Don't know podcasts, but I have a bunch of favorites from youtube, like this one. I played this a million times during second year. Arnold is the man.

The School of Greatness by Lewis Howes helps keep me going when I'm down in a slump
 
Not motivating, but an interesting murder mystery investigation type of podcast S-Town just came out yesterday actually.

My PI just recommended this to me 5 minutes ago. Sounds intriguing

And if you end up liking it, check out Serial....similar in style both made by same overarching public radio station - This American Life.

I finished Serial 1 and it was excellent, I am currently on Serial 2 and plan on picking up s-town afterwards. Excellent quality as to be expected from TAL spinoffs.

How I Built This!

From their website:

How I Built This is a podcast that captures this spirit. It's about innovators, entrepreneurs, and idealists, and the stories behind the movements they built. Each episode is a narrative journey marked by triumphs, failures, serendipity and insight — told by the founders of some of the world's best known companies and brands.
 
For those who enjoy story-like podcasts, I'd definitely recommend "Alice isn't Dead" by the same people who make Welcome to Night Vale. Also their Within in the Wires picks up if you get past the first couple of episodes since the first are kinda boring...

Also Freakonomics is definitely a classic!
 
Just a heads up - I just binged listened S-Town yesterday, while pipetting mindlessly for 6 hours. It was okay. I am a HUGE TAL and Serial fan (especially season 1), but S-Town's story and mystery just aren't as compelling.

+1 for Freakonomics Radio and Alice Isn't Dead. Embedded is also great. Missing Richard Simmons is super interesting and funny. For more fiction podcasts, some of my favorites are Limetown, The Message, The Black Tapes, and The Truth. Radiolab is a must listen.

Arnold is a pig. Maria Shriver is beyond class snd elegance. She is it! Wonder Woman.
Arnold was no man at all in what he did to Maria, the child he had with their maid, he showed himself to be a total eunuch given his abuse of anabolics...and it showed in his lack of character.
Maria Shriver is amazing role model. Arnold a total fake. z

Same but I didn't use one video. I'd rotate through a bunch that all kind of looked like this:
