I ❤️ Podcasts
I may be a bit of a podcast junkie. I’m subscribed to over 200 podcasts and have them organized across 20 categories. I generally listen to 15-20+ hours of podcasts per week.

Podcast apps I use:
This cutting and normalization is really magical when speeding up the audio. I’ve saved an extra 481 hours* beyond speed adjustments so far with Smart Speed!
I began using Overcast in 2015 when Apple’s Podcasts app kept crashing, and then one day all of my podcasts disappeared. Ever since then, I’ve been paying the low price for an Overcast Premium account – it’s only $9.99 per year, which gives you the option to disable banner ads (which really aren’t that intrusive) and upload audio.
Being able to utilize Overcast’s features like Smart Speed on an audiobook is killer!
In addition to Overcast, I still keep Apple’s Podcasts app on hand for discovery and reading reviews.
I also use Castbox for its search feature. Its in-audio search is amazing for finding episodes that cover specific topics you’re looking for.

Podcasts in development:
My girlfriend Pam and I are developing a constructive media endeavor called Forces of Equal, where we are combining our interests in storytelling and advocating for functional health and balanced mindsets.
We are currently in the process of developing a serialized podcast about mental health. In preparation for that, and in light of some newfound self-transcendence, I dropped a work-in-progress weekly podcast called Practice.
Reach out to CK…
I could add so much more info, like my thoughts on each podcast I listen to, but that’d be a lot of material to sift through.
I’d rather interact directly about this kind of stuff. Got any questions or recommendations for me? Hit me up on the Twitter!
@cKdisco ☮️ 🥓 ⚽️
I generally check Twitter at least once a day. Most days, it’s 1-2 times per day. Holla @ me with your #PodRoCK questions and recommendations!
