Hi there
My name is Jennifer and welcome to the High on Gravity youtube channel
So, I love
love
podcasts
I think just think it's such a great way
to just kind of pass time
especially when you're on a flight or something maybe
or when you're just walking from A to B
like, why not get a podcast in
get some knowledge in that noggin'
y'know?!
anyway
I just thought I'd list
some of my favourite podcasts
So, the first podcast
that actually got me into listening to podcasts
it's Invisibilia
So, Invisibilia is a podcast about the things or the forces, the "invisible things", that shape us
or shape who we are
really love their first and their second season
I haven't really listened to anything past that
because I've been hooked on a couple of other podcasts now
but their first season is really really great
Second one, which I found through Invisibilia
in a way it's similar in the sense that it's kind of social psych related
that podcast
is called "Hidden Brain"
deals with like findings from economics,
findings from psychology
and it's really entertaining
and I find the insights really interesting
and I can kind of apply that to my daily life
what I like about Hidden Brain
is that most of it
is under half an hour
so it's really good bite-size
"How I Built This"
And I heard about "How I Built This" from like the ads on like NPR
I think I might not have listened to about 10 episodes
but other than that I've listened to every single episode
let me just read you the quick description
"It's about innovators, entrepreneurs, idealists and the stories behind the movement they built"
and it is so interesting
they have so many interviews with so many interesting people
For example, I was never curious about
Sarah Blakely
the person who started Spanx
or you know Clif Bars
I mean I knew what they were
but I mean I wasn't ever interested in the story or anything
but listening to all these stories
it's so interesting and also kind of inspiring
and motivating
it's amazing the amount of drive
these people have to want to do what they do or better a circumstance
or a situation
Another goodie
it's not always my go-to
but it cracks me up
so much
it's a podcast called "No Such Thing As A Fish"
and
it's really informative and also highly entertaining
in the podcast
they talk about
like each person talks about a fact
and they all have facts about, like, everything?!!!
and it's just so interesting
it's just the most bizarre things that you don't think are true or real
or like existing
and they are so..
and they have really good banter
super funny, like sometimes
I'll be listening to it, like, on my way to work or from work
and
I will crack up
like while walking
and people will probably just be like, "uh.."
I also listen to Ted Radio Hour
So it's Guy Raz
from "How I Built This"
and he summarises
a couple of the ideas
and like the related videos and talks that you can find on Ted
and he interviews
those presenters
kind of like bite-size Ted
in podcast format
'cause you're not always going to be watching something
I've just got a quick update
I didn't listen to like tonnes and tonnes
of episodes or anything but
I listened to at least like 1 or 2 episodes
from each of these podcasters
and I really really wanted to add them to this video
because I really like them
So "99% Invisible"
is a podcast by a guy called
Roman Mars
and
the podcast is essentially about
design and architecture
and the things that we don't really notice and we take for granted
and it's the stories behind them
So, for example
how the Shinkansen (bullet train)
was developed
and how biomimicry
had a part to play in the development of the Shinkansen
with the inspiration from the birds
Ok, there's so many interesting episodes
on there and I'm just gonna be downloading heaps of them to listen to
on my walk to work
So I'm going to be pretty occupied with that one for a while
The next podcast I wanted to mention
is called "Ctrl Alt Delete"
It's like an interview format podcast
and she chats to her guests about
their relationship with the Internet
Anyway, thank you for watching
