This American Life/Radiolab-alikes?

I like TAL and Radiolab a lot, anything else out there similar? 99% Invisible is one, but the episodes are very short. Any recommendations?

Whenever TAL does anything related to the economy, e.g. their episode on Toxic Assets, it's in collaboration with the people behind the NPR Planet Money podcast. The style is similar, and I give that podcast a lot of credit for helping me figure out just what the heck was going on in world economies over the last few years.

Ye Hypocrites, are these your pranks
To murder men and gie God thanks?
Desist for shame, proceed no further
God won't accept your thanks for murder.

Freakanomics is worth listening to also.

The episode length varies a lot but it's always interesting
