New podcasts in November 2009 - Anne is a Man

In spite of being struck by blog block, I have managed to review 16 new podcasts this month. I still owe you many more, among others a hand full of podcasts that teach Hebrew. That will come in December.

Apart from podcasts for learning German there was a relatively large amount of religion related podcasts. Secular as my own outlook on life is, also these podcasts usually take a cultural, modern or historic, angle.
