I was just working on a quick interview I did with Eric Rice back at the beginning of March. It will be posted soon, but one phrase really caught my attention. When we were talking about large corporations adopting podcasting - or frankly, their slow uptake (trust me, many are talking, but doing nothing.) Eric had this to say:

As you know when I contacted you last year trying to push podcasting to my corporate clients I agree with Eric –lots and lots of talk but no action on there side. I will keep pushing…. I recently met Eric Rice at the Silicon Valley podcasting meetup and he is a hoot. I look forward to stealing his quote!!!! Thanks for posting it and keep up the good work!
