Speeding up Netcasts on Linux with SoX | Ghodmode.com
The technical solution to my earlier bookmark. Use at risk to your sanity!

The way I prefer to do it uses Sound eXchange, or SoX, to manipulate the tempo of the audio file so that it's faster, but the voices still sound normal.
Faster... for your listening pleasure | Ghodmode.com
An entertaining (but quite possibly useful) suggestion here. I tend to rewind podcasts because I miss things, but this could paradoxically help. I think speeding up may be a mistake for "In Our Time" or "This American Life", and if a podcast is so boring that you want to speed it up, perhaps you should unsubscribe from it. No technical details here, just an idea.

Even though the sound of the sped up voices was terrible, I found that I enjoyed the podcasts more and listened with greater interest.
Smaltalk and AppleScript - 2008 - James Robertson, Cincom
** a higher resolution video is linked here - unlike the YouTube version, you can actually see the code here ! **
Jarober (author of BottomFeeder) writes a quick "Applescript generator" on the fly in Smalltalk, to grab some data from BottomFeeder and send it to iTunes. Just shows that James Robertson is always thinking of getting objects to send useful messages to other objects.
