I've been listening to the Editing Podcast for a while, and just started following it on Audible. It's a great resource for editors and writers. Louise and Denise are a lot of fun to listen to. Even the episodes that aren't directly relevant to me are still interesting and informative.

Excellent resource & a fun listen
