Been having too much fun with my iTouch, and have been downloading and absorbing podcasts like no tomorrow. I’d like to get some more comedy video podcasts, though. I know of Ask a Ninka, The Guild, Good Morning Burbank, the Onoin, and Break a Leg, but there’s a lot of crap out there. Have any suggestions for comedy video podcasts for me? Heck, if you’ve got a favorite regular podcast or video podcast, I’d like to know that, too. ---

I subscribe to these audio podcasts: This American Life - It’s the NPR radio show, I don’t get to catch it when it airs normally. LSAT Logic in everyday life - Short analysis exploring faulty logic in politics, the media, etc. Real Time with Bill Maher - I don’t have HBO. ---

Not comedy (and not video) but I listen to a classical programme on Radio Free Satan called [Dark Arts](http://www.radiofreesatan.com/dark_arts.html) every week (I also, incidentally, know the guy who does it). There’s a new show every Monday. ---

I do a video and audio podcast about no- and low-budget horror movies. I’m sure you’d hate it. [horrorjunk.net](http://horrorjunk.net) ---

One of my favorite podcasts is by a professor at Ohio State University, Richard Pogge. He records his Astronomy lectures and podcasts them. [http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~pogge/Ast161/Audio/](http://www.astronomy.ohio-state.edu/~pogge/Ast161/Audio/) ---

I never download them, but I like to listen to the Ongoing History of New Music online. They are available as podcasts, though. There are episodes for pretty much anyone’s taste in music!

Radio talk show host [Paul Harris](http://paulharrisonline.blogspot.com/) podcasts some of his segments. Look for his Friday segments with [Jon Macks](http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0972418/) as well as the occasional stand up comics or guys like [Bruce Campbell](http://paulharrisonline.blogspot.com/search?q=bruce+campbell) and [Bruce Vianch](http://paulharrisonline.blogspot.com/2007/09/bruce-vilanch.html). ---

😕 Those other two weren’t there when I stared on the third one, I thought they were eaten. And how come the duplicate filter didn’t catch the second one?
