Some of my favorites (besides a lot of the one's you listed):

The Moth - They use Moth excerpts on This American Life occasionally so you've probably heard of it.

The Slate Magazine Daily Podcast - I like the Cultural, Political and Double X Gabfests, they also do a sports show that I don't listen to.

Real Time with Bill Maher - Just the audio from the show.

Firewall & Iceberg - Alan Sepinwall and Dan Fienberg talk about TV.

The B.S. Report with Bill Simmons - I have no real interest in sports, but he often does shows that are not sports related and is an impressive interviewer.

Wait Wait Don't Tell Me! - I know you said that you are already NPR heavy, but it's so awesome!

NPR's pop culture happy hour is also fantastic!!! Soooo funny and entertaining, it makes me so happy once a week!

Sepinwall has a podcast? Now I feel like I really missed out.

Love The BS Report with Bill Simmons. Definitely a good interviewer and some of his strictly pop culture stuff like the two-part 9/02/10 day podcast was pretty entertaining. Sports talk radio's way to 'guy talk' for my tastes, so Simmons has been a breath of fresh air for me since his column 'Is Roger Clemens The Anti-Christ?'.

Fresh Air is another podcast for me.

Wait Wait Don't Tell Me! was also one of my favorites for a while.
