I need more podcasts to listen too as I'm switching over from music when I'm excercising. Preferably, something I can learn from. I am not interested in listening to mindless banter from Ricky Gervais* or some other pop culture icon. Preferably something political, socio-economical or scientific.

* I have nothing against Ricky Gervais. He is funny. But I know he has a podcast and people will recommend it.

I listen to a metric fuckton of podcasts, most either painfully liberal or videogame based so you would probably hate them, but one i found myself listening to lately is this one called 'the paranormal podcast'. Its meant to be some 'we believe, the truth is out there' show but honestly i find it fucking riveting in a comedic sense.
All the circle jerking about 'the crystal on the string senses energy, we dont know what that is, but its energy' and how they get into it is pretty damn funny and very entertaining for all the wrong reasons.

Not my favorites, but I do "tune in" from time to time.

Preferably something political...

I have just the podcast for you:

No Agenda with Adam Curry & John C. Dvorak (http://www.noagendashow.com)

Great show if you're interested in politics and how the media manipulates the news. Best news deconstruction done by any podcast, period, end of story.

Not a problem, man, glad I could be of assistance. ;)

I've been a HUGE fan of this show since day one. It's flat-out scary some of the news deconstructions they do and how accurate most of their predictions are.

Good stuff, you won't be disappointed if you're into this kinda thing.
