Notes

Marketplace (APM)

Excellent podcast-- a daily look at market trends and numbers, with a good sense of humor and approachable style. Entertaining and informative.

The Economist

Interviews with economists and market makers-- deep and technical.

EconTalk (Library of Economics and Liberty)

Probably my favorite podcast on economics. In-depth yet approachable interviews with economics experts from acadamia and industry on a wide variety of subjects.

Fareed Zakaria's GPS podcast

I can't believe CNN provides this program for free via podcast. Zakaria is an incredible intellect, and brings in great guests for in-depth discussions of world events. A surprisingly global view for U.S. mainstream media.

BBC Radio - Global News

Great daily podcast of world news from the BBC. I listen to it every morning on my way to work.

President Obama's weekly Internet address

Obama addresses the nation every week via a podcast and youtube.

Windows Weekly

An entertaining look at the products and goings on at Microsoft by tech reporter (and college buddy) Paul Thurrott.

Security Now

Steve Gibson is a security expert who goes deep on a subject every week relating to network and computer security. He's "bat shit crazy" but that just makes it more fun. He has a great ability to describe highly technical subjects accurately without losing the audience.
