On the British Council website Learn English there is a section called Listen & 
Watch
 <http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/en/listen-and-watch> 
http://learnenglish.britishcouncil.org/en/listen-and-watch
which has a lot of audio recordings and podcasts on different topics.
 
In the Magazine you will find recorded programmes on a wide range of topics: 
environment, science, sports, magic etc. 
These come with transcripts and are suitable for post-intermediate students.
 
There is also also a series of Elementary podcasts and these are accompanied by 
transcripts and support packs which can be dowloaded and used in class.
 
BBC World Service also has a section called Words in the News with short news 
reports, accompanied by transcripts and key words explained.
