I've been listening to NPR int the car recently. On the radio, but also on podcasts. My car allows me to listen to them via a USB stick, so a lot of the stories and programs that I miss because of my drive time are available via podcast, so I downloaded the most recent one (as an MP3 file) and took them with me.
I didn't know exactly which series would interest me so I just grabbed a bunch that seemed like they might be interesting - mostly science and technology. I heard about a couple of things that were really cool -- a vision test done with any smart phone (to go along with the really inexpensive glasses aimed at developing countries) and a digital stethoscope smart phone app that performs even better than their much pricier options.
I really like being able to listen to what I want to listen to when I want to listen. I've subscribed to the ones I like via iTunes at home, but we'll see how often I listen there. Time will tell.
