podcasts and music

When I started to work for home, I needed to find cool things to listen to while I worked. This is the cool thing about working from home. It means that I can listen to things without a boss getting angry with me. Anyway. First I became addicted to spotify. I loved that I could find any of the music I wanted and listen to all the songs without paying any money. I didn't care of I had to listen to commercials. They are always really short and not super invasive. However, Spotify got annoying after they charged me accidentally for premium and then gave me a bad attitude when I tried to cancel it and get a refund.

So I started looking for alternatives. I dabbled with ebooks, but I don't really like listening to people read to me. Then I discovered the perfection that is podcasts. Holy crap they are amazing. There are so many topics and formats and things to choose from. I can listen to radio shows from across the world, or learn something new while I am working on something. It's brilliant. I couldn't believe that I had never listened to any podcasts before.

The problem I have found with podcasts is that I don't seem to listen to anything else now. I was always into discovering different kinds of music, but as soon as I added podcasts into my life, that changed. I hardly ever listen to music anymore. It's sad because I love music, but I don't seem to have the patience to find new things that I like the way I used to. Now I am so behind the times when it comes to new songs and artists. Someone will ask me, " have you head of ____" and I'll be like, "nope" What has my life come to.
