Struggling with road trip boredom?
You’ve come to the right place! Speaking as someone who is frequently on the road, idle conversation and “I spy” only entertains you for so long. Lucky for us, we live in the 21st century and there are plenty of options for entertainment on the road. But my favorite road trip activity by far is listening to podcasts.
Not gonna lie, when podcasts first started rising in popularity I thought: why would I want to sit and listen to people talk? And maybe it’s because I had a bad taste in my mouth after years of road trips with my dad listening to Rush Limbaugh and other irksome talk show personalities, but for whatever reason I never even gave them a try. At least not until I got into true crime.
I know, I know. Typical white girl into true crime. But let me tell you, it opened a whole new world of entertainment. After getting semi-burned out on true crime, I started listening to history podcasts, then science, then Office Ladies [woo!], and then – finally, after getting over my Rush Limbaugh bias – news and politics.
Podcasts are the best road trip entertainment. They’re diverse, informative, relaxing, and, best of all, they make you feel much smarter than you really are – which is always a plus. And what’s extra-awesome about them is that they’re almost always free!
In this post, I’ll be making recommendations for the following podcast genres [in this order]:
– ECCLECTIC + CROWD-PLEASERS
– TRUE CRIME
– HISTORY
– SCIENCE, TECH + BUSINESS
– NEWS + CURRENT EVENTS
– POP CULTURE
– EASY LISTENING + EVERYDAY LIFE
– MYTHOLOGY + FOLKLORE
Now that my super-long intro is over with, time to bring on the list! Here are the best podcasts to download for your next road trip:
ECCLECTIC + CROWD-PLEASING PODCASTS
By “crowd-pleasing” I mean they cover a variety of topics, so you can find something for everyone. These podcasts are the best choice for a road trip with lots of people, or if you’re just not sure of the exact “genre” you’re interested in.
1. This American Life
A podcast that’s just about… I don’t know, life? This American Life covers a variety of topics by, of course going over facts, but more importantly by telling people’s stories. Honestly, this podcast will have you laughing one second and sobbing the next – but don’t let that scare you off! This American Life covers some difficult-to-tackle subjects while still being pretty uplifting and positive. This podcast is the perfect way to get some new perspective without feeling bombarded or overwhelmed.
2. RadioLab
How can I explain this awesome podcast in one short paragraph? Radiolab has done so many interesting podcasts about so many random things – from Ruth Bader Ginsberg to Horseshoe Crabs [and their use in medicine]. They even did a full episode on “Falling” which included information on Niagara Falls, how cats fall, falling in love, etc.
As I said before, it’s random. Beautifully random.
3. Stuff You Should Know
I highly, highly recommend Stuff You Should Know to anyone just getting into the podcast game. Josh and Chuck are so fun to listen to and they can make the most boring topic sound super interesting. They cover everything: science, history, myths, true crime, and more!
Some Episodes to Consider:
- Fallout Shelters: Useless? Let’s Never Find Out
- How Bigfoot Works
- The Disturbing Disappearance of Tara Calico
- How Panic Attacks Work
4. Daily Boost
The Daily Boost is a self-improvement podcast, but I labelled it “crowd-pleasing” because it covers so many different and relatable topics. I’m not typically into the “self-improvement” genre because I’m sooo perfect already (jk) but these episodes are thought-provoking and leave you feeling better for having listened. The episodes are short [about 10 mins each] and upbeat, making it a great podcast for your morning commute!
5. Part-Time Genius
Can you wash your hands with lasers? What did Teddy Roosevelt do to Dr. Suess? Why does New Zealand have an Official Wizard?
Part-Time Genius answers all of the questions that you would never think to ask. Is it the most practical information? Debatable. But I absolutely love this quirky podcast and all the useless information that comes with it!
WARNING: You’ll probably find yourself saying “Did you know…” a lot more often in casual conversation.
6. Sidedoor
This podcast from the Smithsonian (so you know it’s good) goes over a bunch of intriguing stories that can’t be found anywhere else! From America’s Best Unknown Mystery Chef to the story of the man known as the “Riverkeeper”, Sidedoor examines some of the most interesting people, events, and recent discoveries.
Learn about how a banjo player from the U.S. and a harpist from China made music magic together, or how a mystery illness threatened our gorilla population. Find out about the origin of Ponzi schemes or how Apollo 12 had a really, really close call! Now on it’s 5th season, Sidedoor has plenty of podcasts for your most intriguing road trip yet!
TRUE CRIME PODCASTS
Yaaaaas. True Crime! I mean, honestly, who doesn’t love True Crime? I don’t know what the deal is with humans, but we love to play detective and despite what some people say, I don’t think we should feel guilty for it. So much good has come from the popularity of True Crime. Many unsolved [or improperly solved] cases have been reopened just because of the popularity gained through documentaries/docuseries and podcasts! Which is pretty cool I think. Here are 17 [a lot, I know] of my favorite true crime podcasts:
7. Crime Junkie
To be honest, I’m kind of glad I jumped on the Junkie train late. I binge-listen this podcast multiple times per week, it’s my favorite true crime podcast, and there are tons of episodes to listen to. 153 of them to be exact!
The Crime Junkie hosts go over the most interesting crimes + mysteries – whether it’s serial killers, familicide, conspiracies or missing persons. Ashley and Britt are best friends in real life and it seriously shows in their podcast banter. They’re a lot of fun to listen to and you sort of feel like you’re talking to your friends about the latest gossip [or tea? Isn’t that what the kids are calling it?] rather than true crime. But they’re still respectful of the victims and often remind listeners that these are real people – which is honestly pretty refreshing.
8. The Clearing
What started as a limited series, has now become a bonified true crime podcast. The Clearing consisted of 10 episodes following April Balascio’s journey to unravel the truth of her father’s life – who is now proven to be a murderer. Now, in 2020, the “limited series” is wrapped up – but host Josh Dean isn’t done. There are more true crime stories to be told!
9. S-Town
It all started with an e-mail from John B. Mclemore – the central character of the podcast – asking Brian Reed [our host] to investigate, in his mind, a man who got away with murder due to his family’s wealth. John talks about how his Alabama town [that he dubbed “Shittown”] is full of crime and corruption, and how it’s “the child molester capital of the state”. Very quickly you realize that John is discontented, but sort of prides himself on being different and more intellectually advanced than the “rednecks” in his town. He quite frequently talks about climate change and discusses [at length] the hedge maze he created on his land – with 64 possible solutions, depending on how you arrange the gates.
Ultimately, what starts as Reed’s halfhearted attempt at investigating this potential murder turns into an invasive look into John’s life. Because of this, S-Town isn’t technically a True Crime podcast – but it’s equally as mysterious, intriguing and, at times, heartbreaking. It wasn’t at all what I expected and yet I could not stop listening.
10. 22 Hours
A D.C. power couple, their 10 year old son, and their housekeeper held hostage and murdered in their home. This podcast goes over the complicated trail of evidence that led to finding the killer in this brutal crime.
11. Over My Dead Body
“You know that couple that seems to good to be true…?”
This is how the podcast begins – a successful, wealthy, good-looking, seemingly perfect couple. But, being that this a true crime podcast, it clearly IS too good to be true. And it isn’t long before cracks form, leading to a nasty divorce and a horrendous murder.
NOTE: Over My Dead Body is only Season 1. Season 2 is under a different name and covers a different subject entirely – Joe Exotic: The Tiger King, which can be found here.
12. Accused
Amber Hunt examines crimes of the century [a new crime every episode]. Crimes that were huge in news and media in their day, but have been largely forgotten since. You’ll be shocked at how many horrendous crimes you don’t remember.
13. Serial
Sara Koenig is an incredible journalist and, it turns out, a talented podcaster! Season 1 she investigates the 1999 murder of Hae Min Lee. Is her ex-boyfriend, Adnan Syed, guilty? Or falsely imprisoned?
Season 2 investigates a completely different type of crime, but I found it just as interesting – the story of Bowe Bergdahl. A soldier who became infamous for being a deserter. He was captured by the Taliban and held for 5 years before being rescued. What were his reasons for deserting? Should he have be imprisoned for his crimes?
Serial is on it’s 3rd season now, but honestly, I just didn’t find Season 3 as grabby as Seasons 1 + 2. It tells multiple different stories from one courthouse and takes a deeper look into our justice system. I’ll admit, it was quite eye-opening [and at times horribly cringey] but it was a little harder to get into. Either way though, Serial is worth the listen and probably my 2nd favorite True Crime podcast.
14. Solve
If you’re anything like me, you think you’re the greatest detective to ever exist [despite facts]. This podcast is kind of revolutionary in that it is an interactive podcast – you need to use Snapchat or Instagram to “interview” suspects and gather enough information to solve the crime. It’s different, but actually pretty fun!
NOTE: A new episode is released every Wednesday!
15. Dr. Death
Do you trust your doctor? You might not after this creepy podcast! Follow the story of a charming neurosurgeon, his 33 patients, and an untrustworthy hospital system.
16. The Dating Game Killer
How did a prolific serial killer fool prison psychiatrists, parole boards, and employers? And how did his one-time appearance on “The Dating Game” lead to his capture? Find out in this gripping 6 part series!
17. Ear Hustle
Ever wondered what happens inside of a prison? [I haven’t, because I can just ask my husband. He’s a correctional officer, not an inmate, btw]. But have I ever wondered what happens AFTER prison? Yup. And now now I don’t have to commit a crime to find out!
Ear Hustle shares stories from inside the prison system as well as stories about reintegrating into society. The stories are sometimes funny, sometimes horrible, but always honest.
18. In the Dark
Season 1: Take a deeper look into the abduction of Jacob Wetterling. A crime that led to largest manhunt in Minnesota history and also led to the federal law that requires all states to maintain a registry of sex offenders. It took 27 years to find Jacob’s remains. Why did it take so long? Could he have been found sooner?
Season 2: Hear the story of Curtis Flowers – a man who has maintained his innocence for 21 years and has been tried 6 times for the same crime. What does the evidence reveal? How can the justice system keep Curtis on death row?
19. My Favorite Murder
Karen Kilgariff and Georgia Hardstark tell each other their favorite tales of murder. With over 200 episodes (and still going strong!) there will be no shortage of true crime podcasts for your road trip entertainment.
20. Man in the Window
A Pulitzer Prize winning investigative reporter, Paige St. John, uncovers never before revealed details of one of California’s most deadly serial killers. What starts as a series of dog killings [as if that isn’t bad enough] soon turns into a long string of crimes – home invasions, rapes and murders.
21. Monster: The Zodiac Killer
Who is the Zodiac killer? Dive into, arguably, the most infamous unsolved murder spree in history. After several sketches, cyphers and taunting letters to the press, the mystery still remains.
NOTE: You can also listen to “Atlanta Monster” here. It’s a newer podcast from the same creators that examines the Atlanta Child Murders from 40 years ago.
22. Dirty John
From the same people who blessed us with “Doctor Death”, Dirty John tells the story of a successful woman who believes she’s met her soulmate: a handsome man who has just returned from a year in Iraq with Doctors Without Borders. Sounds like a catch, right? WRONG. Her children don’t trust him [trust the children, Debra!], and it leads Debra to question “Who did I marry?”.
HISTORY PODCASTS
These aren’t your High School history lessons! These history podcasts are fun [at times even funny] and will go over some historical events that you’ve never heard of before. Honestly, it’s shocking how much I didn’t learn in high school. Yes, I skipped a few classes, but I still blame the system for my lack of history knowledge – it’s just easier that way.
Here are 10 of my favorite history podcasts – try at least one out on your next road trip!
23. Stuff You Missed in History Class
You could fill 1,500 episodes with all the things we didn’t learn about in history class – and they did!
For example, did you know there was a boycott on grapes? Or that there was a Women’s War in 1929? There are so many events in history we don’t know about – time to dive into them!
24. You’re Wrong About …
Speaking of things we didn’t learn about … how about the things we learned about, that aren’t even accurate? The hosts of “You’re wrong about” reconsider a person or event, weekly, and try to cast them in a more truthful light. Mike (from the Huffington Post) and Sarah (from Buzzfeed) are super fun to listen to and their tendency to get a little off-topic is actually enjoyable and funny rather than annoying and distracting.
Topics include: Janet Jackson’s wardrobe malfunction, Jeffrey Dahmer, Copycat Suicide, and Stockholm Syndrome.
25. Cocaine and Rhinestones
A podcast title that’s a twisted version of a country song title – and for a reason. Cocaine and Rhinestones goes over all things country music – but don’t let that deter you! You’ll learn about the only convicted murderer to have a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and the country song about birth control that made everyone lose their minds. It’s a wild ride!
26. Lore
A new spin on history! Lore is a podcast (as well as a TV show and book series) about dark historical tales. This podcast will get into the truth behind these seemingly phony stories because, as they say, sometimes the truth is far scarier than fiction! Where did the idea of werewolves or vampires really come from? What about the concept of covering mirrors? Do we create these unbelievable stories to mask even darker truths? This is the place to find out!
27. Backstory
A podcast created by 4 U.S. Historians. This is the history you want to learn [the fun, interesting and engaging stories] rather than the history you HAD to learn. If things like UFO encounters, the Black Panthers, the number 13, and the history of profanity interest you, you’ve found your people!
28. Nice Try!
The stories of people and groups of people who tried to build a better world… and failed. Everything from well-meaning attempts [such as a self-sustaining ecosystem in Arizona] to self-serving attempts [such as Jamestown or, even worse, Fascism]. Nice Try! focuses on the perpetual search for a perfect world.
29. Presidential
Learn everything there is to know about our Presidents: from George Washington and John Adams to Barack Obama and Donald Trump. Each episode digs deep into how each former president reached office, made decisions and tackled issues.
30. Slow Burn
On the topic of politics, Slow Burn takes a look at how David Duke [an open white supremacist] rose to power and became a political phenomenon. How did a convicted felon and former grand wizard of the Knights of the KKK become a mainstream figure? Why did many voters embrace his message? What did it take to stop him?
31. Ridiculous History
Sadly, history is often ridiculous. Ben Bowlin and Noel Brown get into some of the weirdest stories in human history from the banning of sliced bread to drinking beverages containing severed toes. This is history that will blow your mind and make you say, “this is why aliens don’t talk to us”.
32. Stuff They Don’t Want You To Know
Government conspiracies, UFOs, cults and more! This is definitely a podcast for those who are super intrigued by conspiracy theories and other strange, off-the-wall ideas. Admit it, whether you believe them or not, they’re fun to learn about.
SCIENCE | TECH | BUSINESS PODCASTS
Even if you’re not naturally a science-minded person, you’ll get super into these podcasts! From heavier topics like climate change to fun/fluffy topics [no pun intended] about wolves, there is something for everyone in the world of science. As Bill Nye puts it in his podcast title: Science Rules! Oh yeah, and so does Tech + Business, which I’ve kind of slipped into this section of my post. Oops. I love those topics, too, I swear!
Here are 6 science, tech and business podcasts [but mostly science, sorry] to download for your road trip.
33. TED Radio Hour
Love TED talks? This is your podcast! Hear from some of the world’s greatest thinkers on some of the most interesting topics: from mental health stigmas to how art changes us; from the climate crisis to the 7 deadly sins; from how failures pave the way for success to methods to ignite creativity. It’s all here. Thanks, TED!
34. The Habitat
The true story of a fake planet. On a remote mountain in Hawaii, there is a simulation of planet Mars where 6 volunteers work as imitation astronauts for one, full year. This NASA experiment is being documented from day one through audio diaries that detail their findings, frustrations and relationships with one another. This incredibly interesting limited series will have you hooked – and probably crush your astronaut dreams.
35. How I Built This
From huge platforms like AirBnB to Hollywood names like Kevin Hart – “How I Built This” is a podcast that digs into the background of the most well-known companies, innovators, idealists and entrepreneurs.
36. Science Rules! With Bill Nye
Bill Nye? You mean, the Science Guy?
Ya heard right! In these 101 episodes [and counting] Bill and science writer Corey Powell answer life’s most burning science-related questions. Topics range from common curiosities like climate change and the coronavirus, to more specific topics like “How to Survive Another Chernobyl”. Bill and Corey bring in leading experts, as well as some big (and more familiar) names like Natalie Portman.
37. Oolgies with Alie Ward
Interested in all things science [particularly biology + geology]? This is the podcast for you! Alie goes over the science behind wolves, icequakes, seasons, the human gut biome and more! For each episode, she consults with an expert so you know you’re getting the most accurate information on the subject.
I especially love this podcast because there’s so much information on animals and ocean life – 2 things I am minorly obsessed with – and Alie is just so interesting to listen to! She’s relatable and funny and she makes learning fun! [Remember when your teachers would say that and you’d roll your eyes? Ah, how the tables have turned.]
38. The Skeptic’s Guide to the Universe
Analyzing the world and it’s recent events through a skeptic’s lens. That’s kind of what we need, right? The hosts of Skeptic’s Guide take a look at all the latest controversies and conspiracy theories and decide: is it science, or fiction?
With almost 800 episodes to sate your curiosity, you’ll have enough science podcasts to fill more than one road trip!
NEWS + CURRENT EVENTS PODCASTS
Maybe this is the wrong time of year to get into News podcasts [especially if you’re just not that into politics], but, generally, we all should to stay somewhat up-to-date with current events. If you’re like me, you probably don’t care to hear from the major news networks and you get sick of the bias and one-sidedness of it all. Podcasts are a great alternative and [while they aren’t totally unbiased] they are typically more openminded and aren’t as limited in what they can/can’t say.
The following news + current event podcasts are my absolute favorites in that they are easy to listen to and follow along with, more upbeat than mainstream news, they get straight to the point, and they focus on facts – not opinions.
39. The Daily
20 minutes per episode, 5 days a week and each episode is ready to listen to by 6 a.m.! The Daily covers the biggest stories and is told by the world’s best journalists.
40. Fresh Air
An interview-style podcast that features intimate conversations with today’s most prominent people. Discussions range from mind-altering drugs, to Joe Biden’s political mistakes, to an unlikely friendship with an octopus.
41. Sustainababble
Take it from me, getting into environmentalism can be a dark, depressing road. But Sustainababble keeps it light and informative! This weekly comedy/earth science podcast is the perfect way to stay up-to-date with the issues facing our environment without getting eco-anxiety.
42. Today in Focus
For fans of The Guardian, Today in Focus takes a deeper look at headline news, every weekday.
POP CULTURE PODCASTS
Pop culture. What can I say about pop culture? I used to think it was just Keeping up with the Kardashians and the whole “who’s dating who” type of thing [not that anything is wrong with that…] but it’s so much more! These pop culture podcasts cover so many things [past and present] from Fred Rogers to the Bachelor. It’s fun, light entertainment that’s enjoyable for everyone.
43. Binge Mode
Calling all nerds! Binge Mode takes a deep look into your favorite things to nerd-out on. Films like Harry Potter, Star Wars, and now, the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Having grown up with 2 brothers and no sisters, this is one of my favorite and most nostalgic road trip podcasts.
44. Mugglecast
Sure, the series is like 10 years old, but magic never dies! And neither does my obsessive fandom. Mugglecast is a place to learn more about all things Harry Potter – the theme parks, the books, the video games, the movies, and J.K. Rowling’s ever-expanding universe.
45. Office Ladies
If you’re anything like me, you are quoting the Office ON. THE. DAILY. No exaggeration. I can’t get enough of The Office, so naturally I absolutely fell in love with the Office Ladies podcast. They take things “behind the scenes” with their personal take on each episode, funny backstage stories and super-special special guests (like Ed Helm and Rainn Wilson). Every week is a new episode and I am so here for it!
46. Here to Make Friends
Bachelor/Bachelorette/Bachelor in Paradise. I hate to admit it, but I watch all 3 (yikes) on a weekly basis with a couple friends and we kind of have our own little commentary going throughout each episode. Example: We could NOT get over Mykenna’s little speech to Tammy “You helped me found my own damn voice” on the last season of the Bachelor. Criiiinngge.
Yes, we poke fun at it constantly, but I can’t lie about it – we actually do get into the show and do care about the outcome (whether we’re rooting for or against the Bachelor/Bachelorette). But regardless of our reasons for watching, Here to Make Friends is the perfect podcast for both lovers and haters of the Bachelor series.
47. Armchair Expert
Fans of Dax Shepard [and really just famous people in general] will be psyched for this podcast! While Armchair Expert features many big, big names such as Matthew McConaughey (I had to look up that spelling like 5 times before I got it right – should have just copied and pasted), Jon Bon Jovi, Tom Brady and Bill Gates, it’s ultimately just about life as a human being and the “messiness” of it all.
48. Pop Culture Happy Hour
Get updates, recommendations and opinions on all things pop culture! This is the place for commentary on the most famous movies, TV shows, books, videogames, and music.
49. Night Call
Night Call is a podcasts about pop culture theory, internet fascinations and a lot of conspiracy theory rabbit holes. The ladies of Night Call are both fun and intelligent and they even offer a “call in” phone number [how nostalgic] as well as an e-mail address [for their more tech-savvy followers] where you can contact them for advice on life, love and, as they say, “the coming apocalypse”.
50. Finding Fred
As stated in their own podcast description: “Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood was not a simple show. And Fred Rogers was not a simple man. He was radical. Spiritual. Revolutionary.”
This podcast takes a deep dive into the life of Fred Rogers, and how the lessons of his decades-old children’s show can help us navigate through the craziness of today’s world. The episodes are refreshing and inspiring – just like good ole Mister Rogers.
51. Plumbing the Death Star
How Would You Kill Sonic the Hedgehog?
Which Would Be the Worst Classic Board Game to Be Trapped In?
How Would You Save Han from Jabba’s Palace?
Welcome to the crazy podcast world that is “Plumbing the Death Star”. This is probably the best place to nerd out. The hosts are hilarious (as long as you don’t mind accents and profanity) and they ask the questions that probably nobody else ever asked .. but we’re still glad these 3 guys did! It’s funny, it’s easy to listen to, and best of all, it’s completely pointless. These podcasts are not kid friendly, but definitely make for a good time on a road trip with friends.
52. Song Exploder
Song Exploder is a podcast where musicians go through their most popular songs, piece by piece, and break down the sounds and the words that went into creating the music.
EASY LISTENING + EVERYDAY LIFE PODCASTS
Sometimes, especially early in the morning, you don’t want to listen to anything heavy. These podcasts are the perfect alternative! Most of them focus around everyday life questions, but in a fun and positive way, making them easy to listen to without having to overwork your sleepy brain.
53. LeVar Burton Reads
Reading Rainboooowww…
Sound familiar? LeVar Burton has a famously soothing voice and now you can hear it every week in podcast form. LeVar reads handpicked short-story fiction from around the world, and truthfully, listening to him is almost as good as a 15 minute morning meditation.
54. Circle Round
Made for kids, but full of good life lessons for all! Each 10 to 20 minute episode explores important issues like kindness and generosity and ends with an activity to inspire deeper conversations between children and adults. If your looking for podcasts to enjoy on a road trip with your kids (and you aren’t too worn out to actually talk to them), this is the podcast for you!
55. Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness
A weekly podcast with Jonathan Van Ness (best known from Queer Eye) where he explores basically anything he’s curious about. He talks about being a better cat parent, how contemporary Native Americans are thriving, how you know if your bae is “the one” and much, much more. He also has super interesting interviews with SO many experts like paleontologists, happiness experts (that’s a thing?), oceanographers, astronauts, herpetologists, district attorneys and more!
56. How Do You Deal With…
Life has so many problems. How do you deal with all them? You’re about to find out – messiness and awkwardness be damned!
How do you deal with…
- Traveling alone?
- Money in marriage?
- Getting older?
- Long distance relationships?
No topic is too weird or too personal. Joelle (and her guests) get into it all!
57. No Small Thing
The motto of this podcast? Everything is worth talking about! Enneagrams, relationships, fitness, spirituality – basically all things “life” related are up for discussion in this podcast.
MYTHOLOGY + FOLKLORE PODCASTS
I just recently got into this genre of podcast. Mythology and folklore is interesting and people who love it are even more interesting as it turns out. These podcasters are my kind of people: quirky, fun-loving and into creepy and weird stuff.
Try out one of these 4 mythology podcasts on your next road trip:
58. Spirits
Two female history geeks, geeking out over classic myths while drinking (responsibly)? Yes, please!
Spirits is the top mythology + lore podcast, and for good reason! The podcasts are both creepy and funny (a rare combination) and there are now more than 200 episodes to fill your many, many road trip hours.
59. Let’s Talk About Myths, Baby!
Roman and Greek mythology told from a refreshingly modern perspective. Hear about all the weird (and often terrible) things that Greek and Roman gods did, told from a feminist’s perspective.
60. Drunk Mythology
What is it about mythology fans and drinking? I can’t say. But people are here for it!
Krista and Christian go over the most famous legends and myths with the help of some friends (and some adult beverages).
61. Myths + Legends
Some stories you’ll be super familiar with (Aladdin, Robin Hood, Hercules and so on) other stories you’ll be shocked to hear. Either way, these podcasts are complete with enough wizards, knights, dragons and Vikings to entertain even the geekiest mythology fan!
