MTB needs transcriptions of all the podcasts, too

e24 Transcription - » 5 Reasons to Transcribe Your Podcast--I left another reason with the e24 people as well, and it was--

Here's another reason: people can scan ahead (go fast-forward) on text-based content to see what's interesting to them, and what might be boring or nonproductive. With a podcast, that's not really possible. It is possible to read faster, but it is not possible to listen faster, unless you ratchet it up to something like Alvin and the Chipmunks.
