It’s the second week of quarantine and it seems that you have already tried so many things to keep you from being bored. If you think that watching TV or video is not for you anymore, you can try to listen to podcasts this time.

There are many podcasting channels that you can choose from. If you don't like reading a book since it seems boring for you, listen to an audio book narration. That can be a good solution for those who want a good story but don't like to read it from an actual book or from Kindle.

You can also listen to some scary podcasts channels. Those are my personal favorites. The narration can add more chills to your spine if you like paranormal stories and encounters. If you are an alien enthusiast, there are shows under that category as well.

I listen to both so you should have an idea now what type of stuff I’m into. But if you want to be inspired so that you're all set and ready after this pandemic, you can find some channels to inspire you and give you some self-help.

Podcasts are becoming more popular nowadays. People do not just listen to music alone. They are already demanding something more. That’s why podcasts come to the scene. It’s where you can listen to your favorite stories and even audio books.

One of the most popular podcasts shows are self-help and marketing. You can all find them from your favorite podcast app or website. They are all available in most devices. Whether you are using your computer or smartphone and tablet. They both have apps for iOS and android.

If you are new to podcasting, you can choose to listen or record your podcast to any of the top podcasting apps around. Most of them have podcasting stations with different genes. All you have to do is choose which one will work best for you.
