The Peabody Award-winning "Studio 360 with Kurt Andersen," from PRI and WNYC, is public radio’s smart and surprising guide to what's happening in pop culture and the arts. Each week, Kurt Andersen introduces you to the people who are creating and shaping our culture. Life is busy - so let "Studio 360" steer you to the must-see movie this weekend, the next book for your nightstand, or the song that will change your life.
The New Yorker: Out Loud and the New Yorker: Fiction podcasts are also brilliant. I really enjoy Backstory with the American History Guys - think 'Car Talk' with 3 historians who each specialize in a different century of US history. Also, NPR's TED Radio Hour curates the TED content (and adds in occasional interview bits) such that you can actually listen to content from 3+ TED talks straight without your mental teeth rotting out of your head from sheer, ah, exuberance of optimism.
