My boyfriend hooked me on the RadioLab podcast. It’s like “This American Life” if “This American Life” was faster paced, had more science, better sound effects and didn’t make you want to weep in your closet at some point. RadioLab – no xanax required.

MY TOP 3 FAVORITE RADIOLABS:

Deception

This Is Your Brain On Love

Vanishing Words

I would just like to add that radio lab is so powerfully engaging, all thought-consuming – i work out to its podcasts at the gym and 45 minutes go by like 5. Also, I started doing what I call “Radiolab Yoga” recently, where i play the podcast on my speakers while performing my Hatha Yoga DVD on silent–imagine 2 hours of intense yoga (and I HATE yoga like it’s my job to HATE yoga) going by like a breeze, and wanting to do more just to slisten to several more hours of Radiolab. It’s that good.
