Top Podcasts

Recently I started listening to podcasts on the road. Even though my travel to work is just fifteen minutes, I am able to listen to close to half an hour of podcasts. I was listening the podcast at normal speed, then I heard in one of the podcast were the person was listening at twice the speed of the podcast. I tried the double speed but the max that works for me is at 1.7 and not 2 times the podcast speed. Anyway the podcast that I listened to now and which I think to be Top Podcasts are: 1. NPR - Science Friday 2. NPR - This American Life 3. Star Talk - Radio Show 4. TED Talks - Ideas Worth Spreading 5. NPR - TED Radio Hour I hope to to update this list in future and share with you my latest Top Podcasts. Hope you have a happy listening time.
