MegaCarp Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 So I thought I'd start collecting cool podcasts that our nerds can listen to while at work, working out, or just something to nerd out to.

Maria Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 I listen mostly to psychology podcasts, because that is my area and I don't have time for more than these. WNYC's Radiolab Radio National's All in the mind Psychology in Everyday Life Shrink Rap Radio Wise Counsel Podcasts I also listen to a Swedish radio program where a psychologist have a ~30 min talk with someone with a problem. Very educational for general understanding about the variety of people and problems, but also how alike most of us are. SR's Radiopsykologen if someone is interested.

Garth Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 I'm partial to Colt Cabana's 'Art of Wrestling' podcast. Also, pretty much all of the podcasts that the Guardian newspaper produces but especially the tech one. Question to other podcast listeners, since I'm got rid of iTunes the only thing I miss is the autodownload function for podcasts I was subscribed to. Is there a piece of software out there that isn't horrible that can do this for me, or do I need to finally learn how to use RSS feeds? Quote Follow me on Twitter: @garth_green Link to comment
