My Favorite Podcasts

Since I began working permanently from home, I’ve started listening to more podcasts. I’d always listened to them, but mostly on my 12-minute commutes to and from work and mostly in-depth podcast series dedicated to one subject and lasting four–six weeks. However, as I put them on in the background daily for several hours now, I’m finding more weekly podcasts I enjoy — even better if they have several years of backlog to work through.

I was excited to find out Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth were debuting a podcast entitled 90210MG. I’m not embarrassed to admit I was a huge Beverly Hills, 90210 fan, and having two of the main characters from my favorite show watching the episodes and recapping them with inside intel is an early Christmas present. If you share my enthusiasm for the TV drama, tune in to this podcast.

Where are all my true crime fans? I know I’m not alone in my love of that genre; so if you haven’t already, check out Crime Junkie. From cases we’ve all heard about — like Chandra Levy and Scott Peterson — to lesser-known crimes, each episode breaks down real-life stories in an informative, easy-to-listen format.

While I find the music and storytelling at times a bit overdramatic, the You Must Remember This podcast offers an informative look at classic Hollywood. I’ve so far learned about Frances Farmer, Judy Garland and Isabella Rossellini, and that is barely scratching the surface of this archive.

What are some of your favorite podcasts? Send recommendations my way as I continue to discover new shows to listen to on a daily basis.

Down to Earth: Find Your Element for the Ultimate Customized Spa Experience at Chuan Spa

After a stressful pre-holiday season and a busy work schedule, there was no better time for a relaxing spa experience than during my recent trip to Pasadena with the FXExpress Publications, Inc. team. We headed to The Langham Huntington, Pasadena for the 20th anniversary of the GT Tested Reader Survey awards, which meant a jam-packed trip, but I managed to carve a little time out of our busy schedule to visit Chuan Spa at the hotel.

Fukui: A Culture Hub in Rural Japan Worth the Detour

In many cases, less can be more in terms of what smaller cities and small-scale museums have to offer. This is true for Fukui Prefecture, located on the west coast of the main island and best known for its coastline, terrain and quiet towns. While major cities are awash with large-scale museums, bucolic Fukui Prefecture is worth a visit for its assemblage of institutions offering a deeper dive into Japanese life, history and culture.
