Needs a little tweaking
To help combat the problem of it absorbing all 16 hours since you left you computer i offer a few sources. first you set the podcast settings to allow you to manually refresh it when you need the podcast (this is what I do). Another way would be to go through and uncheck all the old hour summaries and set up you ipod to only accept checked podcasts. Another suggestion would be to go under podcast settings and have it update only the most recent ones. These are some suggestions that I can offer.

The real fair and balanced news program. NPR is my source for what is happening.

This podcast fails to update frequently enough anymore. It use to get updated by 10 minutes after the hour, but now goes for half a day or more without updates.

Concise and unbiased, this is my go-to news broadcast for a quick round-up of top news stories.
