I know I am a little late to the party, but a few days ago I added the Stitcher app to my phone. Stitcher is a way to listen to all of your favorite podcasts without downloading them to your phone, iPod, etc.
I have been listening on my drive to work, and at times during work, depending on what I am doing.
I love it. I feel it is a way to stay current and listen to interesting facts, as an alternative to watching the news. I also like the background noise in my quiet office.
Here are my favorite podcasts so far.
- Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me (a very funny NPR show)
- Dave Ramsey (financial advice)
- Clark Howard (financial advice)
- Jillian Michaels (get your but into shape advice)
- This American Life (extremely interesting)
- Freakonomics (short and sweet)
Do you have any to recommend? I would like to listen to one about family / parenting, but when I typed that in the search bar the results were overwhelming.
Eats
Breakfast - hardboiled eggs with toast and an unpictured grapefruit.
Lunch - leftover enchiladas with some unpictured angel food cake
Dinner- Dan and I decided to protest the snow and grill.
It was cold,
but oh so worth it. Grilled chicken with roasted green beans and some box stuffing.
Ina Mae helped make the stuffing.
Thought for the day
Does she love her green chair? the hubs and I registered for the same one this weekend!
ReplyDeleteThe Half Size Me podcast is great, too! I love listening to them during my commute. :)
ReplyDeleteI've been missing my daily dose of Ina Mae :) Thanks for app suggestion! I listen to I Heart Radio to listen to my local radio show "Kane Show". I've wanted to listen to podcasts, but like you, I don't want to dl them lol!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'm even later to the party. I didn't know about Stitcher until now! (Submits post to go download app.) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI bet Ina Mae's stuffing was fabulous
ReplyDeleteSome podcasts you may like are:
ReplyDeleteThe Moth
60 second science
Freakonomics
WNYC's radiolab
Vital Signs
This American Life is my all time favorite. The Moth and Radiolab have a similar feel.
Ask me about nerdy science stuff, and I am full of ideas, but sorry no family podcast suggestions!
I like The Moth (sometimes the stories are not family friendly but they will say Explicit next to them) and Radiolab. Also I think it is called Stuff you Should Know and it is a science one that is very interesting. This American Life and Jillian Michaels are my favorite.
ReplyDeleteWall Street Journal This Morning is my favorite news/business/finance podcast. The hosts are very witty
ReplyDeleteParent Savers/Boob Group are my favorite parenting podcast (though I'm a bit biased since I blog for Parent Savers, hah)
