A Baby Boomer’s Favorite Podcasts – What I Listen to Weekly [Updated]

Favorite Podcasts

favorite podcastsIn the 3rd post of this series, I want to tell you about my favorite podcasts. If you missed the previous posts, check out Podcasts – Why Baby Boomers and Others Should Care and Baby Boomer Podcasts – A Sampling 2020 [Updated].

This post was originally published in September of 2016 and was updated in January of 2020.

Many of the podcasts I listed in the original post have pod-faded including a couple of my favorites.

My tastes in podcasts have also changed since my wife and I have become expats.

I no longer listen to any social media podcasts. The few I did listen to have morphed and changed to discuss platforms like Instagram and Snapchat which I have no interest in. I will probably start listening to FaceBook advertising podcasts this year as I rollout Facebook ads.

We do not have access to a television in our house in Mexico. Therefore, I listen to a lot more news-related podcasts.

Let’s get started.

Favorite Podcasts – Job Search

At this time, I only listen to one career or job search podcast, and that is Mark Dyson’s Voice of the Job Seeker.

The Voice of Job Seekers

What I love about Mark’s podcasts are the guests. Every week, he has great guests from all facets of the job search and career space.

I have listened to other podcasts in this arena, but The Voice of the Job Seeker has the greatest staying power.

Favorite Podcasts – Internet Business

Favorite Podcast – News

Bloomberg Surveillance

Description from iTunes:

Tom Keene, Jon Ferro, and Paul Sweeney have the economy and the markets “under surveillance” as they cover the latest in finance, economics and investment, and talk with the leading voices shaping the conversation around world markets.

This podcast is a cross between a news and a financial podcast.

NPR 1A Podcast from WAMU

Description from iTunes:

1A is home to the national conversation. Joshua Johnson hosts with great guests and frames the best debate in ways to make you think, share and engage.

I have never been a big NPR or PBS listener or viewer. Since becoming an ex-pat I am being much more selective on where I get my news.

What is Missing?

These are just my favorite podcasts. I listen to all of the podcasts I mentioned in the previous post, Baby Boomer Podcasts – A Sampling.

I also listen to a variety of podcasts dealing with politics and political polling. I will not list those as my political leanings are not pertinent to this discussion.

What have I missed? I am always on the lookout for other great podcasts.

Please comment below about any podcasts that you recommend.
