Javier ❤️ The School of Greatness

In this episode of Pod, Actually, Catherine speaks with Javier, a startup investor and innovator based in Murcia in southeastern Spain, about his favorite podcast, The School of Greatness with Lewis Howes. Javier listens for the personal development, the long and curious interviews, and the way Lewis approaches guests with openness rather than instant judgment. For Javier, the show is not really about work, even if it sometimes feeds his work with clients. It is more about the phase of life he is in now, and his ongoing interest in growth, self-care, finance, longevity, curiosity, and becoming a better person. The conversation touches on what it means to admire a podcast host, whether we should meet our heroes, the danger of discovering that openness might be a performance, and why staying curious matters in a polarized world. Javier also reflects on his father, who taught him the value of openness, and realizes during the conversation that Lewis Howes reminds him of his father in ways he had not previously considered.

Parthena ❤️ Wiser Than Me

In this episode of Pod, Actually, Catherine is joined by Parthena — a salesperson, arts lover, and self-confessed podcast sponge — to talk about the show that keeps her walking longer and thinking harder: Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Parthena explains why the podcast’s focus on older women’s lived experience feels both rare and necessary, and shares the moment from Jane Fonda’s episode that genuinely stopped her in her tracks. Along the way, Parthena reveals her binge-listening habits, her Hollywood-adjacent past, and her deep skepticism of male podcast hosts who just can’t help talking about themselves. 🎙 Parthena's Top 5 Podcasts: Wiser Than Me The Tim Ferriss Show Call Her Daddy SmartLess On Purpose🔗 Links Read the companion piece on Substack: https://podactually.substack.comSupport Pod, Actually on Patreon: https://patreon.com/PodActuallyFollow Pod, Actually on Instagram: www.instagram.com/podactuallypodcast📩 Tell us about the podcast you love: podactuallypodcast@gmail.com

Felix ❤️ In Our Time

In this episode of Pod, Actually, Felix, a public speaker and moonshot strategist living in London, talks about his favorite podcast: In Our Time. This is a show that can spend an hour on the sun, mitochondria, or the Sri Lankan revolution and somehow leave him feeling steadier, cleverer, and more interested in being alive. Which is no small thing. 🎙 Felix's Top 5 Podcasts: In Our Time Pod Save America The Rest Is History Today in Focus ItalianPod101 🔗 Links Learn more about Felix here: www.felixriley.comAnd here: www.brilliant-thinking.comRead the companion piece on Substack: https://podactually.substack.comSupport Pod, Actually on Patreon: https://patreon.com/PodActuallyFollow Pod, Actually on Instagram: www.instagram.com/podactuallypodcast📩 Tell us about the podcast you love: podactuallypodcast@gmail.com

Doug ❤️ News In Slow Spanish

On this episode of Pod, Actually, Doug, a social studies teacher in San Francisco, talks about learning Spanish, not through textbooks, but through podcasts. His current favorite? News in Slow Spanish: a gentle, bite-sized way to stay connected to the world while building language skills. What emerges is something deeper: a conversation about learning, identity, and the quiet ways podcasts shape how we move through the world. Doug listens on his short commute, not to chase headlines, but to absorb language, rhythm, and culture—finding in the process a softer, more manageable way to engage with the news. 🎙 Doug’s Top 5 Podcasts: 1. Throughline 2. The Daily 3. Radiolab 4. Radio Ambulante 5.

Trisha ❤️ Witness History

On this episode of Pod, Actually, Trisha, a London-based current affairs writer talks about the podcast she listens to most: the BBC’s Witness History. Each episode is just nine minutes long, yet it captures a moment from history through the memories of someone who lived it. For Trisha, the brevity is part of the appeal — but the deeper attraction is something else entirely. In a media world built around hyper-curated playlists and endless choice, Witness History offers something rare: random discovery. In just nine minutes a day, it offers a glimpse into the past — and a reminder that even turbulent moments eventually become history. Trisha's top five podcasts: 1. Witness History 2. The Globalist 3. Taiwan This Week 4. The Rest Is Classified 5. Empire: World History 🔗 Links Learn more about Trisha here: www.trishadeborchgrave.comRead the companion piece on Substack: https://podactually.substack.comSupport Pod, Actually on Patreon: https://patreon.com/PodActuallyFollow Pod, Actually on Instagram: www.instagram.com/podactuallypodcast📩 Tell us about the podcast you love: podactuallypodcast@gmail.com

Pod, Actually trailer

Welcome to Pod, Actually, a podcast about people's favorite podcasts. Each episode, a guest tells us the show they love most — the one they evangelise about, fall asleep to, argue about, or credit with changing their brain chemistry. We talk about why that podcast matters to them. What it says about their taste. Their obsessions. Their inner life. It turns out that when someone tells you their favourite podcast, they’re telling you who they are. If you love podcasts, recommendations, and conversations that go slightly deeper than “what are you into?”, this is your show. Follow us on Instagram @podactuallypodcast. And subscribe to our Substack at @podactuallypodcast for curated recommendations and bonus thoughts. Welcome to Pod, Actually.
