I found Natalie through her TikTok content, which I also love. I constantly listen to podcasts, but I rarely vibe with culture/opinion podcasts because they can feel “pointless,” or worse, the host(s) is not skeptical or is otherwise unconcerned with factchecking the information they’re confidently presenting their audience.
But not so with Natalie!! Maybe it’s because I also have ADHD brain, but I am obsessed with her approach to podcasting. I like that she dives into the culture of the moment as well as more “niche” subjects she’s interested in (Van Gogh episode especially!). I *love* that she’s so candid about a fact or story she isn’t 100% an expert about and often takes us with her on the process of finding out more info. Relatedly, I never imagined I would find so much joy in following along someone’s “list of things to Google” searches — but I guess I should have since I love going down internet rabbit holes myself. Truly my favorite segment so far!!
