Whether you’re on the train, on your way to university, running in the park, or relaxing at home after work – put on the new MOMENTUM Wireless headphones from Sennheiser and off you go. We are introducing five podcasts you should not miss out on below.
1 – My Dad Wrote a Porno
Yes, you read that title right!

Every week he reads a chapter together with his friends James Cooper and Alice Levine and offers you your weekly dose of confrontation therapy.
2 – The Wired Podcast

In this weekly podcast, David Dobrik and Jason Nash give you a look behind the scenes of their vlogs to tell you more about the real "YouTube life".

The pair publishes a new episode weekly.
5 –The Tim Ferriss Show
The New York Times called him "a cross between Jack Welch and a Buddhist monk", but most people know him because of his bestseller “The 4 Hour Work Week”.
