iTunes Podcasts Options

[brooklyneast05]

i can't remember really if i made a topic on this before, it seems like i could have. anyway, does anyone listen to podcasts on itunes? if so, which ones? any suggestions of good ones?

if you have itunes and you don't know what they are, you should check em out. they're free and they have podcasts on basically anything in the world that you might be interested in.

Ah, I'm glad this was bumped; I wanted to post a thread about podcasts but the only one I saw was almost a year old, so I was going to start a new one. (At any rate, I'm going to move this to The Lounge since podcasts aren't only about music.)

Anyway, I know podcasts are old news for most people, but I never really had a computer that could handle video before so I never took much notice to podcasts. However, I got a shiny new computer a bit over a month ago, and now I've gotten more into them. Here are the podcasts to which I currently subscribe:

• Democracy Now! Video, the video podcast for the Democracy Now! news program
• Dilbert Animated Cartoons, which are really short (< 30 sec.) Dilbert animated shows (not nearly as funny as the comic strip, but fun)
• Django Screencasts, a podcast about the Django web framework (which, of course, powers my web site)
• Downloadable Content, the Penny Arcade podcast, which is just general humor from the writers of the Penny Arcade comic strip (my favorite online comic)
• Onion News Network, the video broadcasting arm of The Onion
• The Onion Radio News, The Onion's radio news program
• Railscasts, a podcast about Ruby on Rails
• This Week in Django, a podcast about new developments with the Django web framework

Anyone have any other interesting recommendations, particularly podcasts about film or literature?
