When I was learning Turkish, I spent a summer listening to an hour-long talk radio show every morning. Three guys chatting about local issues and making jokes, with callers phoning in to offer their opinions. It bumped my comprehension to effectively fluent, and I learned a lot of colloquialisms that make me sound more fluent than I actually feel when I speak.

Can you tell me the talk show you are referring to and if it's accessible in the US? I'm trying to learn Turkish, and compared to when I was trying to learn Spanish, it feels like there are very little accessible resources.

Sure thing. It is "Modern Sabahlar". Here's a link to the podcast archive. They are very good about keeping it current. You can also follow them on Twitter for updates.
