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.

Whoo new podcasts. Thought I should regurgitate this thread, especially since I'm looking for a couple new podcasts for my daily commute. Here's what I have so nowadays:



The list:

• A.V. Talk: People from The Onion talkin' about movies. Pretty entertaining.
• Battleship Pretension: Couple of guys mostly chatting about movies. Sometimes other stuff. It's okay.
• CH Originals: CollegeHumor videos. Funny (mostly).
• Downloadable Content: Penny Arcade! creators recording their brainstorming sessions. Funny, but rarely updated (last update was about a year ago). I'm thinking about ditching it.
• The /Filmcast: Another movie discussion podcast. Not as funny as some of the other ones I have.
• Hatecast: A cynical writer from The Onion complaining about pop culture stuff. An acquired taste, but I enjoy it, which is sad because it's on indefinite hiatus. I think I have a crush on the hostess, too.
• ill doctrine: Some dude talking about hip-hop and politics and whatnot. Pretty cool.
• infoMania: Insanely witty TV show about pop culture and media.
• A Little Bit of Python: Boring but informative podcast about the Python programming language (which I use every day at work, so I feel obligated to keep up with it).
• The Moth Podcast: People telling funny or insightful stories, mostly at open mic nights hosted by The Moth. Always a treat. I wish it was updated more often.
• Rachel Maddow: Rachel Maddow's news show. I actually rarely watch this, and iTunes even stopped updating it automatically for me, but sometimes it's interesting.
• NPR: Planet Money: NPR people explaining how Wall Street f*cked up our economy.
• nybooks.com: The podcast of the magazine I work for.
• Onion News Network: Funny news spots from The Onion.
• RISK!: Funny people telling funny stories. A bit more risqué than The Moth. Haven't listened to much yet.
• Rotten Tomatoes Show: Movie show hosted by a guy from infoMania. Generally fun to watch.
• This American Life: Perhaps the best show on American radio.
• Writers at Cornell: Interviews with visiting writers at Cornell.

I've become seriously addicted to The Moth and This American Life, so if anyone knows any podcasts with similar content, I'd appreciate suggestions.
