My Own Black Friday

Today was a perfect day at work. The whole building was shut down, dark, and quiet. I was the only one there because while it was a county holiday, the day after Thanksgiving is not a state holiday. My co-workers took the day off. The phones were quiet as clients assumed no one would be working on the Friday after Thanksgiving. So I was able to get work done while listening to podcasts.

I thought I'd share with you what's currently in my iTunes.

My top three favorites right now are The Savvy Girls, The Knitmore Girls and A Playful Day.

The others I enjoy are Stash and Burn, Sticks and String, and Belle of the Ball.

Non-knitting podcasts are The Stephanie Miller Show, A Prairie Home Companion, Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me, This American Life, The Moth, Stuff You Should Know*, and WTF with Marc Maron.

I treat blogs and podcasts like I do books - no reading the end first. I have to start at the beginning otherwise I feel like I'm missing a large part of the narrative. I just cannot listen to episodes out of numerical order. So for podcasts that have been airing for years, I'm just catching up.

What podcasts would you recommend I add to my list?

*I just typed Knit instead of Know. I can take a hint. Off to knit...
