Hey loves! I took a poll on social media including Twitter (follow me here!) and you voted that this was the post you wanted to see this weekend, so Iâm here to deliver! đ
Below are a list and brief summary of my favorite podcasts! I listen to these at work, in the car, and while Iâm doing cardio too. Leave me a comment if thereâs a podcast you love that I need to check out! Have a great weekend babes! xoxo, Nicole
The LadyGang
Okay for all my girls who love to keep it real, this is the podcast for you! I think this is honestly my favorite out of them all! Every Tuesday, we get an episode from Becca Tobin (former Glee actress/blogger), Keltie Knight (entertainment reporter), & Jac Vanek (clothing designer.) They review the highs & lows of their week (super funny stories!), interview celebrity guests, and play fun games. These girls have all the attitude, wit, and honesty that youâll ever need. They also have a kick-ass secret Facebook group too! Just try one episode out and trust me, itâs amazing! I recommend the recent Spencer Pratt episode đ
Straight Up With Stassi
So funny enough, Iâve never seen an episode of Vanderpump Rules, but I think I first listened to an episode of this podcast because Stassi was interviewing Chad from the Bachelor. Anyways, sheâs a cast member on the Vanderpump Rules show and pretty much a Hollywood âIt Girlâ so to say, except her podcast makes her seem super chill and relatable to me. Sheâs blunt and honest about what goes on in her life, she loves murder and haunted places, and she tells great stories about adventures she has with friends. Sheâs a fellow introvert so I can totally relate to everything she says. Not to
mention, she also loves wine! A lot of her episodes feature fellow reality TVÂ stars too.
I Donât Get It
This one comes out every Tuesday from Ashley Iaconetti (former Bachelor & Bachelor In Paradise contestant), her sister Lauren, and Naz Perez (an entertainment reporter who is honestly like the third sister they never had.) They chat about all of the things they âdonât getâ such as how to play the dating âgame,â social media flirting, and why men arenât settling down now until theyâre almost 40. They bring on guests often that are usually from the Bachelor franchise and itâs a hilarious look into female problems we can all relate to in some way or another!
The Ben & Ashley I Almost Famous Podcast
This is another one that Ashley does along with former Bachelor, Ben Higgins on Mondays. They discuss everything from their current love lives to news in Bachelor Nation to the different dynamics and issues that can arise between men and women in the dating world. Ben is actually also a great host, theyâre very open and fun together and this one is super entertaining if youâre a Bachelor fan (in case you havenât realized, Iâm obviously a huge one! Click here to read my recap of this weekâs Bachelorette episode đ )
The E & G Podcast
Another Bachelor related podcast! This one is different because it is not hosted by anyone who has been on a show. Ian and Geoff are two best bros that live in LA (one is a comedian) and theyâre both recently married. They got into watching the show thru their wives and now post multiple times a week to review the episodes, chat about their Bachelor Fantasy League picks and results, and they also do amazing interviews of former contestants on all of the Bachelor franchise shows. These guys are super sweet and funny and you should definitely binge listen to all of their interviews!
Reality Steve Podcast
If you donât already know who he is, Reality Steve has a spoiler website for everything Bachelor related. He has some inside hookups who tip him off to all the behind the scenes details and secrets of who gets eliminated when, where the dates are, who will be cast for upcoming seasons, etc. I donât personally visit his site much because I donât like spoilers, but his podcast is spoiler-free (except for the recent Heather McDonald issue, donât listen to that one!) Every Thursday he puts out an episode featuring an interview with a former contestant from the franchise. They spill tons of production secrets, opinions of other cast mates, personal experiences on the show, and answer some of the questions we all have such as how they pack for the show or what they do in the downtime between dates. This one gives great insight into just how much of this reality show is actually reality.
Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe
Okay, I promise this is the last podcast that has anything to do with the Bachelor! Kaitlyn was a former Bachelorette but her podcast is more about other things truly. Every Tuesday, she drinks wine with a guest as they discuss positivity, dating, pop culture, her TV experience, and their current lives. She has her fiance Shawn on as well as some great guests including Spencer Pratt and his wife Heidi (can you tell I love them too!?) Kaitlyn just has the best sense of humor and is super honest. Gotta love her!
Sex With Emily
I stumbled upon this podcast because The Ladygang had Emily on their podcast once. She is a sex educator who posts twice a week discussing interesting stories of sex in the news, answering reader questions, and interviewing some great guests. She talks openly about just about everything and I like this one because it is very educational and eye-opening. If youâre a shy person who is afraid to discuss things with your friends or anyone else in your life, this may be a great tool for you. Also I think it is great for helping you learn how to date better, enjoy your life more, and build stronger relationships.
Itâs Happening with Snooki and Joey
This podcast just launched this week and Iâm loving it. If you donât follow Snooki (Nicole) on Snapchat, whenever she posts together with Joey (her gay bestie/makeup artist), I just die! Itâs absolutely hysterical and I love them together. Theyâre almost like bratty siblings who compete to see who can be more of a diva. Theyâre quirky and funny while talking about pop culture, their everyday lives, beauty and fitness tips, and more.
Elvis Duran Show Podcast Family:
The 15-Minute Morning Show
If you love the Elvis Duran morning show, this is just a 15 minute addition to the show basically except it is not on radio so they can be way more open and are even allowed to curse! If you have no idea about this morning show, I listen to it every day for 3 hours and it is just the absolute funniest thing! Even though Iâve never met these people, I truly feel like theyâre my family. The show is out of NYC and Elvis, the host, is an amazing guy who has a heart of gold and is super entertaining. Danielle is a mother of two from the Bronx who has a no-BS attitude but is the sweetest ever. Bethany is a single girl from Wisconsin. There are tons of other members including Skeery (the party man afraid of settling down), Greg T (always up to some crazy antics), Straight Nate, Dave Brody, Web Girl Kathleen, and many more. This bunch just vibes so well as and youâve gotta give em a try! Every weekday they post this podcast around 11am after the big morning show ends.
An Acquired Taste
This one is put out every Wednesday from Bethany, Web Girl Kathleen, and Sam. They describe themselves as âyour quirky girlfriendsâ and discuss some great things. At times they can be funny such as personal anecdotes, silly scenarios they make up, or embarassing stories they tell. Other times they get serious and discuss female issues and really build each other up. Theyâre super relatable, fun, and have the best hearts. Love these girls!
The Off-Air Show
This one is the more guy-focused podcast from the Elvis Duran umbrella. It features Greg T, Skeery, often Ronnie, sometimes Dave Brody, and other frequent guest appearances. These guys argue all the time in the most hilarious way and it is sometimes so awful it is amazing. They discuss whatâs going on in the world, their personal lives, and basically manage to talk for hours about nothing and everything! It is very much like peering in to a bro hangout sesh and getting the inside scoop about what actually goes on behind those closed doors. They discuss dating, listener questions, and also interview some guests. I actually did an appearance on the show wayyyyy back in the day when they first started. Listen here!
Celebrity Buzz
This podcast is put out on Wednesdays by Garrett and celebrity gossip guru Rob Shuter. They discuss the latest going on in pop culture and rumors swirling in the celebrity world. These guys have a great dynamic together and itâs a fun look at the latest in Hollywood!
