On another note, I thought it would be fun to share my top five favorite podcasts today. I’m pretty much a podcast-addict. Almost every time I’m in my car, I’m guaranteed to be listening to a podcast – and especially on long car rides. They make the time pass by so quickly, they’re entertaining, they can set your day on a positive note and can teach you so much.
1. Up and Vanished – I have talked about this one before. If you like true crime or if you were a fan of Serial, then you will LOVE this one! It’s about the investigation of Tara Grinstead’s disappearance… what’s so cool about it is that the investigation is happening in real-time and new evidence and clues are revealed in every episode. My friends and I have a group chat about it – it is ADDICTING.
2. Stuff You Should Know – This one is educational, but SO entertaining. In each episode of “Stuff You Should Know,” the two hosts, Chuck and Josh, tackle a difficult topic and explain it in a way that the average person can understand. Not only are they extremely intelligent but they have great personalities – it’s like listening to a couple of your friends! My favorite episodes include “How Public Relations Works” and “How Freak Shows Work” – trust me, they’re amazing.
3. Joyce Meyer – Joyce Meyer is my favorite Christian speaker. She has her own TV show and is the author of several books (which are great), so you may have heard of her before! I love her podcasts in particular because they’re an amazing way to start out your day. The episode are pretty quick – 20 to 30 minutes – so you an easily listen to them on your drive into work or to the gym in the morning. I’ve found that my whole day is better when I listen to her podcasts in the morning. They’re also really good to listen to if you’re having a bad day or struggling with something in particular – God really speaks through her.
4. Tracks to Relax – This one is not one you’d want to listen to in the car! It’s specifically made for helping you fall asleep at night, haha. I sometimes have trouble falling asleep if I’m stressed out or have too much going on, so I’ll put on an episode of Tracks to Relax and it really helps! It’s guided mediation with relaxing music in the background (like the kind you hear when you get a massage).
5. Tell Me Something I Don’t Know – I just started listening to this one – it’s actually a gameshow that’s recorded and produced as a podcast. The thing that’s really neat about this show is that instead of quizzing contestants, it’s the other way around – the contestants are invited to share an interesting piece of knowledge with the audience and are judged on it. I’ve learned the COOLEST stuff from this podcast, it’s journalism that’s disguised in the most entertaining and unexpected way.
Your turn – Tell me your favorite podcasts!
Love the beanie, your bracelets are so gorgeous too.

Love how your beanie and booties match perfectly! 😍 Thanks so much for sharing these podcasts! I've been wanting to get into them but it's super overwhelming when you don't know which ones are good – there are SO many! My boyfriend loves "Tell Me Something I Don't Know" and I can't wait to check out "Stuff You Should Know".
Happy Monday!

I love podcasts, so thanks for the recs! You'd probably like Sword & Scale. It takes a look into past crime stories. Betch Slapped is good for funny post-Bachelor type comedy, and Young House Love Has A Podcast is my favorite for interior decorating.
love this beanie on you! I need to start listening to more podcast and will add these to my list!

Your beanie is too cute! My favorite podcast is The School of Greatness by Lewis Howes. He interviews a lot of successful people like Sophia Amoruso and Tony Robbins and they are always so inspirational! I always feel so inspired after I listen to his podcast- I highly recommend it! I can't wait to check out your faves!

Loved this post!! I have been searching for some good podcasts (I am new to podcasts) and didn't really know where to begin looking. Can't wait to check these out (especially the Joyce Meyer and The Stuff You Should know! I am very interested in reading a review on your LV crossbody! I have seen a few other bloggers wearing that bag and am considering buying but would love to hear a review first. Love how much you are switching up your blog posts lately and adding different content…keeping your readers on our toes! I love your style and read daily! Keep up the good work! -Christine

Great list! I've heard 3 of these, but I'll have to check out the new (to me) ones!
Have you heard "How I Built This" podcast? It's hosted by Guy Roz on NPR, and it's about startup companies that took off, like Warby Parker, Drybar, and Instagram. So fascinating!!!

Dear Sugar by Cheryl Strayed. I'm addicted to her podcast! I listen to it religiously and never miss any! I love her advice and the way she gives it to ya straight.
Love your jeans!

If you love Up and Vanished, I bet you'll also love In The Dark! True crime podcasts are addicting…
Love your look! Love the idea of bag reviews/posts also! I'd love to know how you keep your hair fabulous with the gorgeous curls you have!!!! Also, winter skincare? It takes such a toll on my skin! You may have done hair and skin already but like I said I'm new to following your blog (and blogs in general:) so I was just curious! Thanks and happy Monday!
If you like Stuff You Should Know, you'll also love Planet Money – It's my favorite podcast!

I'm always looking for new Podcasts to try out! Love this post!

I've been addicted to Up and Vanished since you originally posted about it on here! I'm a fan of Gimlet Media podcasts – particularly StartUp. They just finished season 4 which follows Dov Charney, former CEO of American Apparel. I personally recommend season 1 of StartUp though. It's all about the highs and lows of being an entrepreneur!
I'm a huge fan of Radiolab! Have you given it a listen?
I love your hair like this! Very pretty 🙂

My favourite podcasts: the Dollop (sort of like drunk history but not drunk, still very funny!), my favourite murder (true crime and Karen and Georgia are amazing), lore (short myths and ledgends), and criminal
Yes please do a bag review!!
Love your cozy winter outfit! I've just started to get into listening to podcasts while I work, so I'll definitely have to check some of these out! 🙂

Love the bag!

I just got hooked on podcasts last september and went through the entire archive of The Moth within a couple of weeks because I can't stop listening. I would be stuck in rush hour traffic in my car for hours in Miami and not even mind because of that podcast. I love it and I really think if everyone listened to a few of these stories we would have a more compassionate world. Definitely recommend!!
I have gotten addicted to podcasts as I drive more and more in my life. Some of my favorites are: That Sounds Fun with Annie F Downs, Stuff You Missed in History Class, The Black Tapes, Limetown, The Memory Palace, and Mystery Show:).
Love this look! I think EVERYONE should listen to Sophia Amoruso's #Girlboss Radio. I listen to it on my way to work and it gives a huge boost of motivation and inspiration.
Im hooked on Casefile!! It's true crime all over the world. The narrator has a great accent. The first two or three episodes dont have great audio but after that its awesome!!
I love your chunky beanies. I just saw one you'd probably love. Trista Sutter posted it on her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/snowangelknits/
