5 Podcasts You Need In Your Life Immediately

MobileDay

Yeah, I'm that person: the one weirdo that actually listens to podcasts. But, if you want my opinion, here are five of my all-time favorite podcasts (in no particular order, of course).

1. Stuff They Don't Want You to Know

This is the podcast that I listen to most often, and I think it's my favorite out of all of these. The topics they cover include everything from the European Organization for Nuclear Research, known as CERN, to UFOs, and if you're interested in conspiracy theories, true crime or anything in between, you'd be a fool not to listen to them at least once. I promise you'll be hooked.

2. Stuff You Should Know

Another podcast under the "How Stuff Works" umbrella, this one deals with completely random topics to current events. Typically, the episodes are kind of hit or miss for me (either I'm interested in the topic that day, or I just pick an older episode). However, they have such a vast selection that you're bound to find something you'll like.

3. Ridiculous History

I recently discovered this podcast from an ad on a different one, and I've loved it ever since. This one is very similar to "Stuff They Don't Want You to Know" (it's made by some of the same people), but instead of being mysterious and foreboding, some of the topics this podcast covers are just as the title implies: ridiculous. You'll definitely get a kick out of this one if you're a history buff that wants to explore some more niche things.

4. Serial Killers

This is the podcast that I probably listen to the least, not because it's bad (on the contrary), it's just a little freaky. They have voice actors who play very convincing serial killers. This podcast deals with the murder cases and the psychology behind why they were committed, which really fascinates me.

5. Dear Sugars

If you're looking for advice or just need a comforting "conversation," I highly recommend "Dear Sugars." This podcast addresses the heartaches of its fans and has made me cry on numerous occasions. These guys tell it like it is.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.

11 Things We Learned From Brooke Davis

"What's more important? What we become or how we become it?"

St. Thomas Aquinas College

"She was fiercely independent, Brooke Davis. Brilliant, and beautiful, and brave. In two years she had grown more than anyone I had ever known. Brooke Davis is going to change the world someday, and I'm not sure she even knows it." - Lucas Scott, An Unkindness of Ravens

Brooke Davis of the hit show One Tree Hill was the it girl - she had it all, or so we thought. She started out as a stuck-up, shallow, spoiled, head cheerleader who didn't have her life together. She slept around a lot and loved to party - sounds like your typical high school teenager right? Wrong. B. Davis had so much more to offer. Caring, loyal, and outspoken, she has taught us some valuable lessons throughout the 9 seasons that OTH was on the air:

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.
