I've enjoyed the <a href="http://www.wnyc.org/shows/bl/" rel="nofollow">Brian Lehrer show</a>, from WNYC, which is a good late-morning talk show that focuses mostly on national/world issues and politics but also has a small dose of NYC-oriented news. There are some call-in times, but also really interesting guests and even-handed discussions about meaty topics. Full disclosure: a friend of mine works at the show. Also, I'd be remiss not to mention the <a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=15681603&ps=sa" rel="nofollow">NPR Concert Series</a> which in general I haven't found all that good with the exception of the stunning Tom Waits concert which was on a few months back and which I really haven't stopped listening to.
