Reccomended Podcasts
Hey, I just got an iPod and I was wondering what folks 'round here would reccomend I subscribe to for Podcasts. I'm really looking for a good news podcast, but anything else you can reccomend would be great as well.
If the podcast you reccomend can't be found on the iTunes store, a link would be very helpful as well. Thanks!
EDIT: For the record, I have already subscribed to CNN: In case you missed it.

Tony Martin's Get This.
A radio show from Australia, probably the best thing we have on radio. I listen to it constantly, it's pretty awesome. If you listen to the one called "Scodcast", you'll hear me at the end when I call in to the show.

That we dying younger hiding from the police man over there
Just for breathing in the air they wanna leave me in the chair
Electric shocking body rocking beat streeting me to death"

"I think it’s the duty of the comedian to find out where the line is drawn and cross it deliberately."

I love the smell of September in the morning. Once we got off at Richmond, walked up to the 'G, and there was no game on. Not one footballer in sight. But that cut grass smell, spring rain...it smelt like victory.
Dynamic. When [Kuznetsov] decided he was going to make a difference, he did it...Like Ovechkin...then you find out - he's with Washington too? You're kidding. - Ron Wilson

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."
I personally enjoy the Writers' Almanac podcast. All sorts of interesting facts read by Garrison Keillor. What more could you want?
'After 9/11, it was "You're with us or your with the terrorists." Now its "You're with Straha or you support racism."' ' - The Romulan Republic
'You're a bully putting on an air of civility while saying that everything western and/or capitalistic must be bad, and a lot of other posters (loomer, Stas Bush, Gandalf) are also going along with it for their own personal reasons (Stas in particular is looking through rose colored glasses)' - Darth Yan

Point of Inquiry is another good one in the same vein. Back in February, they came out with the best interview with Dawkins that I've ever heard, and that was what got me interested in it. It's got a lot of debunking of paranormal and religious claims and that sort of thing. Sam Harris and James Randi have also been interviewed on there, so they get some pretty good guests.Sidious wrote:The Skeptics Guide to the Universe has been my favorite for a while now.

Edit: I almost forgot. Some atheist group in Austin, Texas has a TV show that airs every Sunday morning, and they release the audio soundtrack as a podcast. They're very logical and pretty funny. I think their podcast is called The Atheist Experience. As far as I can tell, there's not much lost to the difference between audio and video - the show sounds like it's supposed to be a radio show.
Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs, you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes you can do these things... their number is negligible and they are stupid. --Dwight D. Eisenhower
