I've got quite in to listening to podcasts in the car. However I'm now up to date on the Infinite Monkey Cage, and only have a few of The Life Scientific, Festival of the Spoken Nerd, and Guardian Science Weekly left. Anyone got any recommendations?

Star talk is quote good, and so is 'stuff you should know' in a general, easy to listen to type podcast.

Cheers. Spending 2 hours a day in the car at the moment so am getting through them pretty quickly.

Listened to a Star Talk about Telescopes on the way to work, the overly dramatic introductions every time they come back from an advert break is pretty annoying but the podcast was interesting.

Currently downloading the rest, plus the Naked Scientist, Material World, and In our Time: Science.

Downloaded a few TED talks but I think most need the video not just Audio

Anything with Dr Karl (he has several podcasts from different radio stations)
The Titanium Physicists
Tested (general geekery, with Adam Savage from Mythbusters)

It appears there's a Dr Karl and the Naked Scientists podcast, so I'm downloading a few of them too. Now up to about 800 podcast episodes to listen to so should keep me going for a while

Tried a naked scientist this morning (and a scantily clad mathematician last light but that's different thing) not as good as the more in depth shows like The Life Scientific, but pretty good for a magazine show.
