When I was in my 20s, I bought a Volkswagen Thing. It was orange, with a removable hardtop, a three-inch body lift and larger than normal tires. It was a fun car, especially in the summer, and I was always working on it.

One day, my boss told me he was living vicariously through me (and that car). At the time, I really didn’t understand it, but now that I have more responsibilities and can’t spend all my time or money on a special-needs car, I understand where he was coming from.

This isn’t a post about old cars, but rather about podcasts, and one podcast in particular. It’s interesting how our media consumption habits change. Podcasts have been around since the very first iPod (and many people will argue that they were around as radio shows before that), but I never really got it. I think it’s because I never really found a podcast that spoke to me.
