The podcasts I listen to fit into three basic categories:
- Essential – those that keep me updated on things I want and need to know about on a regular basis.
- Informative/motivational – The shows that deliver longer-format information on business and tech, and that motivate and inspire.
- Entertainment – Those that cover topics or subjects that I enjoy.
Over the next few weeks I’m going to share picks from each of those categories. If you are reading this, you will want to consider at least checking them out and adding them to your playlist.
The first one is a daily podcast that is at the top of the list: Mac OS Ken. I start every day with Ken Ray’s summary of some of the previous day’s most important headlines, delivered with his trademark humor and commentary. Published Monday through Friday, it is the perfect way to stay informed about what’s going on in the Apple universe. Ken is probably the most-quoted individual on the MacVoices Live! show because of his thoughtful analysis.
If you don’t take any other recommendations from this series, take this one and give Mac OS Ken a try.
