Podcasting to teach java.
I did a search a couple of minutes ago on Podcast.net. I was looking for Java podcasts to subscribe to. I typed in 'java' and was surprised to see that a professor at Harvard Extension School had his computer science podcasts up online. The content he provides is an XML and J2EE course for the spring 2006 semester.
The course, which you can listen to now, covers XML, DTD, Schemas, SVG, and what looks like every other conceivable X*. Click here to review the podcasts for yourselves.
I found the idea of educational podcasts pretty interesting and quite groundbreaking. Educational podcasts may possibly evolve into the new university curriculum standard, reducing the university campus to an amusement park where students go only to find parties and sex.

This is very cool - thanks for pointing it out. This might not be quite as meaty or detailed as what you are looking for, but check out the RedMonkRadio podcasts and Drunk and Retired - I like both of those. Cote' and I are also starting a feed of dev-related podcasts that we find interesting - try subscribing to http://feeds.feedburner.com/podcasts4u
