The folks over at TechCrunch have started a pretty good podcast called TalkCrunch. I've grown tired of listening to podcasts that front themselves as being the replacement for FM radio but don't deliver. TalkCrunch is professionally done and, based on the first four episodes I've listened to, covers technology trends I'm interested in.

For me this podcast will replace TWIT because the personalities on that podcast seem like a bunch of conceded windbags. Except maybe for Doug Kaye who I think has done an incredible thing with the IT Conversations network.

Other podcasts that have fallen off my listening rotation:

• Swampcast


• ZDot


• Adam Curry's: The Daily Source Code

An Honorable Mention for a podcast I've found to be very funny latley and loosely based on Java is the DrunkAndRetired.com Podcast. Just listen to the intro song on the first episode this podcast released and you will know why I like it. These guys can talk about technology intelligently and can be very funny.
