Looks interesting, but unfortunately quality of video and audio is very low.

It sounds like there is an aerobics class going on next door. But I'd really like to find a good video intro to functional programming, preferably in LISP. Any suggestions?

Not Lisp, but Haskell, but still a nice intro: http://channel9.msdn.com/shows/Going+Deep/Lecture-Series-Eri...

(not lisp, but clojure:)

(there's lots for F# and haskell on channel9, and for scala, erlang, scheme elsewhere, and a few for OCaml)

Since up-voting is no longer a way to show public support I'll add my enthusiams for this series.

It's not modern functional programming, but you can't go wrong with SICP videos:
