I've only recently discovered the wonders of podcasts, but I already have quite a few I subscribe to.
I found a cool amateur production company that makes original and fan-fiction radio shows: Pendant Productions. The one I listen to faithfully (because it's my favourite) is called The Dixie Stenberg And Brassy Battalion Adventure Theater, a loving send-up of Old Time Radio shows set during World War II. They also have a slew of DC Comics shows, which I haven't started listening to yet. They're pretty good for young, inspired people who are doing it all on their free time.
Speaking of Old Time Radio, I discovered old episodes of The Shadow! I make them my weekend treat, at bedtime with the lights out. I also have the CBC Radio podcast of Stuart McLean's The Vinyl Cafe. And President Obama's weekly address, just because I can.

Linda Smith was one of the funniest female comedians the country had produced. The News Quiz and Just A Minute aren't the same without her (although in the latter Liza Tarbuck and Pauline McLynn do a fine job).
