The Best Podcasts You Haven't Heard

    Podcasts are poppin' right now. People love to listen to people talk and people love to hear themselves talk, thus podcasts are created. So many people have begun podcasts, even I have tried to do a podcast, but I didn’t think it was very good. So, with podcasts being so popular I thought I’d list some podcasts that I enjoy. These are relatively small podcasts compared to Joe Rogan’s and anything related to crime, but that is no issue as these are just as educational and entertaining (probably, I don’t listen to crime podcasts as I get too scared and I don’t actually know who Joe Rogan is).

The Catholic Feminist Podcast


    I also enjoy The Catholic Feminist Podcast. I love this podcast because it's so educational, interesting, and helps me understand and open my eyes to Catholic stances and stories on social justice and other topics! It's super welcoming, non judgmental, and a podcast where it's okay to ask questions and not know everything. Despite the name, I truly think so many people would enjoy the podcast and learn so much from Claire and her guests. They often discuss social justices issues such as the Catholic sex abuse scandal, abortion, race, immigration, the death penalty, adoption, birth control, marriage, money, your vocation, law, and so much more! Usually the interviews are with women discussing topics that the guest is experiencing or works in. They also talk about how the guests got into their career/vocation, what the Catholic Church thinks, what the truth is, and where they see God in their life. I find many of their careers, stories, and perspectives fascinating and important to learn about. Seriously, check it out! It's very informative and only like forty minutes long! Plus, I typically only rave about things that are very helpful and I love!
    One of my favorite episodes is with Marcia Lane-McGee. I like how Marcia and Claire discuss Marcia's career and how she got to become her son's confirmation sponsor! Plus, Marcia is a very vibrant person! Here's the link for this one: https://www.thecatholicfeministpodcast.com/shownotes/marcia
    I also like this episode with Sarah Tramonte as it is SO important and informative! I learned so much and think so many people could benefit from listening. Here's the link for that one: https://www.thecatholicfeministpodcast.com/shownotes/saraht

Oh Hello: The P'dcast


    You might've heard of Oh Hello, since it's created by Mulaney and Kroll. However, I feel like it's not as popular as other podcasts, so I still added it. It's a continuation of the Broadway play/musical/comedy show, Oh Hello! It's just these two old geezers, George St. Geegland and Gil Faizon, discussing Princess Diana and announcing their "sponsorships." They often have guests on, such as Lin Manual-Miranda, and connect their lives with Princess Di's. Sometimes, they don't even talk about Princess Di.
    My favorite episodes are "That's Your Funeral" and "Boy for Sale." In "That's Your Funeral" they talk with some guy about Princess Di conspiracy theories like how maybe the Queen was at the wreck disguised as a dog. The link for that is: https://ohhello.simplecast.com/episodes/thatsyourfuneral .
I also love "Boy for Sale" which features Pete Davidson (Yay!) and they talk about Pete's connection Princess Di and his advice for the royal family. That link is here: https://ohhello.simplecast.com/episodes/boy-for-sale

Ghostrunners Podcast


    My absolute favorite is the Ghostrunners Podcast! It’s literally just two men in their late twenties shooting the breeze. I don't know why I enjoy it so much, probably because I also enjoy talking about nothing. I think the stories they tell about their lives are entertaining, clean, lighthearted, and silly. I like how their jokes and stories go over multiple episodes. I don't know why they're even called The Ghostrunners, but I think it has something to do with baseball. Their episodes are around an hour and a half, so they're fun to listen to when doing schoolwork. I really do recommend this podcast I just like listening to them. They're also on youtube!
    It's hard to choose a favorite episode because I like parts of different episodes, but pretty much any episode you'll choose will be good. The newest one is a good one to start with. They talk about kissing and telling the boys, 18 wheeler carwashes, and laugh about Amish music. Here's the link: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/amish-jams/id1463229926?i=1000492779024


Well, there you go. A few podcasts that not everyone is listening to, but needs to listen to! Also none of these photos are mine! God Bless!

20 Activities for 20 year Olds

Good Morning Family and Friends! Recently I have been incredibly bored, hopefully my online classes will entertain me more. I have previously stated that I wasn’t practicing social distancing or whatever, however my mom has been making me stay inside more often and now Colorado is on lockdown. I looked up activities for 20 year olds and didn’t find anything, I guess people make these lists for stay at home moms with young children. So, I decided to make my own list for you, the audience, if you’re bored (which if you’re reading this you probably are) and looking for something to do. Read Woah, how original...read. I don’t read for pleasure often. In the summer I read The Great Gatsby  and I usually read one of Father Greg Boyle’s books some other time in the year. I also read my Vogue magazines. Two books and a magazine isn’t that much. However, since there is more time to do stuff, I figured I could read more. My brother gave me The Princess Bride to read, I’ve read a lit...

What I've Learned in College: End of Freshman Year Fun part 2

Continued from Part 1 8.Cowboys are Real Cowboys are typically seen as people who used to live in the Wild West years and years ago. I honestly think that my grandfather was one of the last American cowboys. While, I wills till continue to this this, I have learned that cowboys are still real! Every once in a while, I will see an old man sporting leather cowboy boots, a blue pair of Wrangler jeans, a button down shirt, a weathered, leather belt, a leather vest, a cowboy hat, a grown out beard, and skin weathered and tan like the leather. I didn’t think people still dressed like this besides for show! This is someone’s real life outfit! I am always astonished to see people like this because I don’t see them regularly. They look like their straight off a horse in ye old west! Students even wear cowboy boots daily! It’s something else. 9. People still pressure you. I don't drink for multiple reasons, and I was under the impression that people don't pressure people i...

Guest Post: Boys, Friendships, and Knowing who You are by Harriet Alove

            I invited a close friend of mine to write a post about whatever she desired. Harriet Alove (pen name) reflects on boys and finding who she is while in college.  ------------------------------             Much like Katherine since I have been at college I have noticed a lot of new different things. I am no longer coddled by the Jesuits, no more Kairos, no more of my sisters passing me in the hallways while I’m having a meltdown during class and having them sit and talk with me ‘till I feel better. Going to one of the largest state universities in the country has truly shell shocked me. Having ‘theology of the body’ as the most of a sex ed class I’ve had, to oddly having more knowledge about Myer’s Briggs types thanks to Mr. Cook’s junior theology. However, what has shocked me the most is how lost I have felt about myself. I’m no longer a swimmer, a good old Catholic girl going to ...
