With all the attention in recent days on podcasts (I always think of Stan Freberg calling records, 'pay radio,' and wonder if he'd see podcasts in the same light), I fell over a 100% Joe Rogan-free podcast about SPAM that I found fascinating.   

Though I am wondering if Terry Jones and Michael Palin were as amused.
