Jamie Lee Curtis, “Letters From Camp” ‘ This American Life’ The hosts’ differences in tastes makes for compelling conversation. This show exposes me to so much happening in arts and culture that I didn’t know about and deepens my understanding of the things I already love.
Hosted by my old “Grantland” colleague Zach Lowe, it’s consistently smart basketball analysis, a lively crop of guests and two or three moments per podcast that remind me what an obsessive lunatic he is.ĭan Pashman, “The Sporkful” ‘ Slate’s Culture Gabfest’ I listened to the whole first season! It was fun, entertaining and hopeful, but also showed a different side of Michelle.īill Simmons, “The Bill Simmons Podcast” ‘ The Lowe Post’ Kirk Franklin, “Good Words with Kirk Franklin” ‘ The Michelle Obama Podcast’ As someone who is openly under construction, I find it feeds my soul.

Matt Rogers, “Las Culturistas” ‘Midnight Snack with Michelle Collins’ The perfect balance of pop culture commentary with deep dives into news stories, Sam and his team apply the same thoughtful treatment to whatever topic they approach.
