I listen to the BBC news in Spanish, and to Dr Elmer Huerta’s little five-minute medical note thingies. I really only listen to podcasts while working out at the gym or cooking dinner–otherwise, like Tamzen, the verbal part of my brain is busy and I can’t concentrate. I like the aspect of working on three useful things (getting the news, practicing Spanish, and working out) at once….

@Tamzen – I have a similar issue with digesting information in an auditory form unless I’m specifically focusing on whatever is being said. I tend to just put things on in the background and tune in once and a while. It’s the same way with the radio while I’m driving.
@Martin – No problem. It was a good show, and I will probably listen to it again.

I only listen to a few, Stackoverflow and Security now(Nice thing about podcasts…you can skip the ads). I listen because although I read a lot of the same information online sometimes it’s nice to be hear a discussion instead of always reading, reading, reading. I also have to get some work done too so I listen to them at work. I can’t spend all day surfing. It

pauldotcom.com is very funny and often inspirating,
Network Security podcast – I think they often know what they’re talking about
One Man And His Mic – best demoscene podcast ever :-)
Hacker Public Radio – sometimes they should have better audio quality!!
Chaosradio (Express) – CCC podcasts, the international one is in english. Express features technical topics like PyPy or so.
Off The Hook – yes, the radio show gets podcasted, too
OnMicrosoft/Software – sometimes interesting
Security Now – too much ads, even in the rss feed, but it’s still in the list.
webcast.berkeley – they’ve sometimes very interesting readings they podcast, even about computer science and information security
I added some new podcasts, thx :-)

In our Time from BBC 4 – very little intellectual audio programming these days, IOT at least tries.
I used to listen to MJR’s podcasts when he did them. He’s smart.
I just listened to Adam on the Network Security Podcast today, actually.
Outside of that – does timeshifting/downloading KCRW count as a podcast?

Wait Wait, Don’t Tell Me, if I don’t catch the show.
Excellent French Pod Class which I am way behind on, because I would like to improve my rusty French.
Irish and Celtic Music Podcast and Celtic Myth Podshow because I love all things Celtic.
I tried listening to tech podcasts but found it very hard both because of the technical quality of the shows and the fact that I can’t listen to voice and get information out of it unless I am doing absolutely nothing else and those times are not often enough. I can’t have it on as background. I’m bad with audio books that way too.

I don’t. Most of my web surfing is at work. I have very limited radio time.
