Been getting into podcasts, a good substitute for my driving commute where I can't read or hack. It feels like there's a spectrum of "2 or 3 smart people shooting the breeze about a topic" to "polished, edited programs, like (or by) NPR". I find I strongly prefer the former.

Podcasts fans, is there one side of that you prefer?

Also, do you listen at normal speed or sped up?

But come to think of it, maybe I should try audiobooks as well, now that I know I have proof of concepted with podcasts.
David Sedaris mentioned someone wearing a lavalava. I was sort of amused by the start of the wikipedia entry:
"A lavalava, also known as an 'ie, short for 'ie lavalava"
Hmm.
