No not a new Final Fantasy title, or even FF question...
For both of you guys, but more for Joe since he listens to a ton of podcasts:
Have you ever reached a point where your podcast queue is empty? If so, what do you do? Relisten? Audiobooks?
I have been doing the podcast thing for 8 years now. I usually have more than enough to listen, too. I find a new podcast and then binge listen until I am caught up. Once that is done, I have to go catch up on all the podcasts I have been ignoring during the binge-listening. But I have reached a point where I am not adding new 'casts. About two months ago, my podcast count was in the single digits. Then one day, there was no number. There were no episodes.
I only subscribe to 14 podcasts now, and it is rare to see my queue go above 10 and difficult to get it to go above 20. I usually listen to The Great Courses on Audible when there are not podcasts in the queue. It is what I used to listen to before I discovered the joy of podcasts.
So have any of you finished your queue? What did you do?

30+ but i listen to them while i work and i work anywhere from 70-90 hours a week so always hunting for news ones. If i run out there are 2 specific pod casts i re-listen to.
Competitive Erotic Fan Fiction(re-playability is epic probably the funnest thing i listen to)
Psuedopod (EPIC horror stories by some of the best short story writers i have ever listened to, stories are so good i tend to listen multiple times to get all out of it i can)
Also audiobooks are always fun for awhile there was listening to the complete discography of Stephen King, still got like 20 book to listen to i think i got through 40-50.

I typically hit zero once Friday comes around, because I work extra hours on Friday and that typically eats up whatever podcasts I have left at the end of the week. If I don't have enough podcasts to fill the time, I relisten to podcasts, or go far back into the archive to listen to one I've never heard before.

I listen to about 10 different podcasts. I will normally go through my que in about 3 days. My job has so much down time right now that I pass time listening to podcasts and taking notes. My que only tops out at about 15 and only one podcast I listen to is a bi-daily podcast so I can never fully catch up. When I do get tired of trying to play catch up I will read a book. Audio books irritate me because I like to have my on imagination be used when filling in the roles of the characters and their story. I have however found 1 audio book that is only a audiobook and not something to read, that has a good narrarator. "Legion" - story about a finder of things that has multiple personalities to fill in all the information he does not know. For ex. He reads a book about the language of Islam then invents a persona in his head that portrays that knowledge in bodily form which turns out to be a Islamic woman. And yes he does talk to himself a lot.
