"Feel like a true crime podcast? There are a million of them. Want something that makes you laugh? It doesn't take long to find. Looking for current events or pop culture or just a podcast that feels like friends hanging out? Done and done. And the best part is when you can find a podcast that manages to combine all of this into a podcast that feels like a warm hug."
"A good warm hug podcast doesn't just have to be about fully wholesome content. Sometimes it shares a true crime story, sometimes it features a heartbreaking interview, and sometimes it delves into high-blood-pressure-inducing politics - but no matter the topic, the trick is finding hosts who feel like best friends. That's exactly what these podcasts have. They feel like a deep conversation you're having with some of the best people you'll ever meet."
A vast range of podcasts offers specialized genres like true crime, comedy, current events, and pop culture, making discovery easy. Warm-hug podcasts create a comforting feeling through hosts who act like close friends, even when covering heavy topics such as crime or politics. These shows inspire, provide dopamine boosts, and strengthen listeners emotionally, fitting into daily activities like driving, walking, or chores. Examples include Happier with Gretchen Rubin, which draws on The Happiness Project and focuses on practical steps toward happiness, and Office Ladies, a rewatch podcast hosted by Jenna Fisher and Angela Kinsey that delivers joyful commentary.
