Listening to music in the shower is a great way to relax and unwind. But have you ever enjoyed podcasts in the shower? If you choose the right podcasts, they can be just as relaxing as your favorite playlist.

Whether you shower in the morning or at night, turning on a podcast while you wash up is sure to teach you something new or give you a little inspiration! If you’re new to podcasts, or just not sure what to listen to in the shower, no worries. We’ve got you covered! These podcasts are on the shorter side, so you can enjoy most or all of an episode in one shower.

In The Shower

What better to listen to in the shower than a podcast made for the shower? In The Shower hosts Taz and Marcus answer the questions we might ponder in the shower like “Is time travel possible?” or “Does space end?” The podcast ended in 2019, but there are two years of back episodes to listen to.

How to Listen to Podcasts in the Shower

If you don’t have a podcast app, you’ll need to download one to get started. Stitcher and Overcast are two popular free podcast apps, but you can also access them on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts as well. Once you download the app of your choice, you can stream any of the podcasts above, or explore and find new ones!

 

To listen in the shower, we recommend a wireless speaker. If you have a Bluetooth speaker, make sure it’s waterproof before taking it into the bathroom.

 

Another option is a Bluetooth speaker showerhead. Streaming your favorite podcasts and music right into your shower will give you the best sound quality.
