iHeart Podcast Network has three ear worthy podcasts for you
The iHeart podcast network currently has about 5,000 podcasts. Obviously, when you have that many podcasts in your network, they are all not going to be gems. In fact, it's safe to say that searching for gold through the iHeart podcast network, you will discover a lot of iron pyrite, or fool's gold.
But if you know where to look, there are iHeart podcasts that have a strong ear / mind connection. Jordan Klepper Fingers The Conspiracy, Mobituaries, Skyline Drive, and Stuff You Missed In History Class, are just a few of their quality podcasts.
Today, I want to mention three that are exceptional.
Main Accounts: The Story of Myspace: Before Twitter, Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok, there was MySpace. But what happened to the social media giant that suddenly dropped out of favor? Hosted by author and technology reporter Joanne McNeil, “Main Accounts: The Story of Myspace” tells the story of the first social media sensation and details the possible reasons for its collapse, all while featuring tales of the people that made it so special in the first place – the users. Find new episodes every Wednesday.
Behind the Barrier: Voices from the Negro Leagues: This new series lets the listener be a part of the history of Negro Leagues baseball through stories from the players themselves. Featuring archived recollections by some of the greatest athletes to ever put on a pair of spikes – like Hank Aaron, Buck O'Neil, and Willie Mays – “Behind the Barrier: Voices from the Negro Leagues” will have casuals and baseball diehards clamoring for more. Tune in every other Tuesday.
Started from the Bottom: The new iHeartPodcast series interviews successful people who grew up on the outside – people of color, people who weren’t part of the old boys’ network, people who grew up in a world where almost nobody went to college. Hosted by Justin Richmond, producer and co-host of Pushkin’s “Broken Record,” “Started from the Bottom” answers the questions of how these success stories came to be and how each person can overcome the odds en route to their own success. New episodes every Tuesday.

Best Advice podcast interviews Meghan Trainor
A new episode of Spotify’s Best Advice podcast is now live, featuring well-known pop singer Meghan Trainor.
Says Meghan:
“For anyone out there who wants to have a baby, and you're like, oh no, my career isn't where I want it to be. A baby won't ruin it, it'll make it better. Babies bring luck. You're okay. If you want a baby, have a baby.”
In this episode, Meghan Trainor opens up to host Kim Taylor Bennett about what it’s like to be a global pop star while also being a mom, admitting that she was at first nervous due to the demanding nature of her job but has only seen her career flourish since the birth of her son. She also talks about how she has been able to stay true to her pop roots since the beginning of her career- even when no other popular artist sounded like her, why she loves using TikTok to engage with her fans, and more.
Having kicked off with revealing interviews from Big Freedia, Troye Sivan, BANKS, and Prince Royce, the second season of the Best Advice podcast continues with intimate conversations between host Kim Taylor Bennett and special guests Maggie Rogers, Lykke Li, Nile Rogers, Kim Petras, Meghan Trainor, Diplo, Rina Sawayama, and more. The Best Advice Podcast - a spin-off of the popular Spotify for Artists flagship video series Best Advice with nearly five million views on YouTube - offers intimate conversations with some of the most fascinating names in the business sharing personal learnings and in-depth insights into navigating the world of music, commerce and creativity.
New episodes will be released every Thursday through April 13.
