One podcasting authority suggests, "Technology isn't important". Another sums up the entire podcast creation process in a four-minute video. A third insists you can podcast without money, gear or experience. None of them take the time to explain what the buttons, dials, and lights all mean - they leave you to figure out the techie stuff on your own.
