My Favorite Podcasts

If you got an iPod for Christmas and have not yet explored the world of podcasting...repent.

Free audio and video from all over the world, downloaded every night while I sleep? What's cooler than that? Okay, a day off in Summit County with over 12 inches of fresh powder is cooler than that, but you know what I mean.

My favorite podcasts, by category:

News:
  • NPR: 7am ET News Summary
  • This Week in The Economist
  • BBC: World Today Select
  • The Onion Radio News

Preaching:
  • Desiring God (The ministry of John Piper)
  • Capitol Hill Baptist Church (CHBC)
  • Mars Hill Church: Everything Audio
  • Covenant Life Church
  • The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary Chapel Messages (I like the faculty much more than some of the visiting pastors who preach in chapel.)

Continuing Education for Any American:
  • 60-Second Science from the National Science Foundation
  • The Princeton Review Vocabulary Minute
  • Grammar Girls Quick and Dirty Tips
  • Brain Food
Entertainment & Culture:
  • BCO Morning Show Podcast
  • DontBeThatGuyFilms
  • The Onion Radio News (worth listing twice)
  • Ask A Ninja - iPod
Coolest Video Podcasts:
  • National Geographic Video Shorts (have you seen Octopus vs. Shark?)
  • Freeskier Magazine Podcast (the winner by far)
Let me know if you think any other podcasts are worth subscribing to.
