On some podcasts I like and some I lack

Friday, February 19th, 2010

I have recently taken to lis­ten­ing to audio pod­casts while at work and I find it to be a good com­bi­na­tion of enter­tain­ing and informative.

The set of pod­casts that I am cur­rently lis­ten­ing to is:

For the most part, I’m quite pleased by the set of pod­casts that I lis­ten to and a great many of them are either bal­anced or agenda-free (e.g. The Splendid Table) but oth­ers carry rather strong slants/agendas (e.g. Skeptics’ Guide), which is fine. However, the slants and agen­das that are typ­i­fied in the pod­casts that I lis­ten to are ones that I agree with and, as such, they don’t push me or make me think as hard as I would like. To that end, I am inter­ested in hunt­ing down some high qual­ity pod­casts that I dis­agree with.

I am putting the call out to you, Internet, what are some good con­ser­v­a­tive, lib­er­tar­ian, military-industrial, etc. pod­casts for me to lis­ten to?
