What are your recommendations?



For funnies I like:

The Complete Guide to Everything

Dinobrain!

Comedy Death Ray Radio

Onion Radio (audio) & Onion News Network (video)

You Look Nice Today



For stories:

Risk! True Talkes Boldly Told (not great, but some are good)

The Moth



NPR:

Wait Wait Don't Tell Me

Car Talk







1988RedT2, let me try to predict your reply: "Podcast? What's wrong with a good radio talk program on Public Radio? You kids and all your money-wasting unnecessary gadgets."

Haha!



Actually, my response is: Podcast? What's a f*ck&*%!?!ing Podcast?



Now I gotta go wiki it.



After I understand what it is, then I'll reprimand you for your requisite "Podcast" gadget!

Ah, I see that only the term is new. The technology has been kicking around for years. I remember fiddling with an app called Pointcast back in the last millennium.

Exactly!





If it hasn't been around for as long as the printing press, I call it "new".

Who said anything about Apple? Podcasts are for any MP3 player, or you can listen to them on your computer.



I go through a lot of podcasts because I listen to them all day at work, drowns out the cube chatter.

7 years and you guys dont know i'm a smartass?



I guess I'm old fashioned, I listen to regular old radio or cd's. It was hard enough changing from casette tapes to discs.



I'm not even close to wanting to do it all again, I must have 500 cd's. I know, burn it download it mp3 it, to hell with it, no patience, and slim on disipline : )
