The show shifts in tone from hilarious to heartbreaking, often within the same episode. • 2. Stuff You Should Know • Two pals, Josh and Chuck, solve mysteries like "Can You Control Your Dreams?" and "Where's the Best Place On Your Body to Get Shot?" an episode at a time. With their casual and conversational style, they make things so easy to grasp that even learning about the technical stuff is a treat. • 3. Too Beautiful to Live • Every weekday, this hipster podcast serves up the latest pop culture news from Kanye to 30 Rock and dubs every story either "awesome" or "not awesome." The host, Luke Burbank, also explores trends like people's obsession with zombies and shares some cool new songs you've probably never heard of. • 4. Just Vocabulary • Knocking out vocabulary words two minutes at a time, this podcast is perfect for SAT prep or just upgrading your daily vocab. The new words are sure to stick in your head with the repetition, example sentences and synonyms that each lesson offers. The website also provides vocabulary "power hours" and free online quizzes for a super-slamming study session. • 5. The Moth • In the mood to hear a good story? These often poignant (and usually hilarious) real-life stories are read in front of a live audience by anyone who's got one, including celebs like Ethan Hawke and Candace Bushnell.
