<p>Rick and Clancy listen to a lot of podcasts.</p><p>In this episode they run through their current favorites, from Bravo recaps to business professors to flight attendants spilling what they actually think about passengers. And they get into why people listen to podcasts in the first place.</p><p>Convenience. Escapism. The strange intimacy of a voice in your ear for hundreds of hours. And maybe something specific to this stage of life, when the music taste is largely set and the discovery itch needs somewhere new to go.</p><p>Podcasts mentioned in this episode:</p><p>Smartless https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/smartless/id1521578868</p><p>Jeff Lewis Live https://www.siriusxm.com/channels/the-jeff-lewis-channel</p><p>Prof G Pod https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-prof-g-pod-with-scott-galloway/id1498802610</p><p>Juicy Scoop with Heather McDonald https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/juicy-scoop-with-heather-mcdonald/id1135332109</p><p>Stuck in the 80s https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/stuck-in-the-80s-podcast/id81501666</p><p>Drama Darling with Amy Phillips https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/drama-darling-a-real-housewives-comedy-podcast/id1684156555</p><p>Creator Science with Jay Clouse https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/creator-science/id1498801064</p><p>So Bad It&#39;s Good with Ryan Bailey https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/so-bad-its-good-with-ryan-bailey/id1482820355</p><p>Podcasting Morning Show https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/podcasting-morning-chat-real-podcasters-real-podcasting/id1728781644</p><p>Two Guys on a Plane https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/two-guys-on-a-plane/id1808734718</p><p>📖 Our book is here.
