Comment: Also well worth listening to is foreign language radio stations. I speak decent Spanish so I often have the equivalent of the Spanish World Service (well, kind of equivalent) playing on my computer in the background while I work in the same way I might have music on. I don't listen hard to it, but I find that I do pick up on interesting things when they come up.
