   Hi, would you consider listing my course, The Sociology of Race Relations, from UMASS Amherst on your site list? It is available through Itunes:

   Thanks for the list. It’s very handy. But one of the difficulties of academic podcasts is that it’s hard to know the relevance of a podcast simply by its title. I was listening to the JHU podcast on Proust & Philosophy and it turned out to be not about philosophy but Marxist literary criticism. Anyway, thanks for the work of pulling together this list.

   Love the list. We are using many courses found here on Free A&M University now.

   Most of the MIT stuff is missing core content and should not be listed as courseware. They do have 9 or 10 MIT courses with content but the remaining 1,800 are bull shit. Do not waste your time.

    Here’s another Physics one from UC Berkeley: Physics for Future Presidents, taught by Richard Muller. It covers important present-day issues in physics (like the “hydrogen economy” or nuclear power) for those with little or no physics/mathematical background.
