My Favorite Podcasts

I love listening to music, but in the last few years I’ve really enjoyed listening to podcasts. I feel like podcast make time go by so much faster than music alone. Whether I’m in the car on a road trip, meal prepping in my kitchen, or traveling for work, you can usually find me listening to some sort of podcast.

One of the great things about podcasts is you can learn new and interesting things with little to no effort. All you have to do is listen!

Here are some of my favorite go-to podcasts:

I definitely have more on my list but those are ones that I come back to time and time again. Let’s dive a little deeper into what these podcasts are about, shall we?

No such Thing as a Fish – A group of 4 British people hanging around talking about their favorite facts from the week. They have some of the most random facts I’ve ever heard, but they are always super interesting and the hosts have so much fun with it. I can’t help but enjoy it, plus I love all things British.

Mortified – One of my all time classics…adults reading from their childhood/teenage diaries. It’s amazing! Some of them are so embarrassing, as you would expect them to be. It’s always entertaining.

How I Built This – An amazing podcast about entrepreneurs and how they built their companies. The guests span across all types of companies and it’s really amazing to see how some of these giant companies today were started in someone’s attic and they were struggling for years.

Bad Yogi – I love Erin and her down to earth personality. She often talks about real life issues in such a genuine way. She’s an ex-pat living in France, and I really enjoy listening to her adventures/thoughts.

Lewis Howes The School of Greatness – This podcast has such inspiration behind it. I feel like everyone can learn something from this podcast, and it’s really worth checking out. I’ve been binging on it lately, and there are some pretty awesome guests too.

Young House Love (has a podcast) – If you own a house, you may have read their blog. I know I read their blog for YEARS. It’s where I learned how to tile, cut drywall, install a runner on my wood stairs, etc. etc. I really learned so much about DIY home renovations from John and Sherry over the years. They put a pause on blogging for a while, but now they are back at it with their podcast! They talk about more than just home renovations, but I’m loving it all over again.

Radiolab – This podcast is the one I go-to when I want to learn some of the most interesting things ever. There is such a wide variety of topics, but always so incredibly interesting.

Honorable mentions: These are in my list and I like them, but not my must listen to list.

Podcasts that are a one time series that I really enjoyed include:
