Yesterday’s Vital Juice for Fitness (a daily email with fitness tips) featured “a series of 8-minute podcasts packed with perfect dinner party fodder.” Basically, these 8-minute podcasts contained some interesting info about politics, travel, pop culture and history. The concept immediately made me think of the episode of This American Life that features the “modern jackass”. Those of us (I totally fall into this category) who know just enough about a random subject to form an opinion and make an argument (say at a dinner party), but who are far from experts and really don’t know what we’re talking about when you get into it.
Anyway, Vital Juice, I think I’ll continue to get my dinner party fodder from NPR.
