SOTT Podcasts via Podcast apps

I want to say this is incredible what you all are doing! You've produced so many new podcasts in the past few months that I haven't been able to keep up! I liked listening to them in the background and listening on the computer just didn't work. Since I've begun my new job, I have to commute a anywhere from 2-3 hours a day. Fortunately, I can now listen to the podcasts on my Android phone through an app called Pocket Casts. I was able to subscribe to the SOTT Radio network broadcasts, queue them up and listen to it while I'm in my car in traffic. I also try pipe breathing, which helps calm me down when I've been driving on a highway at 5 mph for 10 miles :).

I wanted to add my two cents on suggestions for apps to listen to podcasts. Pocket Casts costs 4 dollars, but it lets you buffer the podcasts and listen to them, keeping your data plan from capping. The user interface is also really slick, intuitive and free of ads! As an aside, stay away from Stitcher. It used to have a buffer feature that has since been removed, become inundated with ads which have reduced the old snappy responsiveness of the app. Generally, most of the free ones have ads, crappy interfaces and leave you with a bad user experience. As a rule of thumb: If the app is free, you are the product.

Finally, I'm also curious what other apps people are using to listen to the SOTT Broadcast. (i wish i could contribute some reviews on iPhone podcast apps but I don't have one. There's always iTunes, which most podcast apps query to get podcast streams)
