I've never listened to a podcast before this assignment, but I would say that if I had an IPhone or a portable device with WiFi I would forgo listening to the radio and only listen to podcasts. There is such an amazing selection of podcasts. The genre's range from cooking to literature to music to travel and even more. There is literally a podcast for everyone!
To find the podcast I searched through the website podcastdirectory.com. I searched for "young adult fiction" and found the YA Literature Review. It's a podcast that discusses Young Adult Fiction. The cast interviews authors, reviews, comments, and discusses works like Rick Riordan's The Lightening Thief and Holly Black's Faerie Trilogy. This is a great podcast because it talks about books that young adults are actually interested in reading and gives them suggestions on similar authors to read.
This podcast would definitely keep avid YA Fiction readers ,and YA reference librarians, up to date on what is current in the literary world.
Here is the link to the YA Literature Review podcast.
