The Scene

here's the first episode which you can watch in your browser, note what it says "lower res, broadband connection required"
http://www.technutopia.com/videos/thescene/ep1.html

to download high resolution episodes you can go here vvv
http://www.welcometothescene.info/download.php?ep=1

the scene is about a group of people who work together to release films on the internet before they have been released to the public - they are pirates most of the show shows them on IRC/messenger talking to each other.

here's a very useful search engine called Podzinger just search for any keyword and podzinger will show you all the podcasts/vidcasts which have mentioned your search word. it will also include a paragraph showing how the word was used along with audio of that paragraph. you can then go to the home page of the podcast, or just listen to it on the podzinger search result page

Podzinger uses speech recognition software to document every word that's been said in all pod/vidcasts (speech-to-text), that's why the search results are so good.

here's a review that tells even more about it
