    Anyone got any favourite technology podcasts (as distinct from gaming podcasts?)

    One podcast I found recently is Buzz Out Loud (from c|net). A weekly podcast with likeable hosts and good content from across the tech spectrum - from facebook to twitter, iphone to android, tech news and more. A great, enjoyable listen.

    I know Leo Laporte's stuff is well regarded, but the guy has a voice that will cure insomnia. Sends me right off....

    Anyone got any other favourites?

    Started listening to The Vergecast recently. It's got the former Engadget podcast hosts (Joshua Topolsky, Nilay Patel, and Paul Miller), so you'll know if you'd be into it or not as it's mostly the same format as that.

    I also listen to This is Only a Test. If you listen to the Giant Bombcast you'll probably have heard of Will Smith and Norman Chan as they work in the same office.

    Is that the one that has one of the girls that was in 'Bits', the Channel 4 video game show from years ago. Just caught a glimpse of it while browsing iTunes and was thinking of giving it a listen

    Whenever I hear the words "George", "Hook" and "Technology", I'm always reminded of this video.... Makes me laugh every time. :)

    I like NPR Technology. It's a round up of all the techy bits from National Public Radio in the US.

    Twits stuff is good, Leo is scaling down his appearances on it.

    (Personally I love Leo)
