PRX: huge, searchable library of public radio goodness

Jesse Brown, a BoingBoing guest blogger, is the host of TVO's Search Engine podcast.

PRX, the Public Radio Exchange, is an online marketplace connecting radio producers with radio programmers. But it's also a massive library of searchable content- some of it very good- that you can get lost in for hours.

This is brilliant - thank you!

"Go Nuts!"

Yes, please do go nuts. Producers love being listened to, and being reviewed, too.

Things you can do while listening:

-Craft
-Stare into space
-Basically anything that doesn't require a conversation, drill or hammer
