At the moment, my favorite podcast is Gaming Steve, which I've found to be one of the most informative and entertaining gaming shows that I've ever heard.

Beyond this I have a few lifestyle subscriptions (43 Folders and iLife Zone), movie reviews (Mark Kermode's Reviews and UK DVD Review) and few BBC comedy show subscriptions (The Now Show and Fighting Talk). Most recommended, however, is Pete Tong's Tongcast, if you like your dance music. Tiki Bar TV is, of course, a given.

They do some interesting stuff such as have a space for a discussion topic. A week or so ago they did one which was freeform vs tightly scripted gameplay with the pros and cons of each as well as future outlooks. Overall the discussion was pretty cool since you have a dearth of extremely opinionated fellows on that show. The 1UP staff for the podcast is usually pretty great.

Actually now that I think about it the show G4tv.com tried to go for this kind of approach--trouble was the hosts were dumb as they needed to be tv personalities instead of, well you know geeks.
