As a space studies graduate student, it is enjoyable and advantageous to be up-to-date on different items that NASA is working on. I try to find many different ways to learn about space so that I can work learning into my life more easily. I listen to these podcasts on my way to work and when I travel for my job. I will sometimes listen to them a second time so that I can watch them too.
