5 Things I’m Into: Podcasts

1. Again With This: Beverly Hills, 90210. I have a girl crush on Tara Ariano, who leads this podcast, recapping episodes of 90210 with unapologetic wit. We hate Brandon and we love to hate Brenda.

2. Baby-sitters Club Club. Two guys in their 30s talk about Claudia wearing a bra, how much they hate Stacey, and how religion, ghosts, and current themes creep into the iconic texts from the 80s and 90s.
3. Fat-Burning Man. Abel James is one of my idols. He is adorable, first of all. I saw him on My Diet Is Better Than Yours and started following his podcast, where he interviews all kinds of influential bloggers, doctors, scientists, etc. on ways to improve your general well-being.
4. Serial. Season 1 was obviously amazing, following Adnan Syed’s story. The people involved lived in my old neighborhood and went to the public school I would have attended if not for private school. Season 2 left me a little unsatisfied, but I’ll give Sarah Koenig another chance if she comes back for a third try.
5. Quick and Dirty Tips. I like to listen to Grammar Girl when I’m on my way to an editing job to keep my skills fresh.
