You will find global news podcasts that air current events from all over the globe. They cover all aspects, from politics to sports, while entertainment news is also included. You will get information on everything you need to know across the planet.

Within the entertainment news, you will gossip about the current trends and the events in the lives of superstars and other famous people. Who? Weekly is such a pod. It is hosted by Bobby Finger and Lindsey Weber, who celebrate pop culture’s greatest Whos and Thems.

Daily news podcasts are dedicated to giving you the news each and every day of the week. Regardless of the day or time of the week, you will get to know something new happening if you plug in. Business news podcasts offer information every now and then on matters of money and finance. They analyse market trends, and stocks and give forex reports. There are programs dedicated to various business segments that deliver fact-based news.

BBC news podcasts are also available. You will get updated information from one of the most trusted news houses whenever you feel like it without listening to the drab segments.
