Just thought I would introduce you to The Bugle - Audio newspaper for a visual world
It's a podcast with two English blokes, one in America and one in England being witty about the week’s news, one's John Oliver (from the daily show) the other is Andy Zaltzman (another comedian)

It’s associated with The Times, one of Rupert Murdoch’s but don't worry they're not censored and regularly take the piss out of fox "news" etc.

It can sometimes drop in quality but that's because it's on every week. Although I think it might be off for a week next week usually they stick in some stuff that they didn't fit in old ones then which aren't as good.
The latest one about Oil running out is pretty good.
