I walk in the morning and have been listening to the radio function of my ipod. Been listening to some good talk shows and podcasts. What are your favorites? I always like training topics, but any topic will do.

Thanks!

Yup.

I would give a strong recommendation to Penn's Sunday School. Even if you're lacking the libertarian bent he's told some stories that had me laughing so hard I could barely breathe.

If you like sports, then ESPNs podcenter: http://espn.go.com/espnradio/podcast/

and Grantland's Podcasts: http://www.grantland.com/podcasts.... are both good.

I've heard good things about Grandland but I keep forgetting to download it.

A&G

On occasion:
This American Life
Ext. 720 w/ Milt Rosenberg (a definite political bent, but he has good guests)
+1 on Grantland

If you like news type stuff, check out the podcasts from BBC and Al Jazeera (not kidding)-- much better for international news and perspectives than anything in the US. I've been meaning to check some of the stuff from the Economist and the Financial Times, but haven't gotten around to it.

Good and brave call on Al Jazeera. Their coverage is actually pretty good.

I have become pretty disappointing with the quality of the news on BBC's website but haven't checked out their podcasts.

The Best of Art Bell

BBC's Shakespeare's Restless World

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/features/sh ... ess-world/

There are only about 20 episodes, and each is approximately 12 minutes.

Sound Opinions: Music reviews, commentary, history. http://www.soundopinions.org/

Freakonomics: a podcast much like the books. http://www.freakonomics.com/category/fr ... /podcasts/

Radioloab: Science, but very digestable and interesting. http://www.radiolab.org/series/podcasts/

This American Life: the gold standard.

Planet Money: Economics in plain language. Really well done. http://www.npr.org/templates/archives/a ... =127413729

Stay the fuck away from the Jim Florentine podcast. It's nothing but fucking misery. What a miserable unfunny cocksucker.

What EZ said, plus FitzDog Radio (Greg Fitzsimmons), Monday Morning Podcast (Bill Burr), and if you're into UFOs and shit, The Paracast.

I'm enjoying Joe Rogan's stuff. Nothing too heavy, but enjoyable.

Ah shit I keep forgetting to get Bill Burr and Greg Fitzsimmons podcasts.

I also like Walking the Room.

I wouldn't recccommend the Paracast unless someone was really into hardcore old school UFOlogy. I think Steinberg is creeepy. A fun, agendaless, general interest paranormal podcast (with terrific sound): Mysterious Universe.

Comedy-- The Best Show

I'll check out Mysterious Universe, thanks. I've been searching for a decent paranormal show since Art Bell retired (again) from C2C.

Endurance Planet was my favorite podcast until Kevin Patrick went out the door. If they have older episodes archived from beyond a year or so back, they would be worth a listen.

WSJ This Morning isn't bad for a news programme. The same could be said for Economist and Al Jazeera are similar.

Dan Benjamin's 5x5 Network is fantastic - Back to Work, Hypercritical, The Incomparable and MacPower Users are all on my regular rotation.

The BS Report is the best that I have found for sports.

Adam Carolla makes me laugh more than that time I went camping with Proto.

Uhh Yeah Dude is great - John Larroquette's hippie son and another dude

More comedy--- The Pod F. Tomcast

Dittos--- Marc Maron WTF

Throwback to old timey radio drama w/ high production values plus zombies--- We're Alive

Carolla's Ace On The House is good too.

I started listening to this and it's pretty interesting: http://www.onbeing.org/program/inward-w ... dleman/222

Good call on stitcher. It makes slapping the cheerios out of Sam's mouth much easier. Thanks.

Anything Adam Corolla. I also like Mohr Stories by Jay Mohr.
