Lately I’ve been binging on some great shows. Nope, not TV shows. Podcasts! From comedy and pop culture to sports and scripted stories, podcasts are your perfect source for niche entertainment. There’s something for everyone! Here are a few of my favorites. Check them out and let me know what you think!
1. The Read
My week is not complete without tuning into The Read. It’s a sassy, smart pop culture recap show and I live for every minute of it. Crissle and Kid Fury are my heroes.
2. This American Life

If you haven’t heard of Serial, you must live under a rock. From the producers of This American Life, Serial follows one story week to week, and trust me, it gets addicting.
