What I’m listening to {podcasts}

So I’ve often written about my love of podcasts on the blog, but I had friends who recently asked what my favorites are and since I’ve added some new ones lately, I thought I’d share them here.

I often listen to podcasts while I’m driving or painting. I typically don’t listen to them while I’m doing computer work, since it is too distracting. I have learned so much by listening! It is such a valuable free resource.

I listen to a fairly large variety of podcasts – some are just for fun and some are for learning and growing. And I use my podcast app on my iPhone to listen to them.

{Business/Creativity Podcasts}

The Smart Passive Income Podcast – I’m a fairly new follower of Pat’s and have learned a lot about all kinds of online business issues.

Creating Disney Magic – a refreshing, old-school look at customer service and creating a quality product as well as time-management tools.

Build Your Tribe – I don’t listen to all of these, but I’ve learned about online marketing and using social media for business.

Startup Camp – I’ve enjoyed these interviews with business owners.

Magic Lessons – this podcast came out of the book Big Magic, which I like better than the podcast, but there is some good stuff about creativity on the podcast.

How Did You Get Into That? – interesting interviews with people who’ve started all kinds of businesses.

Creating Your Own Path – there haven’t been recent episodes, but I’ve enjoyed the past interviews with other hand-made business owners.

The Portfolio Life with Jeff Goins – this is focused on writers, but I find so much good stuff that I can apply to my business.

The EntreLeadership Podcast – the gold mine of podcasts for small business owners. I learn something from every episode.

This is Your Life with Michael Hyatt – lots of tips and strategies for blogging and social media.

Elise Gets Crafty – one of the first podcasts I ever listened to. I’ve gotten really valuable info from these interviews with hand-made creative business owners.

{Life/Just-For-Fun Podcasts}

The Lazy Sisters Podcast – two hilarious sisters talk about movies, tv shows, and life.

The Happy Hour with Jamie Ivey – this is probably my favorite just-for-fun podcast. Jamie interview lots of women like Jen Hatmaker and Emily from Jones Design Co. and they talk about all kinds of woman-things.

Inspired to Action – geared towards motherhood

The Simple Show – podcast where Tsh interviews random people. It focuses on simplifying your life and minimalism.

Hope*ologie – Some of my favorite people in the world – Emily Freeman, her sister Myquillyn Smith (The Nester) and their dad talk about a variety of things.

The Phil Vischer Podcast – The founder of Veggie Tales talks with a few other people about religion and current events.

Keystone Church – our church’s sermons.

Relevant Podcast – from the Relevant Magazine, this is a super funny, irreverent podcast with a bunch of guys (and some girls including Shauna Niequist) who crack me up.

The Influence Podcast – interviews with influential Christian women.

That Sounds Fun with Annie Downs – Annie is a writer from Nashville who is really lighthearted and fun. There aren’t many episodes, but she interviews people like Ted Dekker and other Christian writers.

Offcamera – Interviews with tv and movie stars. I especially liked the episodes with Matt Damon and Ed Helms. There is some language on this one.

Here’s the Thing with Alec Baldwin – There are a few good episodes, especially the interviews with Jerry Seinfeld and Jimmy Fallon. I think there may be some language as well.
