Pleasing Podcasts

4/11/2018

I absolutely love podcasts. I have a number of shows in my podcast library on my phone that I regularly listen to. Just like the recent rise in accessible quality television, podcasts are fast following suit with a wider variety of entertaining shows becoming available daily and I have become pretty hooked on a number of them.
Cooking, cleaning, gardening or even exercising, I find that even the most menial  and mundane of tasks can be elevated to enjoyable if you have a good podcast to tune into whilst you are doing it, and I wanted to share some of my very favourite finds with you all. 
First and foremost I think that I need to list my fave movie/TV podcasts, because I do like to stay ahead of what is being released and what looks worthy of a trip to the cinema to see, and these podcasts are my go-to's on the subject of quality viewing:
  • The EMPIRE Film Podcast
  • WHO Magazine's TV Binge List 
  • Man vs Movies
  • Mad About Movies
  • Film Junk
Next are my 'Feel Good' podcast faves, which offer me motivation, inspiration and stimulation when I am feeling like I need a lift:
  • Dear Sugars
  • Something Amazing
  • Your Own Magic
  • Mind, Body Musings
  • LET IT OUT
  • All in the Mind
  • Happier with Gretchen Rubin
  • Mindfully
  • The Lively Show
  • The Pineapple Project
  • The Good People Effect
  • Beautiful Anonymous
  • Ladies We Need to Talk
  • Meditation Oasis
  • Getting Curious with Jonathan Van Ness
Here are my favourite 'Freak Me Out' podcasts, which can be supernatural, crime or just plain weird, but I do like a good freaky tale from time to time:
  • Lore
  • The Other Stories
  • Something Scary 
  • Unravel True Crime
And lastly, but certainly not least are my fave comedy podcasts because we all need a good laugh from time to time:
  • My Dad Wrote a Porno
  • Comedy of the Week - BBC Radio 4
  • The Cracked Podcast
  • Conan O'Brien Needs  a Friend
So there you have it, my favourite regular podcasts, I hope that you can find something inspiring to listen to yourself, and if you have any amazing recommendations please let me know.
Honestly, with you would think that I wouldn't have time to squeeze in any movies with all of the podcast listening that I do, but trust me, I still do!

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY
Release Date: 2018
Rating: MA 15+
Running Time: 135 mins
 
In spite of the tepid reviews from critics, I really enjoyed Bohemian Rhapsody. This is a movie that has clearly been made for fans of Freddie Mercury and Queen, and if you don't like their music, you will, without a doubt, get nothing out of this movie. 
Bohemian Rhapsody is a biographical film, directed by Bryan Singer, about the rock band Queen, with it's main focus firmly fixed on their lead singer Freddie Mercury and his life story up to Queen's Live Aid performance at Wembley Stadium in 1985. 
Without a shadow of a doubt, the music makes this movie and it is a brilliant homage to the late, great Freddie Mercury who is stunningly well portrayed by Rami Malek who is just dynamite for the duration. 
There are no surprises here though, the world knows exactly what became of poor Freddie, but the story of his climb to fame and struggles that he endured along the way are deeply entertaining. I was definitely dazzled by the music, costuming and atmosphere of Queen on stage, and would highly recommend this to fans of the band. 
FINAL SAY: I pity your wife if you think that six minutes is forever.

Yes Padme, I have listened to s***town, it was good, and also very dark. I find true crime the most disturbing, that stuff really keeps me up at night.
