This one will only be useful for Australian teachers (except in the astounding event of Aus'n history being taught outside the sunburnt country) and looks like it might be a little chest-thumpingly patriotic. That's not always a bad thing though is it and there are some primary sources you could pinch and then use for more subversive purposes if that's your thing.

This site has debates from the UK House of Commons (I don't think The Lords is included) that go back at least to World War II. The purpose of the site is to raise public awareness, however it is useful to the historian as a source.

This is an enormous, diverse collection of images and audio files based around US history. It's a very eclectic collection so tagging was difficult. If you're doing anything on American culture this would probably be helpful.

If you scroll down or click 'History' you'll see the History lecture podcasts offered by MIT. Personally, I use iTunes to subscribe to university lecture podcasts. My students find them invaluable for their research.

Written transcripts of the 'fireside chats' of Roosevelt, beginning in 1933 and continuing through to 1944. I wonder if, in 60 years, some history teacher will bookmark a site with the Twitter messages that I receive from Obama? Or maybe this message itself? Trippy.
