I just have to say I thought it was odd that no one mentioned during the show or on the forum that PodSnicker sounds so much like PotSticker.
I don't have a pod (i or otherwise) and I don't listen to podcasts except at my computer, so am rarely caught laughing for no audible (to others) reason, but even still I love this word and how it cleverly plays on PotSticker to give us PodSnicker!! I'm adopting it – if only I encounter occasions to use it.

I used to have those PodSnickers way before the days of iPods. I used to read those extremely funny comic books on the bus coming home from school. Many fellow commuters must have heard me laughing from behind my books. Is there a word for that as well…. I understand "PodSnicker", but would laughing while reading be "BookSnicker"?

So if the book's REALLY funny, it's what? A "booksnort"?
