TBU#5 [Minisode] Your podcast listening life: How to make it easier and even more worthwhile to listen to podcasts

Today we’re getting a bit meta and doing a podcast about podcasts — specifically, your podcast listening life. Because yes, that’s a thing now!

If you’re wondering…

• When can I fit listening to podcasts into my schedule?
• What’s the best podcast player to use? And what about hardware?
• How can I keep track of great podcasts I find?
• How can I share podcasts with my friends and audience?
• How can I get maximum value out of my podcast listening time?

…then, Shelley’s got you covered in this episode!

Intentional time management is a big part of our values. It’s even a second meaning of “Two Booked Up” — we don't want you to get TOO booked up in your schedule with things that don’t matter.

So in this episode, Shelley’s going to be sharing some of her best tips for intentionally fitting podcasts into your schedule and making your podcast listening life a bit easier and more worthwhile.

Links we mentioned:

Shelley’s Podcast Player/App of Choice is Overcast (only for Apple devices). Overcast draws its podcasts from Apple Podcasts, but it includes a few special features, including improved sound quality.

Otherwise, listen directly through Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google Podcasts, or Amazon — there are many options.

Would you consider writing us a review?

If you like what you hear on Two Booked Up and you’d like to help us reach new listeners, we’d love it if you’d leave us a review on Apple Podcasts.

This is how to leave a review:

1. Open the show in Apple Podcasts.
2. Scroll down past the episode listing to the heading “Ratings & Reviews.”
3. Leave your star rating and write a review for the show. One sentence saying what you enjoy about the show is great!

What do you think of the minisode format?

We’re trying out a new format — the miniside, which we’re endeavouring to keep under a snappy 15 minutes. We’re going to pepper in minisodes between the books we feature, so let us know what you think of the format and feel free to suggest ideas for future minisodes.

Topics for minisodes may include anything at the intersection of books, intentional time management, entrepreneurship, and personal development.

Also, would you like to know some of the podcasts we’ve subscribed to in our players? If you do, get in touch and let us know.
