January Podcast Roundup: New Year, New Bingeing

The new year is underway and, for many of us, resolutions are top of mind. Lucky for you, we have a wide variety of podcasts centered around health, wellness, and achieving goals—to give you the motivation you need to kickstart the year. Read on to learn about inspiring shows that can help hone a new you.

I Weigh with Jameela Jamil

In this Earwolf podcast, Jameela Jamil (of NBC’s “The Good Place”) reminds listeners that health and wellness can’t be measured on a scale. Born from Jameela’s viral social media campaign, which first gained traction amongst her millions of followers, this podcast is a revolution against shame. Each week, Jameela chats with thought-leaders, performers, activists, influencers, and friends about their own experiences with physical and mental health. The results are insightful conversations that celebrate progress, not perfection. 

Manatomy

​​Similarly, Manatomy is a place where well-known men talk honestly about their bodies. It’s not about getting thinner or fitter or putting on muscle—it’s about being honest and humorous. Each week, comedians Danny Wallace and Phil Hilton invite guests to discuss everything from bizarre insecurities, to broken bones, damaged pride, and even the magnetic appeal of cheese. As a listener, you’ll laugh, gasp, and feel like part of a warm awkward family.

Nutrition Diva

If you’re determined to cut out junk food in the new year, Nutrition Diva is here to help.

Marathon Training Academy 

Looking to unlock your potential to become a marathon-goer? Listen as coach Angie Spencer shares her knowledge and experience as both a marathoner and registered nurse. This show has helped countless members of its highly-educated audience (who over-index for having children under 18) achieve their running goals.
