A podcast enthusiast’s best of the best

…and this week’s podcast playlists

Podcast playlists from the people behind Hi-Phi Nation, Audible Feast, and the Radiotopia network — and author Danielle LaPorte.

Delicious Ingredients

Every week, Audible Feast publishes the most delicious ingredients of their listening menu: the scrumptious, delectable, savory, rich, sweet, and best podcasts that have fed their ears all week.

Organized Sound

What is music, and how do we judge it? The closest thing to a definition of music is that it is “organized sound.” From the basic chord to the musical mashup, this is a playlist that inspires deeper thinking about music, from Hi-Phi Nation’s Barry Lam.

Radiotopia: Pride

A proud collection of LGBTQ-themed episodes to enjoy as you celebrate Pride month. Radiotopia from PRX is a curated network of extraordinary, cutting-edge shows.

Deeper Melodies

“If I love a song, or a musician, I go on an obsessive quest to learn everything about them. I dig for the meaning in the art. These podcasts make connections to artists, politics, and the creative process of all art-making.” From Danielle LaPorte, author of The Desire Map and White Hot Truth.

Grab the Popcorn

Why leave the house to go to a movie? Lean back and let the surround sound envelop you in these cinematic podcast episodes. Curated by RadioPublic’s own podcast librarian.

The backstory: Every week at RadioPublic, we highlight a new set of hand-curated #PodcastPlaylists — think old-school mix tape, but for podcast episodes. Some share a theme, and others are a selection of favorites from tastemakers like authors, podcast hosts, and publications. Want to be the first to hear when new playlists are available?
