What podcasts should I listen to that are not, like, itunes exclusive or whatever?

Right now I'm subscribing to the bugle and star talks. I don't really know what's out there when it comes to podcasts and since I don't have tv I'm looking for all categories of stuff from news to, i don't know, audio dramas if thats even a thing you do on podcasts?

Let's see...my podcast line-up:
The Cracked Podcast (from Cracked.com)
Magic the Gathering Drive to Work Podcast (by Head MtG Designer Mark Rosewater)
Star Talk Radio Show (Neil DeGrasse Tyson)
This American Life (NPR)
Radio Lab (also NPR)
Welcome to Night Vale (H.P. Lovecraft-esque small-town radio drama)
Dungeon & Dragons Podcast (from WotC, though hardy updates)
The Kiss Me Quick's Erotica Podcast (because my fiance needs her smut when we go on long car rides? And I like it when she's all hot and bothered?)

I suggest Welcome to Night Vale. It's about 45-50 episodes deep now, but they're all pretty great. This American Life is usually great as well, but can be a miss sometimes if the topic of the week doesn't do anything for you. I just love Ira Glass's story telling and pacing. If you ever played or were interested in Magic, MaRo's Drive to Work podcast is excellent. He's very high energy, clearly loves his work, and has tons of interesting behind the scenes stories to tell. He dumps about two episodes a week and I hear he's got about a ten to twelve episode buffer in case he gets really busy.

For just random stuff... I do enjoy listening to the Rooster Teeth podcast... and there is also the aforementioned Star Talk, because Mr. Tyson does have some rather interesting tales to tell.

I will second Cracked Podcast, depending on the subject.

I also listen to How Did This Get Made (http://www.earwolf.com/show/how-did-this-get-made/), Fatman on Batman (http://smodcast.com/channels/fatman-on-batman/) and Hollywood Babylon (http://smodcast.com/channels/hollywood-babble-on/), and Hardcore History (http://www.dancarlin.com/disp.php/hharchive). Hardcore History is a bit more like listening to an audiobook history lesson, though, due to the length.

Actually those all also come with the footnote that it depends on the subject.

I will listen to other random ones like Radiolab and such, too.

EDIT: I forgot the Insert Credit (http://insertcredit.com/category/podcast/) podcast.
