Wish I had something to share! I always go down the TikTok rabbit holes, though. I love the street interviews where someone pulls successful business owners aside to ask quick questions about the decisions they've made and how those helped get them to where they are. 

 

Who are our podcast listeners? Anyone?

Wish I had a recommendation, I'm not a big podcast listener...I'm hoping to start enjoying some new reads and audio borrowings from my (digital) lending library very soon. I'd be interesting in hearing other feedback on this too. BTW if people have not heard of the Libby app, its a great way to connect your local library card to free online ebooks and more. I just started to check it out...

Gary Vaynerchuck has a lot of information for free out there- I find him to be an amazing resource.

Not 100% a business podcast, but I do listen to Everyday AI Podcast hosted by Jordan Wilson.

I run one called https://letsgrow.work - an entrepreneur based podcast.  I started my entrepreneur business as a mobile detailer, met a lot of different successful people - people that many of us that don't get those pockets of time with. Figured I'd ask them / share their stories etc. Super chill vibe, a lot of different types of entrepreneurs on there as well!

Man I wish I had some, I listen to probably 30+ hours of podcasts a week if not more but none are business related.  Politics, Video Games, Trivia, Sci-Fi, Tech, Apple, Pop Culture, WWE, and so much more.  Overcast podcast player is my number one APP on my iPhone.  Surprisingly there is a lot to learn just from listening to others and how they run their podcast companies etc and from the tech podcasts to stay at the forefront of what is happening in AI and tech on the horizon.

I would say Gary Vaynerchuk has some good stuff.

 

Theis sadly isn't all my listening at all.  I basically listen to little music so anytime I am driving I am listening to podcasts. The concept changed everything and I was there basically from the beginning because listening to AM radio sucks as it is 5 minutes of content for 15 minutes of ads and other stuff.

I'm not really a podcast girl. 
Free moments are consumed by silence when I can, interestingly enough 😄

That being said, when I am ready to hear some business knowledge nuggets, I prefer checking out certain mindset leaders, some of which have already been mentioned: 

Gary Vee
Simon Sinek

Mel Robbins

 

Also I listen to a fair amount of athletes, especially baseball and hockey players. I go for mindset-type avenues instead of strictly business because, for myself, only looking at business feels like it's pigeon-holing me.

I listen to a bunch of podcasts, and watch a lot of youtube, but none of it is for business-y stuff. I enjoyed the bookclub here for that but you know 😞  And other than that I was on season 13 of The Blox -the entrepreneur competition tv show. All the past contestants are in a private facebook group so we're all still in contact with each other. Occasionally I'll scroll through there to brush up on random news, events, topics of discussion, celebrate each other's wins, the typical accountability buddy type stuff. It's good to have good energy groups. I think some of my Blox people have their own podcasts but I don't listen to them.
