I have never felt comfortable writing biographies…what to put in, what to leave out. It’s odd. With that in mind, here goes. I grew up in Pekin…just down the road from Peoria, the youngest of four kids in a typical middle class, midwestern family. Dad owned his own business, Illini Welding Supplies. Mom stayed home.

THE WMBD PODCASTS: Peoria’s News and Talk Station, 1470 WMBD is proud to be on the cutting edge of technology. Listen to 1470 WMBD programming when you want to and where you want to. If you’re new to podcasting read on. We’re certain you’ll be amazed at what podcasting technology allows us to offer you at no charge.
WHAT IS PODCASTING:
Podcasting simply means you configure your computer to automatically download audio content. Don’t let the term ‘podcast’ fool you. You don’t need a iPod or an MP3 player. All you need is a computer and a few minutes to configure the 1470 WMBD podcast service.
THE INSTUCTIONS:
There are several ways to podcast. We’ll show you the easiest way to configure the service.
1. Download Apple’s iTunes Software
Download Apple’s iTunes software. You don’t need to own an Apple computer or their iPod player. The software is free. We suggest you go download the software by clicking on the link below and then returning to this page when you have completed the installation.
2. Select Your Feeds (Programs You Want To Listen To)
The free iTunes software should now be installed on your computer. With that assumption in mind, select the feeds (programs) you want to listen to. A list of the podcast feeds that 1470 WMBD offers is at the bottom of the page.
3. Copy The Feed Link
Put your mouse cursor over the “XML” button of the feed you want. Right click your mouse. Choose “copy shortcut” or “copy link” from the menu that pops up.
4. Subscribe in iTunes
Now, open up the iTunes software. You will see several items in a menu at the top of the screen, such as “File, Edit, Controls, etc.” Click on the “Advanced” pull-down menu. Click on “Subscribe To Podcast.”
The “Subscribe To Podcast” box will then appear. Right click your mouse while holding the pointer over that box. Select “Paste.” You should now see some text in the box. It should look something like this, “http…//jmpradio.com/bods/ml/ml.
If you do not see that text go back to this page and repeat steps 3 and 4.
If the text was copied then click on OK.
5. Download Programs
Now, prepare to receive your audio downloads. You need to know the feeds or programs you’ve subscribed to will only download when your iTunes software is running. In other words, if you’ve subscribed to the Markley and Luciano podcast, the download won’t take place until the iTunes software has been opened.
If you have an iPod, iTunes will not only download the program, but it will also place it on your iPod the next time you sync up your iPod with your computer.
