Web Drifter
AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Little-known, canceled podcast fails to meet WP:N, WP:WEB, and WP:RS. Survived previous AFD with no consensus (only one "weak keep" vote). Should be deleted. -- Wikipedical (talk) 04:41, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Martin Sargent. The CNN source is great, but the other two sources on the article aren't usable to show notability for this show. I do notice that Sargent's article needs work, but I think that we could probably cobble together enough sources to show notability for him as a result of his shows and the column he ran for Wired magazine. But for this particular show? As fun as the show sounded, it just isn't notable per current Wikipedia rules due to a lack of sources.Tokyogirl79 (talk) 04:03, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Martin Sargent - Google Books provided nothing useful but Google News provided several links here (extremely minor), here (also minor) and a press release here (first result from the top but requires payment). This appears to be the only evidence of third-party coverage. Honestly, it's not surprising there are few sources, considering that he is not a nationally known personality and podcasts were new as of 2006, as with other technology.
