Hey girls!
I'd like to get my blog back up and running, so to ease into things, let's start with a listicle.
As a homemaker, I often find myself doing boring routine tasks. Laundry, orgainzing, cleanign out the car... weeding, dishes... the list goes on and on. To help pass the time I like to multi-task by listening to immersive podcasts! I've had this in the drafts for awhile, but I thought you guys would enjoy a list of podcasts that have kept me company. Some are regular listens for me while others are straight from the archive. Hopefully this list helps you stay entertained while organizing seedy corners of your house or doing boring activities like laundry!
These range from wholesome to more serious, and non-fictional education to simple storytelling. Please be advised that some of these shows DO include cursing, swearing, and adult content. The Fiction section in particular contains mostly thriller and light horror, as that is one of the most common genres in fiction, so if that is not your cup of tea, please skip those ones. Furthermore, this is not an endorsement of any of the content, beliefs, or worldviews of any of the shows or hosts. If you're curious about my endorsed views, please visit my blog posts, YouTube channel, or musings on Instagram.
