It’s Tuesday night — or rather, Wednesday morning. 4:00 AM to be exact. You’d think that with a class scheduled for 9:40 sharp, I’d probably want to be sleeping nice ‘n’ tight in my bed. You’d be wrong. If you happen to find yourself mulling about between 4 and 5 AM, CST of course, I’d invite you to tune in to krlx.org, where you’ll hear me and my co-host Calla tiredly, yet enthusiastically talking about podcasts on our radio show, Rookies.
If you can’t seem to pull yourself out of bed — or even just move your earphones to your earholes — I’ll leave you with this: a list of my favorite podcasts (of which there are many)! I’ll even divide them into categories for you.

Lynn is a Cinema and Media Studies/Women’s and Gender Studies double major. She’s from the desert! You can catch her telling jokes with the standup group Queens of Comedy and the improv group Cujokra, or trying to ride her bike without using her hands. She’s really into writing for infemous (Carleton’s feminist zine), working at Dacie Moses (the cookie house), and eating (food). One time she applied for a job at Cakewalk and didn’t get it.
