In reference to Peter's occupation before becoming an Apostle, the popes wear the Fisherman's Ring, which bears an image of the saint casting his nets from a fishing boat.

I suggest this form (x of the x) deliberately, since it sounds more biblical to than podcasting (sorry, netcasting)... |

1 hr confidence:  peer agreement (net): +1 Net casting
Explanation: A cast net, also called a throw net, is a net used for fishing. It is a circular net with small weights distributed around its edge.
The net is cast or thrown by hand in such a manner that it spreads out on the water and sinks. This technique is called net casting or net throwing. Fish are caught as the net is hauled back in.[1] This simple device has been in use, with various modifications, for thousands of years.
