The coming podcast surplus. As of now, there are more minutes produced by the podcasts I listen to each day than there is time to listen to them.
I can't listen to something new without not listening to something else. Which makes it challenging to find the energy to seek out new ones. Rebroadcasts of radio shows rarely keep my attention any more, because the podcast-focused audio is so much more focused (but they are still popular on most lists, because they're initially more well known).

He is among a new generation of social entrepreneurs who want to make the world a better place, and make money doing it. Social entrepreneurship – whether as new or existing ventures, with an environmental or social-justice focus – is a hot topic on campus. Universities are adding courses and programs, establishing incubators to nurture ideas and offering mentoring and other support for those who see a career in this expanding sector.
Change Agent: Rottenberg's 'crazy' world mission. NEW YORK — After graduating from Yale Law School nearly two decades ago, Linda Rottenberg spent time working in Latin America for Ashoka, a non-profit focused on promoting social entrepreneurship.
She quickly earned herself a nickname: la chica loca — that crazy girl. It's not what you think. The moniker wasn't the result of wild nights in the clubs of Buenos Aires and Santiago, but rather courtesy of her insistent and incessant declaration that places such as Argentina and Chile could be engines of a new economic revolution. "I was convinced the next Steve Jobs or Oprah could come from the emerging markets, if they were only given a chance," says Rottenberg, 44, a whirl of focused intensity in her spartan Lower Manhattan office, where intellectual-chic décor mixes stacks of books with a swiveling coffee table that recalls a Calder mobile.
