1. Cinecast

Yes, Cinecast is high on the list for me also. One thing that I find strange though, they seem to like chick flicks! I mean, they actually reviewed pride and prejudice and *gasp* liked it? I don't care if it has the greatest actors in the world, it's still a chick flick! The same goes for brokeback mountains, a story about two gay cowboys. Chick flick! I think they try a little to hard to please everyone, and they're definitely trying to hard to impress chicks!

2. Diggnation video

Very high for me also, the thanksgiving episode was a riot. At first I thought they spent too much time just talking about nothing but they simply have such good radio/video personalities that you forgive them.

3. DL.TV

Hmm I actually haven't checked out this one. I don't know how it got past me but will subscribe to it (I think I confused it with another similar podcast)

4. Answer Bitch

Never really liked this one...

5. Real Time with Bill Maher

I'll check out this one, seen him on TV, smart and funny guy.

6. Ebert & Roeper

I get a bad vibe from those guys, they seem to think that everything they say is gospel. They don't doubt themselves at all which they should, movie criticism is not science! At least the cinecast guys realize this.

7. KCRW's Left, Right and Center

Sounds a little too political to me to try it out.

8. Slate Podcast

Although I hate the audio intro the Slate podcasts are decent ear candy. Haven't seen an update from them in quite some time though.

9. The Ricky Gervais Show

Very funny, it's kind of a one-trick-pony though with that guy playing the dumb-low-class-brit and the others teasing him (although he does one-up them quite a bit) but definitely enjoyable.

10. This week in Tech

I like this show but I think around 10 is good. Dvorak irritates me a bit playing the pessimistic know-it-all but it's not so bad. It's professional podcasting which I like; Leo is a good host.

(and 11. Tiki Bar TV)

Maybe I should give this another chance...

I'm not going to make a list but here are some good ones that would have been up there for me:

Britpod - british "rude" humour the kind oasis would like

Infected - Britpods american counterpart

Gamer's daily - A must have for any gamer; young hardcore gamers talk about games unfiltered by any host or affiliates. Well edited too!
