The Reason for the Season

17 days to go until we decide this thing.*

I am a tad bit obsessed with checking the news and listening to the talking heads.

Here are a few podcasts I am listening to on a daily basis:
The Diane Rehm Show
The Rachel Maddow Show
Talk of the Nation
The News Hour with Jim Lehrer

And a few weekly podcasts:
Slate Gabfest
Washington Week
Left, Right and Center
Real Time with Bill Mahr

All of these can be found through iTunes.

And checking on an, uhm, hourly basis
The Daily Beast
Huffington Post
Slate

I don't have time to read most of it but I feel comforted just reading the headlines. I need a job where I get paid to read all day. Any ideas?
