Since this thread began I listened to many of the suggestions and have become absolutely obsessed with Podcasts. I have listened to the entire “History of the World in 100 Objects” that was recommended and can say that it was fantastic. The Dan Carlin Podcasts are excellent as well. I religiously listen to many daily podcasts that I have found and that were recommended. As a sports fanatic I have found these to be excellent ways to stay informed in sports. I have also found a couple of daily news podcasts that I quite enjoy. Here are some of the ones that I have enjoyed.
