How do I better my Chinese speaking and listening?

Can anyone recommend a good podcast, youtube channel or textbook for an intermediate level in Chinese? My school goes by the Integrated Chinese textbooks but I've recently found it to be a bit stilted. I really need to improve my listening skills and want to learn more vocabulary.

At first,I need to know your level,there're some podcasts there,but they are not good enough for language learning(not like ESLPOD),they don't tell you "why".

So I recommend you some cartoon from China,they are for children,the language is simple and so is the speed,and some of them are also interesting. Also,the cartoon  I will recommend to you may have something to do with the chinese culture ,you can learn something from these cartoons.

first level:

1、葫芦娃  hu2lu2 wa2

2、舒克和贝塔   shu1ke4he2bei4ta3

3、小贝流浪记   xiao3bei4liu2 lang4 ji4

4、阿凡提    a1fan2ti2

5、邋遢大王 la1ta4da4wang2

6、海尔兄弟  hai3er3xiong1di4

second level:

1、东方小故事 dong1方2xiao3gu4shi4(a long series about the famous people in ancient China)

2、上下五千年之小太极系列           (chinese legend)

3、西游记   xi1you2ji4

4、哪咤传奇 ne2zha1chuan2qi2

5、秦时明月 qin2shi2ming2yue4

 

third level(documentary or drama):

1、大秦帝国(documentary)

2、西游记、水浒传、三国演义、红楼梦(drama)

3、家有儿女

4、琼瑶系列(琼瑶 is a writer and many drama written by her)

 

fourth level(movies):

1、王家卫系列

2、周星驰系列

 

 

 

I think my opinion is correct,but if you really want some podcasts,here are these:
