Need Company? Here Are New Local Podcasts To Listen to

Local podcasts for your consideration

 

 

Podcasts are the new medium for storytelling, because they allow room for more substance to flow, especially for the ones who love to talk. Plus, they're best for the times we’re looking to keep ourselves company without the pressure of having to carry a conversation. And much like our comfort TV shows and favorite singers, we also have our go-to podcasts and favorite episodes.

 

But there are some days where we’d like to hear a fresh, new perspective or different voices. Perhaps for the first-timers, you’re still figuring out a podcast that resonates with you. Luckily, 2021 brought in a lot of new ones worth checking out. So scroll along for more new local podcasts to listen to.

Trust me when I say that we’ll be meeting these people in a different light after pressing play. A new episode premieres every Thursday.
