Podcast is Kneedraggin' Pre Laguna '07

This podcast is directed towards sport bike riders who are fans of such motorcycle races as Moto GP, AMA, & Superbikes. In this podcast the author shares his previews of multiple upcoming races. The podcast is very casual, keeping it relaxed. The author does a nice job of going through each race class and stating his predictions and why. The informal tone allows the listener to hear the podcast as a casual conversation instead of a speech. This helps to keep the listener's attention and keep it exciting. Sound quality is good, with speech easy to understand.

Question:
Do you think the use of word fillers (um, uh) helps to keep the podcast informal or seem unorganized?

I agree that it is a rather informal podcast. I liked how it was short and to the point. He didn't digress from what he wanted to talk about. He said he was going to try to record some stuff while riding on his motorcycle, is that safe.
