the way, Rob, i have a looker friend that you may want to meet if you are ever in the states (east coast). she likes your pic and thinks you're funny. obviously she'd mad.

Hi Guys,
Two points:
1. New iPod batteries can be bought at Maplins.
2. My no. 1 for this episode must be: Somebody elses bedroom when you don't even remember who the 'sombody else' is or where you were the night before.
Great show as always
hey - great show (again!)...made me laugh several times and many comments are so true. I can't believe Jon doesn't know what a Dry Cleaners is, where've you been, the 19th century?
thanks for the evoca link, I'll be having some of that for Radio Clash...and thank ye kindlee for the mention.
And I'm 33 in 19 days ;-)
