3 Podcasts you Should listen too!

Ok people, I'm a bit of a podcast whore and listen to quite a few on a few different subjects and I want to know what everyone else listens too. So whats your fave podcasts and why should I listen

My faves and the ones I think you should all listen too:

1. Slice of Sci-Fi http://www.sliceofscifi.com/
Covers all the latest news on sci-fi related tv shows and movies with interviews with creators and stars of different series and movies (they have had several interviews with different cast members of Battlestar Galactica - interesting to see how different they are from their characters lol). Excellent way of keeping up with Sci-fi related news and gossip

2.Geeks On http://www.geekson.com/
Geekson is a (mostly) bi-monthly show created by geeks, for geeks, covering topics that geeks like to talk about. Movies, Sci-fi, Video Games, Comics, TV, Internet. Just a great way of keeping in touch with your inner geek

3.Astronomy Cast http://www.astronomycast.com/
No need to explain about this one. Awesome podcast on all things astronomy.

1) Starstuff: http://www.abc.net.au/science/podcast/starstuff.xml
Excellent, excellent, excellent. Nothing like it elsewhere, we're so lucky to still have it going as a podcast even though the ABC took the show off air

2) AstronomyCast (previously mentioned)

3) Cranky Geeks: http://www.crankygeeks.com/
This appeals to the software developer in me. It's not astronomy related at all. A bunch of cranky hosts talking about current news in the IT world. I find it strangely entertaining and informative

... I almost put 365 Days of Astronomy in the top 3, but I find many of them boring and they're of a lower production quality, so it doesn't rate above the others for me.

Roger.
