[marathondan]

I quite like Marathontalk; it's served me well over the years, although I've avoided it this season. They know their stuff and there's normally a good long-form interview. However, it is very matey; to be fair to the presenters they have successfully built an online community around the podcast, but that does mean that airtime needs to be devoted to discussing listeners' holiday snaps of (great radio) and the presenters trash-talking each other. In summary, it's decent company on a long run, but I'm not sure I could stomach it in the car. (Actually, why not just listen to the interviews in the car? There's a back catalogue of several hundred to choose from.)
