This is a collection of the things I regularly listen to for listening comprehension practice.
Please feel free to add anything you listen to! I'll try to edit this post with additions to keep it all easy to find.
In theory.. all these iTunes link work, yell if they don't!
 
①「ヒデオチャンネルラジオ」 - Radio show done by Kojima Hideo (creator of the Metal Gear Solid video game series). Sometimes silly (especially the episodes in which they talk about English phrases from MGS games).
Blog Linkwww.kjp.konami.jp/gs/hideoblog/ (All the episodes show up here, along with stuff to read.)
iTunes link: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=192728308
 
②TBS Radio http://www.tbs.co.jp/radio/ (there's a lot of podcasts here, I'll link one I listen to).
「土曜朝イチエンタ。堀尾正明+PLUS!」
iTunes link: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=293782096
 
③「ビールの話」 www.voiceblog.jp/beer/ (how can you go wrong with a title like that?)
iTunes link: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=114193175
 
④「副島新語」 - Soezimax - A guy working in theatre and some TV who makes many video blogs and puts them on Youtube. There's a ton of videos already up and he adds new ones every now and then. He's a little crazy sometimes, but that's fun right? It's also nice to have video so your eyes can participate as well.

Japanese listening list

Great list, drdunap! Thanks for compiling it!

I'll add a couple of favorites, though these are of a different stripe. Last semester when I taught a third-year class, we did a project using Japanese TV commercials, especially ones that had some good conversational elements to it. Here are some of my favorites:

Gotta' run now, but I'll add more as I think of them/get some more time... (^^;
