Podcasts. Ever since I started listening to NPR/KCRW during my frustrating rush-hour commutes to Culver City over the summer, I've been fascinated by the soothing sound of stranger's voices reporting on everything from the latest breaking news to hilarious short stories. Queue: Serial, Modern Love, RadioLab, This American Life. I've learned so much about current trends, historic cases, human error, missed connections, and lost love through the detached and mysterious voices behind the many amazing podcasts out in the virtual world right now. Thanks NPR for being so cool.
