Default Favourite podcasts?

Which are your favourite podcasts?

My work affords me time to listen to quite a bit to my portable audio device. My previous one did not make podcasts workable, the current one does. So, I have started going deep into the archives of several shows and was looking to queue up some more.

Here are my current favourites, top group is tech related, bottom everything else:

Space Rocket History Title says it all. I have sent off a donation to help the show. Went to the very beginning and have listened to all the episodes. Suggest setting playback speed to 1.3x
Astronomy Cast A bit far ranging. Very nice interaction between the 2 presenters.

Moby Dick big read Available from their website. A number of actors, each reading one chapter from the novel. I quite enjoyed this.
Today's Top Tune A free download of a song. Each is only available for about 24 hours.

Hi,
One of the guys I like to listen to on the radio is Dave Ramsey. He teaches the 7 baby steps to financial peace.
Dave Ramsey Show

I agree with his teachings.

Regards,
Matt

He has some sound conservative advice but I find the religious stuff off-putting.

The History of Rome
It's archived, and a few of the earlier episodes have some technical issues, but the content is excellent.

I like the stupid stuff on Youtube, BroKen podcast with the youtuber pewdiepie, Rooster Teeth podcasts and the "Co-optional" podcast with a British dude I know nothing about except he was high in the youtube listings when I googled for podcasts.

Oh and the Creature Talk stuff is also delightfully retarded, not Three Stooges retarded, just 4-5 reasonably intelligent dudes doing what they do best, entertaining people by being normal guys. Oh, and lately there's been silly quizzes taken off the Internet, not sure why they do that.
