Fiction Podcasts That Are Worth a Listen

If you’re in the middle overlapped portion of a Venn Diagram between audiobook listeners and podcast lovers, this post of recommended fiction podcasts is for you! Though I’m more of the latter, I see fiction podcasts as “audiobook-lite.” They’re often released in more digestible chunks with episodes often being 30-40 minutes, which makes them easier for me to listen to rather than an audiobook. Because I’m also impatient, most of the podcasts below are completed. … Continue reading Fiction Podcasts That Are Worth a Listen

I have collected a number of podcast episodes I want to share – and I want to hear what episodes are rocking your eardrums, too! “Saving Grace,” from The Nod, a podcast about Black culture in America, just about lifted the top of my head off, and made me sniffly while I walked the dogs. Autumn is a young woman who falls in absolute love with the videogame The Sims. When she faces a terrible … Continue reading Podcast Episode Recommendations, December 20th, 2018 Edition

It’s podcast recommendation time! I have been cleaning out my subscriptions of podcasts that I intended to listen to but didn’t (is there a word for that yet?) and have added some very fun new ones to my queue. If you’d like to be creeped out, Spooked from WNYC and Snap Judgment is back with a new season of weekly creepy-scary stories heading into Halloween. I know, I know, it’s still August. And it’s like 4000 … Continue reading Podcast Recommendations: August 16, 2018

April 26, 2018 Podcast Episode Recommendations: Sexuality & Science

Jenna Wortham and Wesley Morris of Still Processing

Sometimes, the “add to playlist” randomness of my podcast app provides a wonderful walk for my afternoon, and today was one of those days. While my dogs stretch out on the linoleum with their feet out behind them, thumping their tails with post-walkies bliss, let me share a few episodes that rocked my brain recently. It’s Podcast Episode Recommendation time! First: two from Simplify. This podcast is from the folks who make Blinkist, which are microsummaries, or … Continue reading April 26, 2018 Podcast Episode Recommendations: Sexuality & Science

Ready for a round up of all the podcasts that focus on romance fiction, so you can fill your ears with discussion and goodness? Since my last podcast episode roundup in January when I mentioned the Wicked Wallflowers and Heaving Bosoms podcasts, I’ve found a few more. It seemed like a good idea to put all the romance podcasts that I can find in once place. And – special fun bonus! – if you want … Continue reading Romance Podcasts: A Romance-Focused Podcast Roundup

Time for more podcast episode recommendations!   Why a recurring post of episode recommendations? Two reasons! First, it’s Thanksgiving here in the US, and maybe by now you need a break from all the talking and also the talking. I can relate. I’ve got a few thought provoking and fun recommended episodes, and I hope they bring you a few moments of relaxation or at least control of what you’re hearing. I often find that … Continue reading November 23, 2017 Podcast Episode Recommendations

Time for more podcast episode recommendations. I know many of you are like me and listen to an increasing number of podcasts, so here are a few episode recommendations I think you might like. Episode 7 of Queery with Cameron Esposito in an interview with Stephanie Beatriz, and it is one of those episodes that’s so good I listened to it twice, and asked my husband to listen to it, too. They talk about eating disorders, … Continue reading October 26, 2017 Podcast Recommendations

September 21, 2017: Podcast Recommendations

Rough Translation

After our first and second installments of Podcast and Episode recommendations, my playlist has grown considerably. I listen to podcasts while walking my dogs and while cooking, and I find that sampling new shows is both fascinating, affirming, and intimidating. Fascinating because I learn about so many new cool things, affirming because I’m so excited when there are new shows, and intimidating because I pay closer attention to finer details of my own podcast after … Continue reading September 21, 2017: Podcast Recommendations

Lifehacker’s podcast The Upgrade has been changing in subtle ways – there’s a new co-host, and … Continue reading August 17, 2017: Podcast Episode Recommendations

Here at Bitchery HQ, we are constantly recommending books, music, and podcasts to one another, and it occurred to me that our podcast recommendations, both for particular episodes and for entire series might be of interest – and that you probably also have episodes and shows you like, too. So, hey, there, new feature! Seriously, this is one of the things I love about blogging: New idea? Cool! Run it up the flagpole, see who salutes. … Continue reading Podcasts We Like: Show and Episode Recommendations
