What Podcasts are you downloading?

What are podcasts good? Because I have them fit my schedule not the TVs.

===Open Culture, categorized podcasts===

oculture.com has a very good "Podcast Library", with categorized podcast collections. Actually, a best I have seen.
Feel free to try, and post a review here too :)

===Daily News===

I am looking at a daily news podcast that can fit into my schedule - a 30-minus mins commuter version is ideal. And as a major news source, it should be balanced and informative. I don't want to spend more time on this.

So, I looked at CNN.
They have a news feed updated hourly. Too busy - I only want a daily update. There are daily version as video feeds. No, I need my eyes for driving or something else. But I tried them anyway, "The CNN Daily" and "Now in the News -- Commuter Edition (daily)".
"The CNN Daily" is too fat: 80MB for ten minutes. And the contents? Too narrow too little. It just drives me to NPR. Then I watched several pieces of the commuter version. Too short - about three minutes with three or four stories the world certainly don't care most. It's becoming anoying if you notice the ads take up 40+ seconds.
So long, CNN.
Now I am using "BBC Radio NewsPod", which is of course more world-oriented. It's a bit long, ~37+ minutes on average.
The search continues though.
