Hey guys and gals!

I am sick of just listening to music on my workouts and have decided to branch out into podcasts. What a horribly overwhelmingly crazy thought! The eos so much out there, I have no idea where to start.

I am trying to find something that focuses on fitness and is funny.

What do you listen to? Any suggestions for a complete podcast newbie?

I like politics. Slate Gabfest, Democracy Now, Rachel Maddow, Thom Hartmann.

Sorry, I don't have a specific recommendation. I'm bored with music too and think audiobooks might work for me. Maybe look for a funny fitness audiobook?

I ADORE audiobooks! Use to think they were for really old and sick people. Now some may think I am old, but I do live by myself and it is great to have a book reading while I am ironing,baking, or do my number passion.....anything with needle and thread. Podcasts some frighteningly high tech but I shall check it out, because my main exercise is walking....great place to walk here in my wee town, there is a magic river leading down to the sea, the town is at the junction ...

I watched a lot of Ted Talks from the treadmill last winter -- I got a lot out of that. Right now I'm walking outdoors as the weather is fine but a few months from now I'm going to need a strategy. I have wanted to dip into audio book land, wondered about Colbert show, etc. Thanks for a great thread...I want to be a pod-cast person but have been too busy or lazy to learn how to use my phone and pad for this. Let's become power users!

I like old time radio mystery theater. These are podcasts and very fun. Who done it's and mysteries
