Hello People!
I've made a list of blog ideas because like I said in my last post, I'm trying to post more even if it truly doesn't matter lol.
I have a podcast going in my ear about 5-6 hours of my work day because I'm just emailing and entering orders and quotes. I do find that I'm forgetting to turn it back on after answering the phone more often but I digress. So, with that being said, here are my current favorite podcasts.
HRR is a riddle/puzzle/improv comedy podcast that my friend, Van, turned me on to and I cannot thank her enough. The hosts are Adal Rifai, John Patrick Coan and my best friend (I wish) Erin Keif. They all met in the Chicago Improv scene but Erin has since moved to Los Angeles. They're ridiculously funny and punny but also be warned they get pretty raunchy sometimes. I also joined their patreon because I truly couldn't get enough and $5/month? Worth it.
2) Bananas
Bananas is a strange news, comedy podcast hosted by Kurt Braunohler (banana boy #1) and Scotty Landes (banana boy #2). For those of you who do not know, Kurt is a comedian and actor and Scotty is a tv and movie writer. I love them both and every episode they end up going on tangents about stories that have to do with what they're discussing and I'm completely drawn into their shenanigans and past lives and just know I'm inviting them both to my wedding whenever that happens lol.
DYNAR is a comedy podcast hosted by Karen Kilgariff and Chris Fairbanks who are both Los Angeles comedians. The initial idea of their podcast was they would drive around Los Angeles and give their actor and comedian friends rides to and from the airport or home or their gig. They stopped driving to and from LAX because it was getting to be too much and then covid happened but they're still so much fun to listen to and I fell in love with Chris because of DYNAR.
The A Beautiful Mess Podcast is hosted by the two founders of the 'A Beautiful Mess' empire, sisters, Elsie Larson and Emma Chapman. The podcast goes into mostly home and lifestyle discussions like their blog does. They talk about secrets of their successful businesses and their hobbies, tips for renovating homes (they've both done a few) and they also discuss books and their children and their lives growing up. Honestly it's my go to podcast when I just need to unwind from the negativity and just need positivity.
I feel like if you listen to podcasts and haven't heard of My Favorite Murder, you must listen to some real outlandish types or maybe only one because I think I'd be wrong if I said this wasn't the most popular true crime podcast. To be fair, it's a true crime comedy podcast but that makes it so much better and palatable. Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark host this monumental podcast in which they tell each other (and us) stories of murders, cults, survival stories (my favorite) and sometimes just strange phenomena. They have such a big following that they read a lot of their listener stories, to which I've written in a few times and still have yet to have one read which is one of my all time goals, but they're truly the most entertaining and sometimes jaw dropping situations people have been in. I've had to stop and go back and listen to certain episodes multiple times because the stories they tell just have my jaw completely on the floor of how crazy and incredible they are. I have joined their fan cult just to be able to get more of Karen and Georgia. I am a murderino.
If you need a new podcast to get yourself into, hopefully you'll listen to one of these favorites of mine! You can tell I love the exactly right network as three of their podcasts are mentioned here lol. Also, if you didn't know I did used to have a podcast with my friend Mollie called Break Time with Myia & Mollie which I don't believe you can listen to anymore but it was 14 episodes of us just shooting the shit and I loved doing it.
xxoo,
Myia
