Ira Glass is a 30 year public radio broadcaster in the United States. In this four part YouTube series he explains the essence of a good story, what makes it good and what keeps people listening.

He makes an excellent comment on taste – that as podcasters we should be prepared to put out a whole heap of crap, until we are able to meet our own excellent taste. In other words, don’t give up before you actually meet your own high standards. It’s a good lesson.
