Couple’s Choice: The BEST Podcasts
Podcasts are considered one of the newer forms of journalism, or one of the oldest in a new form. If you haven’t started listening to these “radio shows” you are missing out! We wanted to help you get started on your podcast journey so we asked our readers {hey! That’s you!} for the best podcasts for couples. With your help, we have a fantastic list for you and your spouse to enjoy together. A lot of the podcasts are about relationships and communications, but don’t worry – we’ve tossed some fun in too!

Whenever we go on long drives my husband makes sure to really “stock up” on podcasts. I had never listened to one before our first trip together and I was missing out! We really like to listen to different shows that get our minds going, but that doesn’t mean we ignore our own personal couple development!
With the help of all of you, we have a brand new list of the best podcasts to listen to! Relationship podcasts can be so helpful as we are all learning how to do this together. We always need financial podcasts as we keep striving towards financial security. Then, we wanted to wrap it up with some of YOUR favorites just for fun.
