I think I’ve found it!

Denounce is the progression of a blog reader. It focuses on discovery and exploration. Listening and reading do not require a subscription. Though still at a conceptual stage, Denounce encourages people to experience podcasts and blogs without the trappings of a standard web browser or RSS reader. A number of features are missing in this prototype (alternate subscription views, playback options, preferences, etc.), but the general experience is clear. The goal? Provide a fun and intuitive way to enjoy what matters.

Chaps my hide a bit that our show is on the third page, but I’m happy it’s there in the first place. It’s not likely to topple iTunes anytime soon, but Denounce is immediately my top choice for a podcast manager for the Windows desktop.

The Best Podcasting Client for Windows?

Let’s see if you can follow the bouncing ball, folks:

1. I find sponsors
2. I set up a giveaway
3. The community responds
4. Subscriptions surge
5. YouTube takes notice
6. iTunes puts the podcast on the front page (see image below)

Rinse and repeat.
