Escape Pod and Starship Sofa are great SciFi pods where they read short works aloud.

Does anyone know what happened to Joe's D'eon's Fly With Me podcast? I went to download some new episodes for our trip to HNL this week and there hasn't been a new show since 10/2008 (which I already had). And no mention of him stopping in that episode or on his website. Anyone have any idea where Joe went?

Me too. It just seemed to stop. The podcast production values were high, he has an animated voice and the topics were interesting. Also liked the Fly with me X, behind the scenes podcast.

The content of the Travel Commons podcast is interesting, but the guy's voice is monotone and metronomically slow.

I can see that perspective, but I find Mark's voice soothing and reassuring. Be that as it may, he's thoughtful and witty. I'm a big fan.

I'm not including links for any of these because different people will use different links depending on how they listen or subscribe. Just paste the name of the podcast into the search box in your itunes, zune, juice or whatever.

Movies with Mick LaSalle
The San Francisco Chronicle movie reviewer reviews the week's new movies and opines on movie-related topics. Usually about 30 minutes a week.

Betty in the Sky with a Suitcase
This podcast was mentioned at the beginning of this thread. A flight attendant records funny stories told by flight crew. All of her podcasts are available--since they aren't time-sensitive, if you try one and like it, you will probably like the others. Variable length, irregular schedule.

The Steve Dahl Show
The Chicago radio legend's former employer is paying him to not be on the radio, but he is now podcasting an hour a day.

As It Happens
The complete nightly hour long CBC radio news program is also available as a podcast. Informative and entertaining.

The Old Codger with Courtney T. Edison
He is "playing 78 RPM records like they're going out of style." From WFMU radio in New Jersey. The podcast appears only a few times a year.

Rowdy Racing News
If you like watching them good ol' boys make left hand turns, you will enjoy this 45 minute daily NASCAR podcast. If you don't, you won't.
