Hi! Hello! Welcom! Or welcome back? I’m Jade, Jade Salty. And here I am, a seventeen year old girl writing a blog. . . Again.
My last blog post was on To do’s During Quarantine. So. . . Here’s some podcasts and albums that have kept me going while stuck at home with my family. . . Hopefully not for much longer though! I’m dying to step outside and party it up with my mates!
-Podcasts
So, if you’re like me and use an Android. . . Unfortunately. You don’t have access to Apple Podcasts, which is were each and every Podcast ever posted, lives. You need an Alternative and if you’re like me even more, you don’t have access to Spotify either because of where you live. . . Woo how I love living in a Africa!
I searched high and low for an alternative, downloaded every app I though would work, and hated them all. Until I found Google Podcasts, I’m still not 100% certain of it because it’s a little hard to use but it’s the closest thing to apple podcasts I could find and seems to have the same contents. So if you’re an Android user for the time being like me, give it a go and let me know!
So there’s about a million different Catagories of podcasts to listen to, one of my Favorites is comedy. Perfect to listen to at night when you’re a little spooked after watching a horror. . Which is what I do almost every day. (Yes I’m a horror fanatic, but get scared after watching them!) My favorites are:
• Views: With David Dobrik And Jason Nash
It makes me giggle every time I listen and if you Watch and enjoy David’s Vlogs on YouTube, there’s no doubt you’ll enjoy his podcast too. However, if you are on the younger side, be advised because there is a bit of muture content!
• Zane and Heath : Unfiltered
More of the Vlog Squad, but hey, they’re my Favorite! Unfiltered, like Views, always makes me giggle and I highly, highly recommend giving it a little listen!
• My Favorite Murder
Now, I know how it looks! ‘My favorite Murder?’ How can that be a comedy podcast? But listen up, they talk murders, but they through a little humor in there. It’s not as gory and Insensetive as it sounds, it makes listening to True crime a lot easier and I lot lighter. However, Karen and Georgia do through out a lot of F-Bombs and there is, obviously, a lot of muture content. So listen at your own risk!
Speaking of True Crime, that brings us to our next catagory, and honestly my favorite. It’s educational to a lot of women, and men, out there to be aware, be scared and always be on the look out. Because, you never know who’s watching.
• Crime Junkie
Now if you say you’re an avid podcast listener and haven’t heard of crime junkie, you’re not an avid podcast listener. They’re everywhere, everyone talks about them because they are truly the best at what they do. Everything Behind a Murder, a Murderer, a sexual assualt
• Monster
Monster, A paracast original. Is a 3 part series on different Seriel Killers, they’re histories, what drove them to commit crimes, they’re families and basically they’re whole life stories. All the stories are told really well and even contains interviews with those that survived or even the victims families. Again, highly recommend.
And now, the miscellaneous Podcasts. The ones that fit into a category but I’m to lazy to actually look up what the catagory is called. So it really just consists of Sci-fi, Horror, Social. . . Things?
• Supernatural: With Ashley Flowers
Supernatural, the Sci-fi, Horror thing I was talking about. Basically consists of stories that can’t be explained, What people think are supernatural encounters, or encounters with life beyond earth. . . Aka, Aliens! It stuns me sometimes, because truly, these stories can’t be explained. The host is Ashley Flowers, who is also the Host of Crime Junkie. So you know, it’s told really well.
• What We Said
I’m not an Avid listener of What we Said, only because it consists of Interviews with celebrities and youtubers on the occasion and honestly, I couldn’t give a rats ass about celebrities and they’re lives. But, Chelsey and Jaci do do quite a bit of other things, like reading subcribers stories, drama, Q&As with their Husbands and so on, which is what I find interesting. So give it a go and let me know!
And that’d a wrap on the Podcasts that I’ve been listening to during the Last 2 months. Not much but it keeps me going, if you come across or know of any podcasts that you think I’d enjoy, please contact me! I’d be forever grateful!
