To keep improving my WordPress skills when I'm away from my computer, I listen to podcasts. It's difficult to teach the technical aspects of web design through audio, so many of these cover WordPress news and opinion, but a few have WordPress tips and tricks as well.
These are the best WordPress podcasts I've found so far, along with descriptions provided by the producers, ranked from my favorite to least favorite. I'm always looking for more, so please leave your favorite in the comments!
