I'm really getting into these. I recently downloaded the Adam & Joe XFM podcast which is great.

Can anyone suggest some must have podcasts and audiobooks?

Mods: Please move this if you need to.

Radio 4 comedies are worth listening to - "The Now show" or "The News Quiz".

Top Of The Pods

A show about top 10 lists of anything and everything, although sadly Jon & Rob seem to have stopped making shows, there are still lots of funny stuff to listen to.

No probs.
By the way, my Adam & Joe recommendation is their current BBC6 one, not the old XFM one.

How boring are you? The Economist is available in a full audio addition now (weekly) and it's superb - if you like that kind of thing!

The ricky gervais / stephen merchant / karl pilkington podcasts were brilliant.

The recent ones were Natural History, Philosophy, The English, The Arts and Medicine.
