Oh yeah, I listen to podcasts or if I am on the elliptical I treat myself to a show I already have or sometimes I buy one on itunes.
Latest purchase:

I think the dark thoughts of my bitter, cynical heart. And also gaze adoringly at my dog or work on training him.

Lately, I've been doing P90X for exercise, so I'm busy playing the videos to workout to.
I used to listen to music while I would run or walk the dog. But then I had to have surgery on my ear and my hearing is bad enough that listening to music while walking/running outside could result in me not hearing approaching traffic or wild critters, so I stopped doing that for safety reasons. I would still listen to music while running on a treadmill, but I stopped running on treadmills because my joints don't like the impact over extended periods of time anymore. But in those cases, I preferred music to watching movies/reading books/listening to podcasts, because the rhythm of the music helped me keep my running pace and keep my breathing even. I even had a playlist I would use specifically for running, and a running app that could be programmed to play a certain song/playlist at certain points in your run so you could finish strong to the Rocky theme song, if you really wanted to.

During my exercise time, I like to lay in bed and read these forums.

Since I can eat lunch at my desk at work, I tend to take walks during my lunchtime. Since there's some nice walking paths in the area, I can put on my music and just cruise along.
