Podcasts
I can highly recommend Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, an NPR news quiz show. Always entertaining, often LOL funny. It's available free in the podcasts section of itunes.
Also, don't miss The Moth. People stand in front of a mike and an audience and relate true stories about their lives. Sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking. Always worth listening to. It's also available free in the podcast section.

Daily M-F:
=- Adam Carolla Show. Witty chat, rants, and interesting guests. Twice a week: =- WTF with Marc Maron. A smart type of funny, Maron gets a lot out of his guests. Once a week: =- This Week with Larry Miller. The most congenial bloke in the world, just Larry and a mic. =- Jackie Kashian's The Dork Forest. Relatively unknown guests but likeable Kashian gets much from them. =- Jay Mohr's Mohrstories. Uneven until Mohr can find his legs. =- Greg Fitzsimmons Show. Abrasive but also hilarious. =- This Week in Tech/This Week in Google. Leo Laporte and top tech people discuss tech, Google. =- Skeptic's Guide to the Universe. Figuring shit out. =- Making It with Riki Lindholm. Garfunkle of Garfunkle and Oates. She is also finding her legs, but she's bright and clever so I'm optimistic. =- Todd Glass Show. Usually a marathon of over two hours, this is for hardcore podders who are willing to accept Mr Glass's weird approach. =- Stuff You Should Know. Figuring more shit out. Less than once a week: =- This American Life. The well-liked NPR radio show, now in podcast form. =- Dan Carlin's Hardcore History. Figuring shit out in the past. |

Pop Culture Happy Hour - witty discussion about the best of the latest books, movies, and music.
http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...ryId=129472378 I can also highly recommend the iPhone app Downcast for finding and listening to podcasts.

ok so like dose anyone else get really board of technology... I'm so out dated that I have to use a pretend 'time machine' to microwave chips and salsa in attempt to lure santa clause into my house just to get some coal for smashing them into diamonds like super man only the coal is really gold and I'm making diamonds out of gold. Computers are recyclable titanium tits are too...
