Have you ever had a chance to listen to This American Life on NPR?
This is by FAR my favorite thing to listen to on the internet or on the radio. It's not spiritual per se, but it is absolutely and beautifully rich with emotion and human spirit. Each episode focuses on a different theme and they usually tell 2 or 3 stories focusing on that theme. Sometimes it's deep investigative journalism, sometimes it's simply telling stories of everyday people. This program never ceases to move me at my very core. I get to listen to it every week on a weekly long drive I have and almost every single week I am wiping tears from my eyes, whether from sadness or from joy. There's just something about how these stories are presented that really tugs at the heart strings.
The archive contains a whopping 475 episodes going all the way back to 1995.
I've probably caught about 50-60. My favorite so far is Amusement Park. I literally had to pull off to the side of the road to collect myself after listening to Act 1. It affected me very deeply.
Seriously one of my favorite things ever.
If you're looking for something more spiritual, the Sons of the Law of One podcast has some decent gems.
