I am looking for podcast or videos on REST and RESTful.
Ideally they should cover the basics & the more advanced topics

A REST API (also known as RESTful API) is an application programming interface (API or web API) that conforms to the constraints of REST architectural style and allows for interaction with RESTful web services. REST stands for representational state transfer and was created by computer scientist Roy Fielding.
Examples: a GET request to /user/ returns a list of registered users on a system. a POST request to /user/123 creates a user with the ID 123 using the body data. a PUT request to /user/123 updates user 123 with the body data. a GET request to /user/123 returns the details of user 123.
RESTful API is an interface that two computer systems use to exchange information securely over the internet. Most business applications have to communicate with other internal and third-party applications to perform various tasks.
October 2020) Representational state transfer (REST) is a software architectural style that describes a uniform interface between decoupled components in the Internet in a Client-Server architecture. REST defines four interface constraints: Identification of resources. Manipulation of resources.
It's short and very basic, but check out Intro to REST from the GoogleDeveloper channel.
For podcasts, check out the ThoughtWorks IT Matter podcasts REST - Part 1 of 2 and REST - Part 2 of 2 (audio links broken; summaries are still here) where Martin Fowler, Chris Stevenson, Jim Webber, and Sriram Narayan talk about REST.
Also, there's the "Stefan Tilkov on REST", and maybe the "Web Services with Olaf Zimmermann" episodes from Software Engineering radio.
There might be something for you on the RestWiki and the REST wikipedia article has lots of links to follow for more material.
I recently stumbled upon the "RESTful Web Services" video course by Intertech but haven't checked it out. YMMV.

This is quite interesting article. I am afraid it is not a video or podcast, but thought it can be useful.

For basics, this is a good one : Understanding REST
There are some MIX sessions which you can find by searching for REST but most of them are based on WCF or Data Services.
Thoughtworks has a podcast on REST as well which can you get from here..

Here is one from Stefan Tilkov and another from Alan Dean

If you interested in using REST with WCF and .NET I would recommend Endpoint.TV
