getting bored at work, need audio

[Kire]

If you have links to interesting podcasts, radio shows, etc., put 'em here. I listen to music or liberal radio, but that stuff gets old...I'd get audio books, but I really can't afford that. Any suggestions?

Library. Most libraries rent audio books. The women at my work's morning shift do it all the time.

Yahoo music launch is pretty good. You get to make your own station and play what you want. It costs $5.00 a month though, but its really good.

Just about my favorite radio show. This American Life is an excellent show for just about anyone.

It's about all sorts of things. Each show has around 3 (though it varies) stories around a central theme. Like the show about superheros had a story about what it ment to choose flight or invisibility as a power and what it ment about you as a person and society at large and a story about a woman who trained her entire life to be a superhero and what that consited of. Sometimes the themes are quirky and sometimes they are dead serious. Really entertaining and smart stuff.
