Podcast - TED Talks

TED talks is a podcast series that kind of covers anything and everything. Technically it's a conference that invites speakers to talk about a variety of topics, but they present the talks in a podcast format that you can download to a portable device and take with you. In that regard, they're kind of like NPR's regular programs.

Ken Robinson says schools kill creativity

This particular example is just Ken Robinson talking, but many of their podcasts have visual components, too. They're not overly long, and the speakers are generally punchy enough to hold your attention.

I guess most of all, I like that their content is forward-thinking or analytical. It's not a recitation of the news.
