Thread: Podcasts to Die for?

  1. Default Podcasts to Die for?

    I've owned an Ipod for several years now with the same 20 or so songs on it.

    For whatever reason I was in Sam's the other day and bought a new Itouch Ipod (gave my old video Ipod to my teenager).

    I put the same 30 or so songs on my new Itouch and went to iTunes to buy a few more.

    That is when the podcasts on iTunes caught my eye.

    WOW - there is some great free stuff there. I was like a kid in a candy store... My favorites so far are...
    1. Several different NPR podcasts.
    2. Deadliest Catch video podcast
    3. Dirty Jobs video podcast
    4. Car Talk
    5. NewsWeek
    6. Alive in Bagdad
    7. Discovery Channel's video podcast
    8. LifeChurch audio sermons
    9. New Yorker
    10. 60 Minutes

    What are you your favorite podcasts (hopefully free)?

    Bailjumper,

    If you aren't already familiar with This American Life you must get acquainted! It's a hard show to describe as it is about whatever the host, Ira Glaser, wants it to be about. Sometimes it's four different stories with a theme, sometimes a full one-hour on one topic, sometimes very funny, sometimes very serious. One of a kind. I think you would like it.

    Each week's episode is a free .mp3 download. All past episodes are .99 each.

    It's a vodcast but Tikibar TV is hilarious and educational.

    GeekBrief vodcasts for all your technology news.

    Another vodcast: Zap root is really good and informative with respect to environmental issues.
    Zap Root - Be Keen, Think Green, think Zaproot!

    A lot of people like Grammar Girl, and many more should listen to it more frequently.
    Quick & Dirty Tips :: Grammar Girl

    The Wood Whisperer is a good vodcast if you are into woodworking.

    Make Magazine vodcasts are great if you are into building stuff with technology
    MAKE: Videos

    Cool Hunting vodcasts are neat if you are into Art and Design

    TED Talks (Technology Entertainment and Design) are lectures by creators, leaders and visionaries. This is video but you could easily skip the vidoe and go audio only.

    Anyone interested in watching vodcasts on their computer for free (without going through Itunes) check out Miro.

    Anyone else have a vodcast they like?

    I like SModcast by Kevin Smith and Scott Mosier (the guys who brought us Clerks and their spawn)

    Distorted View by Tim Henson (Not for the kiddies)

    Comic Geek Speak by various (Yes, I am a big geek)

    This American Life the best radio program on the air is also the best podcast. Nuff Said.
