Two CBC podcasts: IDEAS, which is an hour, but has a station break at the 30 minute mark.:http://www.cbc.ca/ideas/podcasts/
Under the Influence, about advertising and marketing, which I think is 30 minutes: [link]
I also loved the BBC's History of the Word in 100 Objects. [link]
Cilantro, no. Oxford comma, yes. I wouldn't know a muffaletta if it bit me back, but I like olives. Muffins are merely an excuse to eat cake for breakfast. Raisins belong in trail mix, not cookies.
Podcasts drive me nuts, listening to other people yak inanely, and hum and uh, and the clatter in the background, and most of it I can't hear clearly anyway, so it's frustrating.
Despite my introversion, I loved my office's open floor plan, and I was soul-crushed when they did away with it and put us all in 6x6 cubicles like veal.

If I hated them, that would have been a whole different story.

Yeah, you could say that.
On the nose, but perfect, but too much so. I want to know ita's opinion on the matter, dammit.
Callaluna, I'm in Hawaii on a 5-month contract, with an option to extend for an additional year. You don't realize how much of a series of rocks in the middle of the ocean it is until it becomes relevant to your life.
~ma to your neighbors, Anne, and to you.

JZ summed up my feelings perfectly. (I want to know if the staff wears leather pants. I'm sure they don't.)
