In My Opinion

I love podcasts! I’ve been listening to them for about 10 years, and am always finding new ones that I like. I started podcasting in 2008 myself because I liked listening to them so much. I’ve pondered getting satellite radio a few times over the last decade, but always quickly remind myself that podcasts are better. They’re on-demand, and can be downloaded locally so they don’t need an internet connection or clear view of the sky to listen.

My list changes from time to time, but I wanted to share the ones I enjoy. I’m breaking it down into two lists; one is Christian, and the other is not. The “not” list includes tech podcasts, politics, general interest, or whatever doesn’t fit the category “Christian”.

I also want to note that I don’t get to listen to podcasts nearly as much as I would like. Some of the entries below I listen only very occasionally, but I still count them among my favorites.

Christian
General Interest

I just wish I had more time to listen. I’ve been trying to break myself of one habit for years that would help a little in that regard. I mentally treat podcasts differently than radio. If I have a podcast on in one room and need to leave the room, answer the phone, or take my attention away for any other reason, I pause it first. It’s a habit I just can’t break, I live in a DVR world where we don’t have to miss anything because of an interruption. I could get through more if I made a playlist in the morning and didn’t touch it for the rest of the day, it would be more like tuning to my favorite radio station and leaving it on all day.

Note: the links to the right under “Favorite podcasts” like the other links over there, get updated about as often as the makeup of the US Congress, if not less often. Don’t be surprised that they don’t match up perfectly.
