Podcasts Are All The Rage, And Here Are My Top 5 Of 2018

This year I have really gotten into podcasts. Sometimes when I don't feel like listening to music, I just pop in my headphones and listen to a podcast. The topics for podcast range from self-help to murder mystery, and that is one of the reasons podcasts have become so popular this year. They are perfect for walking to class, taking a shower or right before you go to sleep.

That being said, there are so many great podcasts out there, and such little time to listen, so I have compiled my top 5 favorite podcasts of the year!

1. Gals On The Go

Both students at The University of Georgia, these girls serve up great stories, lifestyle tips and picks, and talk about their lives as YouTubers and social media influencers!

2. Kayln's Coffee Talk

"Kayln's Coffee Talk" was the first podcast I listened to, and it changed the game for me! Kayln is such an inspiration and talks about all things motivation and self-improvement tips. This girl sure knows how to make the most out of life and every episode I listen to gives me a motivational boost! You can check out "Kayln's Coffee Talk" here.

3. What We Said

Long-time BFFs Jaci and Chelsea offer up their thoughts on all topics, from getting married young to cutting toxic people out of your life. These ladies are hilarious, and give great advice while also telling their first hand experiences. You can check out "What We Said" here!

4. Eating Alone In My Car

"Eating Alone In My Car" podcast is exactly what it sounds like, and it is the perfect podcast for when you just need to sit back and listen. Melissa Broder, author of "So Sad Today," eats in her car (a new food every episode) and talks about her life, her mental health struggles, and funny experiences.

5. Tiny Meat Gang

Lastly, the "Tiny Meat Gang" podcast hosted by YouTubers Cody Ko and Noel Miller is my personal favorite podcast for when I need a laugh. These guys are hilarious, and if you enjoy their YouTube videos, you will definitely enjoy their podcast. You can listen to "Tiny Meat Gang" here.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
