Are there any interesting podcast that you've been listening to that you would recommend? I am always looking for new podcasts to listen to on my commute and would love to hear some recommendations from you all:

Here is a list of some of my favorite, recommended podcasts:

Criminal - Criminal is a podcast about crime. Not so much the "if it bleeds, it leads," kind of crime.
TED Talks Daily - Want TED Talks on the go? Every weekday, this feed brings you out latest talks in audio format.
Ellen on the Go - Ellen on the go is the place to hear what they're talking about on the Ellen Degeners Show!
Stuff You Missed in History Class - Join Holly and Tracy as they bring you the greatest and stangest Stuff You Missed In History Class in this podcast by HowStuffWorks.
Questlove Supreme - Join Questlove as he hosts a weekly radio show that digs deep into the stories behind the names you know, and the names you might not.

Looking forward to hearing what you enjoy. Casefile and Sword & Scale are two other True Crime podcasts I really like. Sword & Scale has recently had some controversy surrounding the host, but the content is usually decent. Casefile is great.

@ErickPandora Just discovered a new true crime podcast on Pandora, The Apology Line. Seems interesting! 🎧

Here's the description:

"If you could call a number and say you’re sorry, and no one would know…what would you apologize for? For fifteen years, you could call a number in Manhattan and do just that. This is the story of the line, and the man at the other end who became consumed by his own creation. He was known as “Mr. Apology.” As thousands of callers flooded the line, confessing to everything from shoplifting to infidelity, drug dealing to murder, Mr. Apology realized he couldn’t just listen. He had to do something, even if it meant risking everything. From Wondery the makers of Dr. Death and The Shrink Next Door, comes a story about empathy, deception and obsession. Marissa Bridge, who knew Mr. Apology better than anyone, hosts this six episode series."
