    Hi guys,

    I wondering if more of you knowledgeable folk could recommend some podcasts for?

    Ones I currently love;

    This American Life
    Radiolab
    Stuff To Blow Your Mind
    Big Picture Science
    Freakonomics
    Stuff You Should Know

    Based on the above, could anyone make any suggestions?

    I've heard about Penn's Sunday School - I'm a HUGE fan of Penn & Teller, unfortunately I can't find it on Google Listen. :(

    Any other recs for good podcast apps for Android?

    Thanks everyone! :)

    In Our Time with Melvyn Bragg on BBC Radio 4 is always worth a listen.

    99% Invisible is about 99% closer to the first two podcasts named than any others in the thread. ;)

    Love and Radio, very smart and always surprising show, with a trippy conversational format.

    Also, The Moth podcast (featuring 'true stories told live without notes', in front of a live studio audience). This is HUGE in the states, and perhaps even more influential (in its promotion of creative non-fiction to the best seller lists) than TAL.
