Got pod?
If you have an iPod or other device capable of storing and playing podcasts, which ones do you subscribe to? I have a quite a few on my list that I play when I need to concentrate or when I just want to hear other people talking besides myself. They are:
Addicted to Race - it's sort of what it sounds like. I can't remember who turned me onto it...some blogger, likely. It's hard to not have some interest in race issues when you've got a chex mix kid (minus the bagel chips, though - those things are hard and nasty).
Brini Maxwell's Tips for Gracious Living - a drag queen Martha Stewart who happens to make an unbelievably attractive woman.
Brini Maxwell's Hints and Tips for a Gracious Life - a podcast version of the Style network show.
Business Week Cover Stories - some are more interesting/relevant to me than others, but it's good stuff to add to the part of your brain that stores trivia to be retrieved for cocktail party conversation
Comedy Central: Stand-Up (Video) - short little clips from stand-up routines. They're good for when you need five seconds of laughter.
Creating Wealth on Your Current Income - yeah, well...you know.
Epicurious: Food and Drink - short video how-to's on how to do things like sharpening your knives
Grammar Girl's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Writing - I have a hard time remembering the more obscure rules of grammar. Sometimes she touches on those, other times it's a great refresher.
Man and Wife - video podcast of a rapper and his wife sharing their secrets on...uh...spreading the love. Not work safe. Not child safe. It's pretty raunchy.
Motherhood Uncensored - from the writer of the like-titled blog.
MTV News (Audio): Daily Headlines - Well, I'm really just keeping an ear to the ground. I'd be quite enraged if Britney Spears got pregnant again before I do (don't hold your breath, by the way).
NPR: Wait, Wait...Don't Tell Me! - The news gameshow that comes on every Saturday afternoon that I now miss because I so rarely sit in one place for two hours.
The Accidental Creative - some guy pontificating on creativity and tapping into your inner genius.
This American Life - Another public radio favorite I never have time to catch in regular broadcast.
VH1 Best Night Ever - Video podcast of VH1 staffers talking about their favorite shows from the night before. Moderately goofy.

My list is long, so I decided to post it m'self rather than leave a novel in your comments.
You may have gotten Addicted to Race from me. That Creating Wealth on Your Current Income sounds really interesting. I'm subscribing to that right now. Wait Wait is one of my all-time faves.
