Noticed this morning that your Boxee app isn't working. It launches but there are no menu items across the top. Presumably related to your site relaunch (?)
8-4 Play: Mark McD is a great host, and the other guys (and girl) are likeable too
Besties: The funniest collection of gaming podcast hosts out there
Giant Bomb: You've probably heard this one
Idle Thumbs: Irregular, but most like GFW Radio of anything out there in terms of interesting ways of looking at games
Favorite Non-Game Podcasts:
Quarter to Three Movie Podcast: These guys love their movies and are all very likeable. Tom Chick is probably the best podcast host out there, Christian Mc ... Mc ... Mc knows and loves his movies, and Kelly Wand is hilarious
Frontline: Really great documentaries.
RadioLab: A very likeable approach of discussing various scientific topics
I listen to these too but wouldn't classify them as favorites:
Three Moves Ahead: Only if either Tom Chick and/or Bruce Geryk are guests. I don't care for the hosts much. Rob is too low energy and Troy is grating.
Weekend Confirmed: They take games too seriously these days for a group that doesn't have the insight of Idle Thumbs or GFW Radio. Garnett is a good host though, and Jeff Cannata is always funny and likeable
Planet Money: A good quick bite on economics topics
Gamers With Jobs: Not bad, but getting a bit old these days
Quarter to Three Games Podcast: Not as good as their movie podcast. Tom Chick is great, but unfortunately his partner is too low energy and doesn't contribute much.
Totally Rad Show: Good for short reviews but lacks depth due to the time constraint
This American Life: Some shows are awesome, others are very mediocre. A lot of repeats.
Podcasts I once listened to regularly but stopped because they ended up losing freshness and generally becoming boring: Joystiq, Drunken Gamers Radio, RebelFM, GeekBox, MBMBAM.
