Katie and I are hoping to provide a practical resource for teachers who use laptops in the classroom. I'll be interested to hear your take as we get a few episodes under our belt. It seems you and I share similar tastes in podcasts - many that make your list are also some of my top favorites. A couple to add: American Public Media's Future Tense (http://www.publicradio.org/columns/futuretense/) is a great source of short updates on current technology hot topics. The Apple Learning Interchange Conference Connections (http://edcommunity.apple.com/ali/collection.php?collectionID=373) podcasts conference sessions from education and technology conferences from around the globe. Make Magazine (http://blog.makezine.com/archive/make_podcast/) just for the sheer fun of seeing what they'll come up with next! Michelle Thanks for adding Always On to your list!

I'll definitely have to check some of those out. Maybe when over spring break when I'll have a little more time to take in podcasts. @<strong>Damian</strong>: I wouldn't be embarrassed about not listening to education-related podcasts on a regular basis. To be honest, most of my education podcasts are what I listen to once I've caught up on everything else. Perhaps it's because the education podcasts are more "homemade" and lack that finished production most of the others have. Nice suggestions! I’ll definitely have to check some of those out.

Savage Love: Dan Savage, whose weekly column appears in The Onion AV Club as well as newspapers nationwide, take calls from listeners and dispenses sex/relationship advice. Islamophonic: Riazat Butt from The Guardian presents a monthly show on contemporary issues in Islam, particularly as they pertain to young Muslims in the UK. Real Time with Bill Maher: HBO just uploads the audio from his weekly show to iTunes for free. Since I don't have HBO anymore, this is a great way for me to keep up with one of my favorite shows from that channel. Oddly (or perhaps, embarrassingly) enough, I don't listen to any education podcasts on a regular basis (though I have listened to Scott's Practical Principals show before). Maybe I'll take a few cues from your list. Football Weekly: Writers for The Guardian (UK) do a 1-hour show twice a week rounding up the soccer action from the England, Germany, and Spain.
