Hey guys
You've probably heard of it
but i found a podcast on iTunes (besides Douchy's...which im waiting for the next episode :p)
It's called VCE Biology by Mr. Barlow
It's really good for an overview, especially if you're just starting out (like me picking up 3/4)

I support this. I preferred his podcasts over douchy's (I found his to be too long). Check out his website at http://mrbarlow.wordpress.com/ too. Some of the stuff their is a good read. He also has a biology app (on his website), although this is not free ($2.99).

I didn't use them so I can't speak for them myself, but others in my year found them helpful and spoke highly of them. If you have a spare $2.99, no harm can come from trying.

Hmm, I really think Douchy's are the best when you're starting out. He just explains things so well. Length is not an issue because you're just being introduced to the topic. I found Barlow's fairly dry to be honest.
