4 Podcasts For The College Girl Who Doesn't Listen To Podcasts

In This Article:

I know, I know, must young people hear the word "podcast" and think B-O-R-I-N-G. However, I promise they aren't all that boring! If you value and enjoy conversation or storytelling, then podcasts might be something you actually enjoy.

1. Scrubbing In With Becca Tilley and Tanya Rad

Scrubbing In was the first podcast I ever listened to. You may know Becca Tilley from her successful swimsuit line or her social media personality, or maybe even her two stints on the Bachelor. When iHeartRadio decided to pair up Becca with her BFF radio personality Tanya Rad, bachelor nation and KIIS FM listeners tuned in form all over to hear their favs.

Now listeners who previously knew neither of the girls are stumbling upon this People Choice Award winning podcast and relating to so much of the content. Tanya's bubbly, optimistic, modern woman way of life perfectly compliments Becca's Mcdonald's loving, homebody, personality and the two literally are a match made in heaven. They talk about navigating life in all aspects including, dating, professional opportunities and work, current trends, and of course Grey's Anatomy (hence the Scrubbing In title).

They have weekly guests that they chat with for part of the podcast, and then often transition into fun games, answering listener emails to give advice, and even sometimes do segments like "Ask a Guy" where listeners send in questions for men, and they either call guys or ask their male guests in person. It's the perfect podcast for young women everywhere.

2. Armchair Experts

One of my personal favorites and the iHeartRadio Award for Breakout Podcast, Armchair Experts is a podcast you don't want to sleep on, and it will never put you to sleep. Hosted by Dax Shepard and his co-host Monica Padman, the pod dives deep into the lives of the weekly guests, talking about anything from failures, successes, careers, addiction, sexuality, parenting, and really, anything under the sun! That's the beauty of it.

Every Monday, the podcast airs a new episode with a new guest, and it currently has over 80 episodes, including their special Wednesday releases in the "Experts on Expert" category where they bring in just that, experts from all fields. Their website describes the pod as "celebrating the messiness of being human", which is a perfect representation of the show.

If you enjoy listening to honest, open, vulnerable, and genuine conversations, then this is the podcast for you. You will never get tired of hearing one of your favorite stars or experts as a guest, and really feeling as if you're in the attic where they record with Dax and Monica, becoming a legit armchair expert.

3. Serial 

If you're not a big conversationalist, but one mystery and crime, check out Serial. It's a classic murder mystery pod where the host, Sarah Koenig, uncovers details of controversial cases, particularly the one involving Adnan Sayed. Koenig in many ways turns herself into a detective and pours her heart and solve into solving the case of whether Adnan is guilty or not.

Every episode will leave you wanting more, and you can decide for yourself if the suspected individuals are guilty or not.

4. Directionally Challenged

If you love Vampire Diaries, you may know Candice King and Kayla Ewell, who play Caroline and Vicki in the television show and are real-life BFF's. The pod is described on their website as "A Podcast About Realigning Your Internal Compass".

The 30 something women discuss their personal struggles and findings within marriage, building a family, acting, being a woman in today's society, and many other relatable subject topics. The two are honest and vulnerable about their normal and validated feelings, which is refreshing coming from two young, successful women in the entertainment industry.

Be sure to give them a listen if you're just looking to feel a bit guided in this crazy life journey.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
