40 Female Podcast Hosts Who Deserve Your Ears
Note: We weren't lying about updating this list. Check out a more comprehensive version here, and keep sending recommendations!
On this week's episode Manoush talks to Phoebe Robinson (co-host of WNYC's newest podcast, 2 Dope Queens) about being a woman behind the mic. And after hearing that episode, you now know that by listening to a female-hosted podcast, you are partaking in a feminist act. So if you're inclined to continue making that feminist statement, we wanted to suggest just a few other podcasts to check out.
(And don't worry, we will continue to update this list, so please let us know what other women-led shows you're into right now.)
