If one is to turn the noun "a Podcast" into a verb "to Podcast", what would this verb mean?
(It kinda makes sense as a verb in English, but not in Norwegian)
Would it mean that you are downloading and listening to a Podcast, or that you are creating and publishing a Podcast?
I'm in favour of the last one, but the DJ keeps finishing his sessions with "Remember, you can Podcast us! All you have to do is visit bla bla bla" (in Norwegian, of course) and it allmost makes my ears bleed!
