Hi there 🙂
I have recerntly begun to enjoy podcasts as compared to music when on the move. Runs, especially those on the treadmill can get super boring, and I have discovered that podcasts are great for distractions and even learning something new.
There was an old thread on the same topic but it's from way back in 2014, so I was wondering if people would find it interesting to share the latest podcasts that's on your playlist. I am always looking for new ones, but here are few that I subscribe to:
TEDTalks audio, Millenial, Modern Love, A Couple Cooks, StoryCorps, and Books and Authors.
Share your favourites!

Yes. I am in inside with elderly parent. I now have an invisible track I walk.

I also have recently changed it up between music and podcasts.
The two I am currently listening to are: 99% invisible- most of these are quite short so require less concentration and the other is hidden brain very interesting but longer

Great question and suggestions.
I like Invisibilia, On Being, TED Radio Hour, and sometimes The Moth.

I too have found listening to podcast more entertaining than music.

We have similar tastes, @SunsetRunner. 🙂
I just found LeVar Burton Reads - it's like Reading Rainbow for adults. LeVar Burton reads modern short stories. It's so good. http://www.levarburtonpodcast.com/
