I got an iPod nano for Christmas and am looking for ways to entertain myself on the commute.

What podcasts would you recommend?

By my friend Jason, I must admit. He also runs www.howtocreateapodcast.com, just in case you get bored.

Coverville - He is licensed to play commercial music and he plays pretty much all cover songs. He also incorporates trivia into some of his shows. Shows are 30 to 60 minutes long usually and he does 3 a week.

CBC Radio 3 - They play Canadian indie music and usually have short, humorous interview segments. Shows usually run around an hour and a new one comes every Friday.

I've recently started listening to some NPR Podcasts.

CBC Radio 3 is a good one, solo. [Smile]

What do you like? There is probably a podcast about it.

Except now that I think about it, I wonder if there is a Lego related podcast...

I also listen to and enjoy CBC Radio 3.

The CBC Radio 3 podcast is very professionally done and I really like the host, Grant Lawrence. He does a great job. He did his top 14 songs of 2005 on the December 30th show. He was going to do 15 but he was having too hard a time choosing the last track because he loved too many so he just did 14. That was actually a really good sampling of the kind of music they usually play if you are going to try it out.
