I'm assuming most of us have pretty busy lives, I've been working a few months full time now and one of the biggest things I've noticed is that I'm finding it harder and harder to make time to learn things, I'm pretty sure that the reason people are dumb is because they spend their lives either doing something dull or recovering from dull activity (this goes for those that specialise and are very smart at one thing too)
One thing that helps is Podcasts, being able to be able to listen to what I want to is awesome.
Here's my list, if you enjoy listening to any Podcasts, speak up.

Recommended :
Best Of Youtube - title explains it I think
Pat Condell's Godless Comedy - Badass guy that in the atheist thread
A Point of View - BBC Podcast, David Attenborough tells you how much amber rocks, or how kickass the komodo dragon he saw last week was
A State of Trance - Armin van Buuren's trance Podcast, 20 minutes of bliss.
The Onion Radio News - You know it.
Onion News Network (video) - More lulz, less often.

heurisdick · 12-09-2010, 08:19 PM

The Freakonomics podcast is pretty good

Beebs · 12-09-2010, 08:35 PM

I also use iTunes U quite a bit iTunes U

heurisdick · 12-09-2010, 08:54 PM

HowStuffWorks.com has several podcasts in different categories. A few are pretty interesting. "Stuff You Should Know" is the best.

Beebs · 07-22-2011, 12:57 PM

As mentioned in video of the day: The Joe Rogan Experience

Also The Proper Gander — Playback Media (See what they did there?) mostly UK comedians covering the news; on a break since they also do soccer podcasts and are off until the season starts

Dent · 08-04-2012, 04:19 PM

BBC - Podcasts and Downloads - A Brief History of Mathematics

Ugly Bastard · 12-28-2012, 09:26 PM

If it hasn't been mentioned, Duncan Trussell's podcast (Google it, I'm on my phone) are usually hilarious and occasionally enlightening.

Dent · 01-13-2013, 04:51 PM

Big Picture Science
enjoyed listening to the "before the big bang" episode
Sean Carroll makes had a brief word, and some cool Russian guy

Repugnant Abomination · 01-13-2013, 11:06 PM

Trusell's podcast is great. Rogan just had Neil deGrasse Tyson on his and it was awesome.

Dent · 01-29-2013, 09:23 AM

From last nights podcast, on solving baldness in mice and applying it to humans
"We’re heading closer to going to one of the 400 or so subsystems around the body and stopping it from aging, and when we can do this to all 400 or so subsystems then we can keep you at an 18-25 year old body for- ind- well who knows how long."
