It is great to listen to some music when you commute, workout or live your life in general. But in the past years podcasts have been gaining popularity and showing that it is a great thing to listen to on what could be “dead time” (like spending hours on traffic or public transportation).
If you listen to podcasts on Spotify, you probably know their algorithm is not the greatest when it comes to recommendations. And finding good podcasts can be quite a job without reliable recommendations. So, here are some reliable recommendations.
