Rob Greenlee, Microsoft Zune Podcast Programming Lead, has introduced a new Zune podcast, Zune Insider. It’s an audio and video podcast, co-hosted by Greenlee and Zune blogger Cesar Menendez.

Microsoft Zune podcast guru Rob Greenlee brought our attention to a little-known feature in the latest Zune firmware – wireless podcast sharing:

You can now send video podcast episodes to other Zune devices using its built-in WiFi radio. This means that if you have found a cool episode from the Best of YouTube podcast that you can send it to a fellow Zune user and then that user can watch that episode on their device and subscribe to it all in the Zune device software.

While the video podcast episode is playing – just click and hold the middle of the Zune touch pad until the subscribe screen pops up. Then click on “subscribe” and when you next sync your Zune it will add a new subscription to your “Collection” area.
