I've been enjoying a recent addition to the BFF.fm roster quite a bit: Rude Awakening with Josh PM. Dedicated to ska, the show not only helps give me the energy I need to face another Friday morning, but it also revives such strong memories of my senior year in high school and freshmen year in college.
