I listen to podcasts all day while I’m working. iTunes syncs to my phone, so I listen while I’m running errands as well. Will and I listen to podcasts as we drift off to sleep each night.
I listen to a lot of podcasts.
As an avid listener, I want to share some of my favorites with you. This week, funny podcasts:
My Brother, My Brother, and Me (“MBMBAM”) – In this “advice show for the modern era,” brothers Justin, Travis, and Griffin McElroy answer questions culled from Yahoo Answers and other depths of the internet. People fill the internet with strange, hilarious questions, and the brothers give them all the respect they deserve. I actually discovered this podcast before Will, so I think he’s forever indebted.
Answer Me This – Will introduced me to this podcast on a car ride to Iowa, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Helen, Olly, and Martin answer questions from their listeners. The questions are just as sincere and the answers are hilarious. We listened to old episodes in large batches on our honeymoon, so this podcast has a special place in my heart forever.
Sawbones – Justin (from MBMBAM above) and his wife, Dr. Sydnee McElroy discuss all the ways humanity has tried to heal itself in the past. While we’ve all heard of bloodletting, you would not believe how many times medical professionals of yore suggested strapping common barnyard animals to your person to heal various ailments from plague to headaches. Educational and fun.
