Don’s Blog

When you live in a country where you’re not perfectly fluent in the language (and reading isn’t really popular activity) you’re always on the look-out for English language magazines.  Fortunately, there is a source available and they actually are offering one-year subscriptions to the electronic editions of numerous different magazines for free!

(It’s not quite the same as “real paper” but you do get to view every page of the magazine..)

A while ago I posted a list of my favourite audio programs/podcasts on the internet. 

It’s now time to add two more to that list:

TVO’s Big Ideas

Broadcast on TVO this program is also available as both an audio and a video podcast it bills itself as "TELEVISION FOR PASSIONATE THINKERS"…

The Economist Audio Edition

The entire content of each week’s edition of The Economist is converted to audio format and available for download/listening to.  Unfortunately the entire contents are only available to subscribers—but a few audio/video podcasts are posted each day here.
