Aside from the ones already mentioned, I like:
The Sound of Young America-- particularly good if you are interested in comedy or hip hip
Jordan Jesse GO! -- a talk show from the people behind TSOYA above
The Hollywood Saloon-- for the most ridiculous kind of nerdliness about film, like two-hour paeans to Shane Black and equally lengthy disquisitions on the 30 different versions of Star Wars.
Filmspotting, actually far less trainspotting-y about movies

I really wish that CNN offered Anderson Cooper 360 and MSNB offered the full Countdown with Keith Olbermann instead of the highlights show the put up, but I guess you can't have everything. I also listen to Slate Explainer, the NYT Ethicist, The Onion Radio News, and the NBC Nightly News vodcast, as well as one or two other things I can't remember because they aren't on the ipod right now.
I dropped that Alan Watts one pretty fast. I like and respect the guy, but his delivery was of the snooze.

Dear lord how do you guys possibly listen to all that? I mean, I'd like to, but - no.
I just went and looked up the PRI show Afropop Worldwide (which I love but haven't heard in 5 years - and it does podcast!) and discovered that the host's name is Georges Collinet. I had been envisioning "Josh Geline" (he has a strong accent.)

I listen to them mostly on my walk to work and anytime I'm travelling on buses. Some definitely get listened to more than others. The daily ones I cull fairly regualrly.
I generally listen to a few going to and from work and catch up on longer ones over the weekend if there's time. Some I just delete if they've gone overripe.
I should say that I hear about a lot of bands I end up liking from the two KEXP podcasts. KEXP also went above and beyond for SXSW, adding 10 30-min. live performances in 3 days, including the Stooges, Okkervil River, Beirut, and the Apples in Stereo.
Excellent! I've been looking to add stuff to listen to on my walks. For the moment, I only subscribe to:
