For those of you missing The Daily Show, you may enjoy some podcasts from John Oliver (perhaps my favorite current correspondent). He and Andy Zaltzman have 10 episodes, about 30 mins each, of really funny news-related comedy at
The Bugle: Audio Newspaper for a Visual World. Some of the topics are British, but most of it is quite accessible to Americans.
I'm hoping to see John Oliver later this month when he comes to SF.
