This Week in Photo and Photofocus podcasts 2.5***



When I originally started listening to This Week in Photo (TWIP) I loved it. A group of entertaining males talking about photography irreverently. The news items that they selected and discussed were interesting and it was interesting to hear their diverse views. But it seems to have gotten repetitious and long. This is the first casualty of my culling process, but I still may look in on the gang once in a month or so. I'm not sure if I dropped it because the format is tired, or I am tired of the format.

Scott Bourne was originally on (TWIP) and eventually started Photofocus, which is a one-hour podcast of questions and answers only. I have kept photofocus on my playlist although I rank them equally. Scott Bourne is the consummate professional and marketer with a golden voice. He probably has the most sponsors, but you can accept them in this format. Even if it is a bit repetitious after a while, they always have something that you should learn.
