THREE PODCAST CHANNELS WORTH LISTENING TO

We love listening to the stories of other people. We learn and relate to their experiences. Back then, we listened to these things on the radio or watched the television. Today, we were blessed with the gift called podcast. A platform that allows anyone to listen to stories and experiences anytime, anywhere.

Streaming platforms like Spotify offers a wide variety of interesting and helpful podcasts. They range from ridiculously funny to downright gut-punching takes about our current socio-political situation. That said, we are sharing with you three podcast channels in the country we couldn’t help but listen to.

Ang Walang Kwentang Podcast (AWKP with Antoinette Jadaone and JP Habac)

AWKP Podcast

In every list, unless otherwise expressed, there is always a reason why the first one mentioned is important. In this case, Ang Walang Kwentang Podcast, or simply AWKP, takes the top spot because they are currently the number one podcast in the country. The show caters to listeners from all walks of life by sharing relatable stories about the regular experiences of ordinary people. Sometimes, stories from celebrities and personalities and their experiences.

Don’t be fooled by this podcast’s title. AWKP checks all boxes in terms of being relatable, entertaining, and informative. The show’s hosts, directors Antoinette Jadaone and JP Habac, carry topics and conversations as if they are talking to you while having dinner or tamang nakikipag-inuman sa kanto. The stories they share and their questions are a breath of fresh air particularly in a country that still seems to shy away from topics and discussions that are too taboo even to mention.
