I've had them for years, and listen to podcasts with them all the time. I can't recommend them highly enough for it. :) I love my Rocketfish RF-MAB2 Bluetooth Stereo Headphones.

To listen to podcasts without wires, you need an <strong>MP3 player</strong>, and a <strong>bluetooth headset </strong>which both support <strong>A2DP</strong>. It sounds like you have been buying a phone headset like you get in mobile phone shops. These tend to support HFP (Hands Free Profile) which is designed for mono voice calls. A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) is designed for transmitting music. A lot of stereo headphones also support AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile) which is a technology which allows control of the player from the headphones. If you are interested in getting the best sound quality, then some headphones support the aptX codec. This is an audio codec which improves the sound quality over the standard Bluetooth codec. Both the headphones and mp3 player need to support aptX to get the improvement, but any two A2DP devices will work together whether they have aptX or not. Hope this helps. Hi Frank,
