Boston Media Pt. 1 - The Podcast Edition

Some of you may recall, but I used to host a podcast many moons ago. While that’s a story for another day, I have a special place in my heart for podcasting and podcasters alike. It’s such a unique process, that while on the outside it looks really fun (it is) and easy (it’s not), the podcasting game will truly test you! From birthing your podcast, to producing episodes and marketing your content, it’s HARD WORK! And for that reason, I wanted to show some love to many of the podcasts that come from this great city! They range from the solopodders like Black Girl Con Sazon, to husband and wife duo team from Ktchen Table Talk to the whole gang, like the good people at The Chronicles Podcast. It’s no doubt that Boston is a melting pot of dope talent and I wouldn’t be the plug if I didn’t highlight them and show love!

Now because I believe in the collective power of community, I do have an ask of you if you’re reading this. If there’s a podcast below (or one in general) that you really like, I want to also encourage you to show some love too. I can attest to days where a little love helped me feel seen and carried me through. It cost you nothing to show love and here’s a few ways you can that:

-like and share their posts

-comment and tag a friend or two

-shout them out on social media

-and, if you want to go the extra mile, leave a positive review on whatever platform they use to host the podcast!

Loyalty goes a long way, and I promise you they’ll appreciate you for it! With that being said….HAPPY LISTENING FOLKS!

XOXO,
