Podcasts

Not exactly a proper blog post but hopefully something I can get feedback on.

My job is very repetitious and mind numbing, ending up with my listening to a LOT of podcasts to get through my shift. So here's what I listen to with commentary, and Im always looking for more.

The Naked Scientists - Active - a wonderful British science 'cast that rates very highly in my book
A History of the World in 100 Objects - Ended- this fascinating podcast has sadly finished, I really need to try and see if mp3s of it will fit on a cd for car rides
All Things Medieval - Podfade? - the podcast looks to have faded, but was highly useful for what was there
Astronomy Cast - Active - a good fact based podcast, the tangents are fairly amusing
Celtic Myth Podcast - In Limbo - stories (especially legends), songs and talk about Celtic people - currently on hiatus due to major health issues with one of the hosts
British History 101 - Inactive - an interesting analysis of British Historical events, either podfaded or on hiatus
Dan Carlin's Hardcore History - Active - Im still catching up on this podcast, the episodes Ive listened to are fairly thought provoking
Digital Planet - Active - more radio podcasts from the BBC covering modern technology with a much more global take than any American radio show Ive heard
Dragons Landing - In Limbo - I dont know what has happened with this podcast. The original hosts have been gone for months and the secondary hosts they had covering, while excellent and some of my favorite, have not been consistent in releases at all
Fear the Boot - Active - probably my favorite rpg podcast with a blend of hosts that suit all my tastes in games. If you haven't listened, look through their back catalog and try an episode on a topic you enjoy.
The Game's the Thing - active but slow - while it bills itself as a podcast on tabletop games, this is essentially a Savage Worlds podcast, atleast in the last year or two
Material World - active - fairly deep podcast on science topics from the BBC
Medieval Podcast - podfade - I had high hopes for this podcast but it looks to be dead
Naked Archaeology - active - a wonderful archeology podcast from the crew behind Naked Scientists, single complaint is its monthly release schedule
NPR: Science Friday - active - I really dislike the way the podcasts are released (each topic is a separate file) and fact checking has been somewhat suspect, but the prestige of the program and its host has allowed them to get some great guests on
Postcards from the Dungeon - active - a good podcast about mining various media for inspiration and tropes in RPGs
Roll for Initiative - active - focusing on 1st edition AD&D this podcast has some very nice focus and is useful for OSR games
RPG Circus - active - this podcast can be a bit hit or miss for me as it spends too much time on industry news (there are only a very small handful of in print games I care about and I can keep an eye on them myself, and I couldnt care less about 4e DnD) and the rpg blogosphere but there have been some excellent discussions to balance that out
Save or Die - active - a nicely focused podcast on Classic D&D (from Little Brown Books to Rules Cyclopedia) that is very useful to me, the only problem is sound quality and volume on bumpers as they can get painfully loud
Science in Action - active - more science from BBC
The Secrets Podcast for Writers - inactive - a solid podcast from Michael Stackpole, it almost makes up for his exploding fusion reactors....
Skeptics Guide to the Universe - active - a skeptics podcast that can teach some wonderful lessons in critical thinking and logic, at the cost of whatever part of you didnt think people are worthless, lying fools
Smiling Jacks Bar and Grill - active - from the Game's the Thing crew, this is admittedly Savage Worlds centric but  good, other than a quarterly release schedule
Spoken Lore - inactive? - Reading the Eddas and the Sagas out loud, this podcast would be great, if the audio setup was consistent
Stone Pages Archaeo News - active - a charming archaeology podcast with a Scottish host, very informative and hilarious to listen to him try to pronounce Middle Eastern location names
That's How We Roll - inactive? - Evil Hat's podcast, looks to be inactive, but Fred Hicks is a smart gamer
TrapCast - inactive? - the only podcast with someone on it Ive gamed with, this bizarre little podcast has gone quiet for longer than advertised

So if there are any Old School or science podcasts Im missing out on, Id be interested to know
