I was telling Ron, having given up on radio, and music, I now listen almost exclusively to audio instead.
Audio books I buy from Audible.com for about $12 each.
But Audiocasts (podcasts) are almost all free. I subscribe in iTunes to these:

National Geographic News
Nature PBS
Boing Boing Boing

Pulse of the Planet
The Wildebeat

If any of these look interesting, just search in Google for the “podcast” of that name. You can listen to a sample. Even easier, download iTunes software to your computer and subscribe to the podcasts of your choice there.
Like most people, I tend to listen to ALL of a few favourites. But only a few of most of the above.
If you have other favourites, leave a comment below and I will check them out.
This wouldn’t be your way of letting us know that your eyesight is slowly getting worse, would it be Rick?
