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

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. SerialĀ 

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.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
