Member-only story
I travel quite a bit for work and when I’m traveling on the bus, the wifi is spotty and the bus shakes so reading is quite difficult. So rather than trying to work on my laptop or read a book, I decide to pop in my noise cancelling headphones and listen to podcasts that I have downloaded over the week. Side note — I’m always looking for great podcasts to listen to expand my thinking and I love topics like design, entrepreneurship, starting a business, leadership, communication and comedy (which funny enough, are the topics of some of the podcasts that I recommend below).
So if you’re looking for a great podcast to listen to, wait no further — here’s some of the podcasts that I enjoyed recently:
Good One — a podcast about jokes
This one I found while browsing through some of the new podcasts in my podcast app and I was very much interested because I found the video that Jerry Seinfeld created about pop tarts to be so fascinating. If you haven’t seen the video, Jerry dissects his famous pop tart bit and explains how he came up with the story, breaking down each joke and meticulously spending a ridiculous amount of time on making sure the language is just right. Jerry even shaves down syllables because if the flow and rhythm isn’t right, it could throw off the whole joke.
