re: Need Audiobook Suggestions

BBC - Desert Island Discs -- A celebrity is interviewed and plays their favorite records. A lot more interesting and entertaining than it sounds. On the air since 1942 -- it's the second oldest radio series in the world (after the Grand Ole Opry). 500+ episodes online -- I've listened to about 40-50, including Paul McCartney, Randy Newman, Mel Brooks, and even Field Marshall Montgomery (from 1969).

In Our Time -- BBC History roundtable discussion

BBC Podcasts

The long-locked but (old times there are) not forgotten Old Time Radio thread -- Sort of like very short audio books
