I gave my dear an Ipod thingamajig for christmas & we've spent many hours searching for good podcasts
Do you have any suggestions for good podcasts??? We have the ones from NASA, CBC, BBC etc etc but thought someone might have other ones they can suggest.
Whilst i'm here..i'll throw this one out for listening pleasure. It's by a local-ish dude known for his quality photos @ WA mtb events

My husband loves The Bike Show from England:

I've listened to a couple of shows- there is an interesting one about the Brooks saddle company.

This has nothing to do with cycling, but you can sign up for a podcast of This American Life (produced by Chicago Public Radio and Public Radio International - quirky stories based on a pretty broad theme that changes each week.) at www.thislife.org . It is a really interesting show, generally quite funny.

+1 on This American Life. Also, if you like British Humor, Stephen Fry has a good podcast. Lots of the NPR shows have them. I also like audiobooks, but that's an entire other category.

Deb, where's your favorite place to get audiobooks?

I also like audible. I've quit and restarted it when I was ready several times. When you start, you can usually get $100 off the price of an ipod through Amazon. Not sure if the promotion is running right now, but if not now, it will be sometime.
A really good place for audiobooks is also your local library. I listen to audiobooks and podcasts while cleaning house and working at school.Claudia
