Guy Talk: Essential Podcasts for Today’s Man

Image

Time is of the essence. In today’s fast-paced world, it seems like there’s no time to indulge in our hobbies, spend time with friends and family, invest in our career, and have time to read or continuously educate ourselves.

We are stuck looking for the most convenient ways to learn and keep in touch with the world of today.

One of those ways is podcasts. Podcasts are great for us who feel like we are just always busy. You can listen on the go. We can learn while we commute or workout.

Podcasts offer a unique avenue for growth, education, and connection. 

Whether you’re seeking something for personal development, laughter, career development, or relationships, there’s podcasts for every man’s interests.

Join us as we embark through the digital airwaves and talk about the top essential podcasts you can use to inform, entertain, and empower yourself to become the best man you can be.


The Joe Rogan Experience

Love him or hate him, Joe Rogan’s podcast is one of the most popular podcasts out there. 

This podcast contains deep-dive interviews with comedians, athletes, scientists, historians, entrepreneurs, or anyone Joe deems an interesting enough person to record a 3-hour interview with.

There is no real format. It’s more of a natural conversation setting, and there are a lot of guests with interesting stories and information to share.

Though, it’s not deemed an education podcast, I find I learn a lot from each episode just through the conversations.

The JRE podcasts last hours, but they are worth your while if you find the interviews with people of interest to you.


Stuff You Should Know Podcast

The SYSK podcast’s hosts Josh and Chuck aren’t guys that claim to be experts on everything. Rather, they pick a topic, and they do some deep research on it to provide you with the crucial information to get you to understand the topic.

There is no common theme. You can learn about anything on SYSK from the history of Halloween, snails, white dog poop, events in history, or anything in between, there’s always something to be learned.

The reason this would be a great podcast to check out is that you get to learn about so many things in one platform. The topics in this podcast also make for great conversation starters.

Give the SYSK podcast a try. You won’t regret it.


Jocko Podcast

If you don’t know who Jock Willink is (Have you been living under a rock?), he is a retired Navy Seal for Seal Team 3. He is also an author who wrote New York Times #1 Best Seller Extreme Ownership: How U.S. Navy SEALs Lead and Win.

Jocko has great stories and motivational podcasts that’ll make like you can run through a brick wall and conquer your life.

Something about the way he talks will empower you and make his words burn into your core.

Okay, that might be a little dramatic. But you’ve gotta give him a listen.

If you feel a lack of motivation, want to conquer your life, or just want to hear good stories, The Jocko Podcast is one worth your while.


Order of Man

The Order of Man podcast is hosted by Ryan Michler. He started The Order of Man to help every man become the best man he can be.

Ryan does interviews with men around the world who have great stories and advice for the everyday man.

Ryan grew up without a permanent male role model in his life. He wanted The Order of Man “to give men a community and resource to become better.”

Whether you want to learn how to make more money, be a better father, be a better husband, or become a strong leader, The Order of Man has got your back.


TED Talks Daily

I’m sure you have all heard of TED Talks, and, if so, you understand why they’re on this list.

TED Talks Daily drops a new episode (you guessed it) daily. Well, every weekday.

The host, Elise Hu, does episodes on any subject imaginable. From business, zoology, art, and everything in between. There is something here for everyone.

He interviews entrepreneurs around the world to learn how they built their brands and shares tips for every entrepreneur’s journey.
