Ask HN: Podcast Recommendations?
2 points by scottjackson on Oct 29, 2009 | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments
HN,

I'm looking for a new podcast/s to listen to. Ideally I'm looking for a smart show covering topics like economics, tech, pop science, trends in new media, pop culture, etc, with the tone of Freakonomics or similar. The kinds of shows I listen to already (and totally recommend people check out): some NPR, The Sound Of Young America, East Meets West. That's the kind of thing I'm going for.

If there's a podcast you like listening to and want to tell people about but it doesn't fit the criteria above, don't let me stop you from posting it here. In the event that I don't like it, I'm sure someone else here on HN will.

I've gotta go to bed soon, but I'll check back in the morning. Talk amongst yourselves -- I'm pretty boring anyway.

Recommend away, HN!
