Today, I’m sharing a few of my favorite podcasts. I finally decided I needed to start listening to them, since they’re piling up.
- Tudor Talk: It’s all about the Tudor Dynasty in pop culture, so it covers the t.v. show on showtime, different movies, and books covering the time period. It looks like it’ll be going on for a while, so that’ll give me plenty of time to catch up.
- Jane Austen Podcast: It’s about Jane Austen, her books, movie adaptations and her life. I’ve been catching up on this one as well, but I’m taking my time catching up on it. The woman doing the podcast had to stop doing the podcast due to lack of time, which is why I’m taking my time with it. It’s too bad, because I’m really enjoying it.
- Accio-Potter Wizard Radio: It’s a podcast devoted completely to playing wizard rock, which is something I’ve been listening to more frequently. There are well-known bands like Harry and the Potters and Draco and the Malfoys, and bands I had never heard of before, like The Quaffle Kids and The Hufflepunks. The band names and song titles alone make listening to wizard rock worth it. I’ve been catching up on it slowly, since updates are not as frequent as they used to be.
- The History Chicks: They cover different women, both historical and fictional. Since it’s relatively new, I only have a handful of episodes to catch up on.
- Gilmore Girls Re-Watch Podcast: The hosts are rewatching all 7 seasons of Gilmore Girls, and talking about Gilmore Girls one episode at a time. I actually might start re-watching gilmore girls right along with them, since it’s been a while since I’ve watched it.
The problem I tend to have with podcasts is it’s hard for me to find something I like- it seems like some of the podcasts that are even mildly interesting aren’t updated, and if they are, it’s updated very infrequently. Or it’s interesting, but for some reason, I can’t get into it.
Podcasts are good to listen to, in that I don’t get distracted. Unless I’m listening to Accio-Potter Wizard Radio, in which case I always want to start singing along.
