Car trips can be awfully dull. Music is great, but there is only so many times you can listen to the same songs on the radio or your phone over and over again before you start to go mad. So, an alternate solution is needed to keep us from going insane on dull and long car rides. Luckily, podcasts are more popular than ever and provide listeners with great forms of entertainment of all types and genres.
