    I don't have an Ipod.

    But,
    If Bloomberg radio has podcasts (not sure if they do or not) and I had an Ipod, that's what I'd be listening to.

      Although I've got an iPod, I never use it for listening to podcasts. I watch/listen to podcasts from my home computer. You can download and watch them directly through iTunes.

      I currently only get the Suze Orman and Dave Ramsey podcasts (in terms of financial types).

      I also get the daily TED podcast, which are absolutely fantastic -- every weekday they post a single TED lecture, normally just 5-15 minutes long. But the great part is just the extremely wide variety of topics covered by the TED conferences, and you really learn alot and get a great perspective on the world. Can't rave enough about them.... LOVE TED!

        Great idea on the TED podcasts, I usually just watch them on iTunes U.

        I like the Dave Ramsey podcasts as well, but I usually try to catch the live radio version (online) whenever possible.

          I listen to Dave Ramsey because it keeps me motivated to hear people get out of debt. But the show is repeatative, so I also listen to:

          Freakanomics which talks about how economic incentives motivates us in strang ways: Freakonomics » Radio

          Planet Money which talkes about finance from the global perspective:

            I go through spurts of listening to Dave Ramsey. I can only take him for so long before I need a break. It is entertaining though.

            Suze Orman is good. The problem with her podcast is that it is a video podcast so you have to keep the screen on which runs down the battery.

            I don't know if Bloomberg has any podcasts but I'm almost positive they have an app.

            Brian, get with the times. Get yourself an iPod or iPhone already.
