I love this podcast about new comedians. One of the best podcasts out there. The only complaint: the music breaks. Not the quality of the music; just that they're there at all. I'm listening to the podcast for comedy and, after only about 5 minutes of interview/performance, two to three songs are played before we get back to the comedian.
