No matter your line of work, your interests, or your hobbies, you can pretty much guarantee that there’s a podcast for it. Whether it’s comedy, crime, or camping that gets your brain ticking, there’s a podcast out there for you. But while many people think of podcasts as an alternative to music or audiobooks – they have been called the future of storytelling, after all – they are also something else: a tool.A tool for what? A tool for entrepreneurs to connect, grow, and learn. Podcasts are the perfect place for entrepreneurs to share their stories, and inspire you to share your own story in return. Within them, you can be introduced to a new way of thinking. They allow you to find others who share the same thinking as you and join a community of like-minded business people who can help you flourish.However, it’s no secret that entrepreneurs are busy people, with a to-do list longer than the entire series of Game of Thrones – do you even have the time to listen to podcasts?The short answer here is yes, you do have the time. Unlike lengthy blog posts and time-consuming videos, podcasts are made for multitasking. You can throw one on while you’re doing your morning routine, while you’re commuting to work, while you’re at the gym, while you’re eating lunch – the options are endless.All you need to know now are which podcasts are worth tuning into, and we have just the list:Gary Vee Audio ExperienceYou’ve heard of Gary Vee, of course.
