I have Dr Benjamin's course, "The Joy of Mathematics" on CD's--24 lectures from The Teaching Company. It's pretty good except for the corny jokes and the wild gesticulations. I would recommend it for those teaching Math at any level.

My father is currently taking that course, and will send it to me when he is finished.
