It is pretty small. I posted here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AvuBuS61O1XFIsLjDFi9NTHsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20090727090349AARkJnY Wiki also has some stuff as shown by the cite.

The only reason I really noticed this is because I subscribe to several podcasts and to help organize I created a smart playlist that lists all new unheard podcasts in reverse order of release date. I'm always a few weeks behind, but I use this to listen to the different podcasts I follow in order of date. So, it's weird when a new astronomy cast shows up and it's near the bottom of the list even though it's the newest and should be at the top. Anyway, I understand recording things ahead of time, that makes sense, I guess I just need to get used to the dates in iTunes. In some ways actually having the old dates makes sense since anything that happened in the world since the recording date obviously would be unknown to the hosts and not taken into account in their podcast. :) So, if I want my unhead postcasts to truly be played in historical chronological order, then this is actually correct. :) Thanks for the info Kevin.

As I understand it the aim is to release the shows regularly, optimally on a weekly basis. When they are recorded is a different matter! As Pamela has a busy schedule, and is often on the road, it's not uncommon for multiple episodes to be recorded at the same time. If you listen to a few shows you'll hear Frazer making comments about this. The shows may be released, however, over a couple of weeks and not at the same time. A show recorded on a given date may take a few weeks until it's finally released. I must admit that I find this also a little off-putting at times. If you're aware of the problem then it's not too big a deal. I think this problem could be cleared by saying 'recorded on' when saying the date. By saying 'the show for..' it's a little confusing. Either that or plan ahead and know before recording when the show will be released, and use this date instead? I know that the Skeptic's Guide to the Universe suffers from the same problem.

-What is energy? What is a force?
