    Pat Flynn's Smart Passive Income podcast is PURE GOLD. The best one I've found so far when it comes to marketing, and specifically online marketing.

    I'd second Pat Flynn's podcast and Sterling & Jay's Internet Business Mastery Podcast is worth a listen as well.

      Hey JP - All...
      I just wrote an article on my site with links to my favorite podcasts.
      Here's the Meat of it;

      Here's my current favorites:
      The Survival Podcast
      This is my current favorite guy podcasting right now. Jack Spirko of The Survival Podcast is a daily podcaster and blogger in the prepping, survival niche...but so much more - great libertarian viewpoints and community.

      Liberty movement, politics, economy, investing, gardening, firearms.

      I'm considering becoming a Jack Spirko groupie, seriously good stuff though - Check it out!

      Smart Passive Income

      Pat Flynn's SPI podcast is excellent and helpful online marketing info and interviews. Great down to earth strategies of what's working now in building an online presence and making money.

      CopyBlogger
      CopyBlogger internet marketing site, does not currently put out content for free via this channel but some great interviews with high performance marketers and copywriters available from older episodes.

      Lifestyle Business Podcast
      The LBP is a couple of serial entrepreneurs that followed Tim Ferris' "4 Hour Workweek" model.

      They know travel the world as 'lifestyle entrepreneurs'. Cool stuff and great insights from smart, savvy guys jetting around Asia, Europe, and the US.

      Social Triggers Insider
      Darek Halpern of Social Triggers blog puts out a podcast with some great interviews on psychology of selling, marketing, and customer interaction.

      Radical Change Group
      Neuro-linguistic programming experts share insights and training on using NLP and super learning.

      These guys have some strange accents, I think Indian or something...makes them kind of funny-nerdy to listen to but great solid NLP info.

      Ok, now for the guilty pleasures...But ONLY after your work is done, or your driving or something. Twinkies for your brain :p

      Underwood and Flinch
      A vampire novel by Mike Bennett

      I came across this story and hid away for a couple days listening to it, if you like a good vampire story...this is a Great vampire story!

      The author Mike Bennett, reads his vampire novel and unlike a lot of authors - he is great in character!

      We're Alive A Zombie Story of Survival
      What a great zombie fix in a podcast (disappeared for another couple of days - could not stop listening!)!

      A Hollywood level production of a well put together zombie apocalypse story and cast.

      I hope I've turned you onto some new, good stuff...sure to train and entertain

        Also like Tropical MBA, Entrepreneur On Fire, and Adsense Flippers

        Also couple from James Schramko that I listen to but not sure of the names of them from this computer, something like "Speed Internet Marketing" or the like.

        Creating my own too, which will interview everyday entrepreneurs who are still on their journey rather than just the "gurus".

          Thanks for the AdSense Flippers Podcast mention! :-)

          I listen to some of the others mentioned...specifically our friends at the Lifestyle Business Podcast, Smart Passive Income, and the podcast godfathers at Internet Business Mastery.

          I'll add a few that haven't been mentioned yet:

          Mixergy - Andrew Warner has both high-profile entrepreneurs and those that have just started off and are having some early success. He does a GREAT job both pre-interviewing and having the episodes follow an interesting story arch. Highly recommended.

          Foolish Adventure - Tim Conley puts on an entertaining and info-packed show. Tim's great at throwing people off their talking points and digging in. I don't listen to every episode, but feel free to pick and choose those that you think can help you best.

            lol, no worries, and surprising that you guys are on the warrior forum
            I just got back from my walk where I listened to your episode #28 (Business Idea Faceoff) which was a great show - blogged about it in my private group tonight.

I have definitely loved his interview's (on other people's podcasts) so far. Really can relate to him and love where he is coming from, so it would be good to check this one out.

          After I saw this post about Adsense Flippers, I went and downloaded the first one, and then the second, and then the third, and so on!

          Such rich content! I love their no-bones approach to making money online.

            Thanks, Andrew...really appreciate it!

            For anyone interested in starting a podcast, I'd seriously recommend taking a look at the success of Entrepreneur On Fire. Here's a GREAT interview with him and Andrew from Mixergy talking about how he attracted so much attention in such a short period of time. (Less than 6 months and getting 100K+ downloads per month, I believe) He's had guys like Seth Godin and Gary V. on the program...wowza.

    Being a Montrealer I obviously have to prop up Mitch Joel and the Six Pixels of Separation Podcast. He's often got great guests who don't mince words and the array of topics is wide reaching with a focus on online marketing. Tx @Freedom Media re: We're Alive podcast. Checking that out as I write this!

    I agree with all of the suggestions given already.

    I thoroughly enjoy Marketing Over Coffee and Duct Tape Marketing.

    I found some great ones in this list also:

    Small Business Podcast Top 100 List: 2013 Edition

    Meet Innovators is a great podcast hosted by Adrian Bye. I encourage anyone to eat up the archives on this. He stopped doing them for a good chunk of time while he was traveling, but I've heard he may have some fresh stuff out there, haven't checked in a while.

    I must mention one that's already been mentioned. The Foolish Adventure Show by Tim Conley is probably top 3 for me. He is really great at steering the conversation within his interviews to get the gold out of the interviewee. He has seen lots of success so he can speak from experience and not just assumptions.

    Dave Ramsey's team has the EntreLeadership podcast, which is always loaded with great content for the entrepreneur as well.

    Entrepreneur on Fire by John Lee Dumas is another one you might check out. Since he posts a new interview everyday, there are a lot of podcasts. Quantity? Definitely. Quality? It varies. Just the opposite of the Foolish Adventure, he asks every interviewee the same questions. At first, this seemed like a great idea that I thought I would love, but after a handful of episodes I realized I got more out of Tim's approach of conversation and not so much just a Q&A. Not saying it's bad, just a matter of preference!

    Hope this helps!

    For me it would be "Think and Grow Rich" podcasts. They really inspire you to
    achieve great results and fulfill your dreams.

    Thanks for all the great suggestions so far. I've found a few new gems that I never would have stumbled across naturally!

    I would like to add the Landing Page Optimization podcast of ones worth a listen.
