@Mario – I hope you like the suggestions. I’m definitely going to check these out. I don’t have much listening for this week, so I’ll be playing catch up for these new feeds. Thanks for the suggestions!

@Max – I would never wish that drive on anyone, but if you ever want to trade commutes, just let me know . I like the Flex Show, it’s a good community news and conversation podcast.

@Randal – Thanks for stopping by. Although I’d like to see more shows from FLOSS Weekly, I really enjoy the ones you’ve done thus far. I’d really like to see something from the Ubuntu crowd as well as the Mono guys trying to make .NET legit in the cross-platform space. Keep up the great work.

@Joe – Thanks for suggestions, RadioLab looks pretty cool. I’ll definitely check both out.

@Jeff – Thanks for stopping by. I really like the Flex Show, especially now that the opening music is different (seriously, thank you for that and sorry if saying this offends anyone). You guys are doing great with the interviews, but it would be nice to see more organization in them (episode 34 was a little chaotic). Could you guys give out some information on good places to find best practices in Flex (devoid of framework stuff? If so that’d be awesome. Flex has a lot of powerful features and it feels like few people are familiar with them since they just dive into something like Cairngorm. In any case, keep up the great work and thanks for all the help you’re giving to the community.

I really appreciate you listening to The Flex Show (And telling your friends).

I’ve listened to a lot of podcasts during a morning walk; have found some great stuff out there, but it is hard to sift through the noise.

Max, thanks for subscribing; I hope we deliver what you need. And if not, don’t be shy in telling us what we can do better or different. Even after doing the podcast for over a year, I still feel like I’m still learning.

A lot of great stuff there. I really like This American Life and Radiolab as lab.

Sometimes I wish I had to drive as far as you do to work and back so I could listen to podcasts more religiously. Unfortunately, I am limited to about fifteen minutes in each direction, so I have to keep the list short.

SE Radio kicks ass. I used this post as my reminder to subscribe to The Flex Show on my media Mac (thanks!).
