From WBEZ in Chicago | This American Life

If you've never listened to This American Life or haven't in a while, you should visit and spend some time with RealAudio here. It's really a great radio show.

I found Episode 298 which is basically all about consumption particularly enjoyable. The prologue is quite funny, the first act is depressing but really interesting, and act two has that sort of "oh yeah" moment when someone articulates a phenomenon that most of us have undergone. Listening requires a fair amount of focus, but one can fold laundry or knit and still follow.
