tfttf and Lenswork are good and I really like Martin Bailey Photography as
well. He's a Brit living in Japan and he specializes in nature photography.
His podcast #7 was especially good, it was titled "Don't give away your
art!" To quote him: "It's incredibly tempting to give your work up for
free, especially when you think of the amount of publicity you'd be passing
up, but if you don't pass it up, you'll be doing nothing more than helping
to knock the bottom out of the very market from which you may one day hope
to making a living."
Food for thought, he makes a good point.
