So I've had my iPhone for a while but just realized I could download podcasts and audiobooks :embarassed:

I like to listen to music while I walk but I think I'd like to hear books or podcasts.....do you like to listen to them? What types do you listen to? What's your fav?

    I love audio books. I'm listening to "Atlas Shrugged" right now, and recently I purchased some new headphones, as my earbuds were driving me crazy while running. I'm using my Droid2, so I am able use bluetooth headphones; I'm loving no cords!!
  • I listen to both!

    Audiobooks such as Tom Clancy's Op-Center (Fiction), Janet Evanovich Plum Series, James Peterson.

    Podcasts such as Onion Radio News (Comedy), Major Nelson Radio (Video Game Type)

    I listen to a lot of NPR podcasts (which all are free, BTW):

    -Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!
    A very funny news quiz show. Updates weekly.

    -Radiolab
    Wide variety of topics, but often somewhat sciencey. Updates every 2 weeks or so.

    -This American Life
    Wide range of topics. A theme is chosen each week and then explored from 2-3 different stories. Updates weekly.

    -Fresh Air
    Basically a talk show. Wide variety of guests talking with host Terry Gross. Updates every weekday.

    -The Moth
    Collection of people telling their own stories.

    I've been listening to the "Girl with the dragon tattoo" trilogy. On the last one! I use audible.com to get a credit a month. Otherwise itunes has a TON of free podcasts.
