Way back in the early days of The Linux Experiment I came across an excellent podcast called Going Linux which offered beginners advice for those people trying out Linux for the first time or just wanting to know more about Linux in general. I so happy to see that the podcast is still going strong (now at over 300 episodes!) and wanted to mention them again here because they were very helpful in our original experiment’s goal of Going Linux.
Their mascot might actually be better than ours!

In my never-ending quest to seek out the hidden gems amongst the Linux alternative software pile I decided to take a look into what was offered in terms of podcast clients or podcatchers if you prefer. It wasn’t long into my Googling that I stumbled across a beautiful piece of software that I had never even heard of before: the Vocal podcast client.
What a nice, clean interface
Originally designed for elementaryOS this application presents a very clean, attractive interface for managing both your audio and video podcasts. It comes with a few different options like the basics – ability to stream versus download the podcasts or quickly skip forward/backward – but it was how it walked the user through setting it up the first time that actually impressed me the most. Here’s a look at that process.
When you first open the application you are presented with the following screen:
Two pretty standard options and one very intriguing one
As you can see in the screenshot there are two pretty standard options – Add a new Feed or Import Subscriptions from another application – but it was the third option that really intrigued me. So what exactly is the Vocal Starter Pack? It’s a curated list of high-quality podcasts that give a good spread of different podcast types and topics, a perfect place for a new user to start getting into podcasts. Seriously this is a really awesome idea!
The Starter Pack imports just like any other export you may have brought over
So once you’ve select your podcasts or imported them you can begin the fun part – the actual listening or watching of your episodes. Selecting an audio episode will display the embedded show notes and other information about it. This is a neat touch and lets you quickly see what other episodes are in the feed that you may want to listen to as well.
Podcast feed and related info
Or if video podcasts are more your thing Vocal has you covered there as well.
That’s an unfortunate screenshot
Overall for as simple as this application is I’m very impressed with Vocal. Sure it only does the basics but it does it really well! If the feature set of the upcoming version 2 is anything to go by Vocal has a good future ahead of it (What? Built in iTunes store podcast browser? Heck yeah!).
