As a new mama myself (our little boy is just a few weeks older than Anton) one of the highlights of my week is listening to Julie while taking the little guy for a walk in the stroller. She is candid, hilarious, and always has insightful, intelligent interviews with a fascinating range of guests (writers, documentarians, comedians, Joan Collins!) along with her always entertaining opening monologue. And while I really love a lot of the podcasts mentioned above, sometimes the dulcet tones of NPR are enough to send a new mama to sleep! Julie is a vibrant, refreshing voice in the podcast world - like spending an hour with your smart, funny, brassy girlfriend.

Quick little podcasts that bring to light the design in this world that remains 99% invisible to the general public, yet influence our everyday lives. The stories are really amazing and quirky.

I have so many new podcast...Love these suggestions. I have so many new podcasts to listen to. I wont be redundant by including my top favs but some that I love that havent been mentioned yet:<br /><br />If I Were You - The college humor guys give "advice" which always ends up being just making fun of the people who write in. Its hilarious. Their dynamic is so great. <br /><br />The Monday Morning Podcast - Bill Burrs podcast. Its really just him talking about everything but if you like Bill Burr this podcast is great (the joe rogan show is this same style but you really gotta be a joe rogan fan to be into it, plus everyones clearly high) <br /><br />Hardcore History - Dan Carlin goes in depth in history in a very engaging way. My boyfriend is obsessed. <br /><br />And I wanna give a second mention to Judge John Hodgman since its so freaking funny and different. 2 people come on the show with whatever disagreement they are having (the episode about sitting at the "kids table" is my favorite) and John Hodgman hears their sides and decides who is right.

Some topics aren't as interesting, but one of my favorites is 'Who were the first Americans?" It inspired me to work in archaeology!<br /><br />I also have to second Radiolab and the Moth. Both great shows. If you haven't been to a Moth story night in NYC, you should totally check it out. Definitely the highlight of my last visit to the city.<br /><br />I also really love America's Test Kitchen's podcast for all the cooking stuff and Jillian Michaels for some exercise and health inspiration.<br /><br />Basically, I listen to a ton of podcasts.
