    Why call it a podcast? Digital audio interviews existed before the iPod. Just following your logic.

    I guess my point it, why does it matter? We both know what it means. The language has accomplished its goal of communication.

      You’re not following my logic because you don’t understand it. A podcast is not a “digital audio interview”.

      The core concept of what makes a podcast a podcast is the method audio files are distributed (RSS).

      I guess my point it, why does it matter?

      Because you’re conflating an open distribution method with a proprietary one.

      We both know what it means.

      You obviously don’t understand what it means.

      The language has accomplished its goal of communication.

      It didn’t actually. If it had, I wouldn’t have pulled up my podcast app to find and listen to this episode, only to find that it didn’t exist.

        Ah. I get it. Pet peeves do be the worst sometimes.
