I think we had this discussion before your last vacation. If you're into fiction, I'll plug three podcasts: EscapePod - http://www.escapepod.org was originally SciFi/Fantasy/Light Horror (on Halloween). Now they just do Sci-Fi because they've spun off : PodCastle - http://www.podcastle.org Which is fantasy from all around the genre and PseudoPod - http://www.pseudopod.org which supposedly is horror but I don't subscribe to it.
In all cases they follow a similar format - intro, 30 minute or so story and outro with comments. The original feed (escapepod) has been doing it for a long time. Oh, and if you have time, drop me a note and we can have coffee!
