Catching up on podcasts

For the last several months I've had way too many feeds in my podcatcher (PeaPod, btw, very well done no-frills Linux podcatcher). The consequence is that I've been listening about three weeks behind real time.

For a combination of reasons I'm catching up. I'm only a week behind now. Just goes to show you that it is possible to listen to 47 podcast feeds plus a couple of audio shows scraped off the 'net without RSS plus a couple of audio books tricked into the stream using a bit of bash script.

Of course to get that much listening time, you have to have a long commute, sleep poorly, and spend a few hours a week on a treadmill.
