Podcasts I’m listening to in late 2024
After a series of heavy posts I thought I’d offer a gentler, more entertaining one for the weekend.
Here I’ll introduce the podcasts I’m currently listening to. (taps mic). Wow, I haven’t done one of these posts since 2021.
In terms of habits, I listen to podcasts pretty frequently. Mostly it’s in multitasking situations where my hands are busy and I can’t read or watch a video: biking, doing dishes, lifting weights, making food, walking, doing housework. I’ll pause to forward a noteworthy program by email to a friend or, for later citation, to myself.
Software and hardware: most of the time I listen via the Podcast Addict podcatcher on my Android Fold, which serves my purposes well. Sometimes I’ll listen to a news program on my desktop or laptops, if I’m not writing about something else.
One more note: all of these are current programs or ones I’m currently listening to. There’s a big backlog of completed programs I’ve enjoyed but which aren’t going on right now; those won’t appear here. Conversely, I’ll mention some programs which are done, but I’ve only now gotten to them.
Now let me break down what follows into categories. I’ll link to websites if I can find them.
