3. Dax Shepard: “Armchair Expert”

“Armchair Expert” is a weekly podcast hosted by actor Dax Shepard that discusses the truth about being human. Shepard states that there is nothing he loves more than people who can be painstakingly honest and vulnerable with the world about their struggles. As someone who has openly struggled with his sobriety, Shepard invites a new celebrity guest each week to discuss whatever is weighing on their mind in the hopes that removing the stigma around mental health and other “taboo” topics will help others. Each episode offers a totally fresh outlook on life from people in every industry, so if you are a lover of deep questions and getting to know celebrities on a greater level, this one's for you.

 

 

 

4. Rachel Bilson & Melinda Clarke: “Welcome to the OC, Bitches!”

This show is a little more specific but so entertaining nonetheless. The show centers around the hit show from the early-2000s, "The O.C.", as co-stars of the show and real-life friends Rachel Bilson and Melinda Clarke take trips down Memory Lane together. They break down each episode of the hit drama show and give insider tips on what was happening on set that day and who were the best guest star appearances during the 4-year run. This podcast will take you right back to 2003 and hit you with all the nostalgia!
