The 9 Best Podcasts To Listen To During Your Commute

My morning commute into Philadelphia has really taught me that any song can get old— and fast. I've turned to podcasts because it's something different every day (and I can learn something new). The best thing about podcasts is that you can choose any topic you're in the mood for and then listen to people talk about it for like an hour... and I love that situation.

Here are my top 9 podcasts for your commute (and no, NPR isn't one of them):

1. "The Skinny Confidential"

My HANDS DOWN FAVORITE. Lauryn Evarts, the creators of "The Skinny Confidential" blog and her husband, Michael Bostick, team up for this podcast to deliver total realness with all the specificity you could ever want and imagine. They discuss topics from health and wellness to sex and to addiction but in a memorable and creative way.

2. "That's So Retrograde"

This is newest to my list of podcasts, but I've already fallen in love with it. These girls are funny and quirky, but also know how to get the information you want across (while making you laugh simultaneously). "That's So Retrograde" covers a wide variety of subjects, but they definitely have a focus on wellness.

3. "Adderall And Compliments"

The best place for an uncensored opinion...and just another one of my fav podcasts that covers almost everything from pop culture to real-life stories to dating and so much more. You can really cover all the bases with this one.

4. "I Love You So Much"

Kenzie Elizabeth knows how to get my morning started for sure! She talks about an array of relevant subjects in a way young people can relate to. If you're struggling with something, looking for reassurance, or seeking a comfort podcast, this is for you.

5. "The Morning Toast"

I love "The Morning Toast" because it's more of a radio show, but has the feel of a podcast. The girls come to you live every weekday morning with their take on the media's hottest gossip and fun stories! You'll laugh, cry, and gasp (maybe all at the same time).

6. "Crime Junkie"

I'm a health and wellness podcast queen—if you couldn't tell yet— but I'm also a sucker for true crime and any podcast where I can kick in my detective skills. "Crime Junkie" keeps your adrenaline running high and the suspense will make your commute feel faster than ever.

7. "Wrinkled Not Dead"

This couple doesn't believe in a mid-life crisis. They've taken their age to the limits and shown the world that you can still be the best version of yourself as you age. It might not directly apply to me now, but it's interesting to hear their take on things as an older couple in the wellness realm.

8. "The Health Code"

Surprise! Another couple's podcast that I adore! Blogger "Sarah's Day" and her husband Kurt are the cutest couple and discuss all things wellness, relationships, and life on their cheeky podcast.

9. "Tiny Meet Gang"

Anyone who knows me knows I've always loved Cody Ko. When Cody and Noel started the TMG podcast, my comedy world turned upside down. They know exactly how to make me laugh and the podcast is perfect when I need to boost my mood before work. They truly have humor like none other.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
