But sometimes it takes a long, long time.  I signed up for the NPR classical music newsletter one year ago, and the item that keeps popping regularly is their Tiny Desk concert series.  As the name implies, it’s a short concert of three our four songs by a single artist.

A few weeks ago, the newsletter advertised a Tiny Desk Concert with Yo Yo Ma who was making the rounds with his third recording of the Bach Cello Suites. I finally just got around to checking it out.  It’s been a year of drip, drip, drip advertising, but NPR is finally back in my podcast feed.

Postscript, word of mouth also works, I just watched Grosse Pointe Blank after my buddy told me about it in 2008.  And yes, a decade later it was indeed great fun.
