Default Podcasts for Learning on the train?

I'm doing a few overnight trains through Europe and I'm looking for a good free or cheap podcast/language program for my Ipod touch to pick up some essential words/phrases between countries. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm going to be travelling between the Czech, Germany, and France. I've found quite a few podcasts, but I was hoping there was something more focused on short-term travel in those countries.

For French try Frenchpod.com. They are part of the Praxis group and do a first rate job with the lessons.

I think there is a Germanpod101.com but think it wasn't as polished as the Praxis ones.
