Who doesn’t love listening to music? We listen to music everywhere we go. Whether its walking to class, driving to different locations or working-out, we find different excuses to listen to our different tunes. But what if you hit a music slump and feel like you’re listening to the same things over and over again? Our suggestion: podcasts. We know podcasts sound like something your parents listen to, but there are so many out there pertaining to different areas you may be interested in, plus more are being made for Millennials and Gen-Z. So, you’re interested and want to check a few out but don’t know where to start. Here is a list of podcasts to check out this fall.
