Good shadowing resources?

#1
I'm wanting to give this shadowing thing a try, but where do you guys get all the audio? I mean, I could use smart.fm audio but I already use that all the time in my daily reviews. Also it be nicer to have something a bit longer. I guess what I'm looking for is, something that's interesting, has audio and a transcript... Is there, maybe, an easy way to use subs2srs to do this?

I've heard this book is good. I actually own it, but haven't started shadowing with it yet. Flipping through the first pages, it seems to be pretty good, for what that's worth.

I think the biggest complaint I've seen against that book is that the female speaker has a bit of an 'anime voice', but other than that it seems like a good start for shadowing. The first units are short sentences (some just single words), and it builds up from there.
