This Week in Podcasts a weekly roundup of mini-reviews of all of the podcasts I’ve listened to in a week. If you see any podcasts that you feel are missing from my list, there’s a good chance I haven’t listened to the show yet! Feel free to give me recommendations–as well as any feedback or discussion!–in the comments below, in my asks on tumblr, or on twitter.
This week was a fairly quiet week in podcasts, and no episodes really stood out as exemplary or too disappointing, so no highlights or pitfalls in this week’s wrap-up.
And hey, don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter! This week, we talk all about PodCon!
