\\\"Sort of like a podcast, but sent over the open airwaves\\\"? This (at the time of writing) opens the article without a hint of irony, despite the fact that pretty much anyone under the age of... 10?... 20?... is going to have grown up well before the phenomenon of \\\"podcasting\\\" even existed, and will define podcasts in terms of radio, not the other way round.
You might as well describe it as \\\"just like television, without the pictures\\\"- though those parts of the world with an ongoing speech radio tradition (like Britain) still have a reference point that doesn\\\'t relate to NewMedia.
How might we rectify this? (Temptation being to go along the funny/sarcastic \\\"WhenIWasYourAge\\\"/GrumpyOldMan type route but that sounds like bashing our younger tropers...
By the way, I\\\'m \\\"only\\\" 29 (and an avid Radio 4 listener).
