Chances are, you know someone who\u2019s obsessed with podcasts. You might even be that person. Podcasts have exploded into popularity in recent years. In fact, there\u2019s over 500,000<\/a> on Apple Podcasts alone!<\/p>\n

Whether you\u2019re a long-time listener, or looking for a place to start, we\u2019ve got a great list of podcast episodes for you. What makes it so great? Each one of these episodes covers an important issue, so you can learn something new while you listen!<\/p>\n

Sooo Many White Guys<\/a><\/em>
\nPhoebe, Javier Mu\u00f1oz, and Gayle Smith Fight the Good Fight!<\/a><\/h3>\n

In case it wasn\u2019t clear, we love Phoebe Robinson<\/a>. The best-selling author, podcast queen, and ONE and (RED)<\/a> ambassador uses her influence to talk about important issues, always mixing in a few laughs.<\/p>\n

She began her podcast Sooo Many White Guys as a way to push back against the predominance of white men in comedy. Her podcast often features guests who are women and\/or people of color talking about race, feminism, and social issues.<\/p>\n

Her most recent episode features none other than our own CEO, Gayle Smith, and actor Javier Munoz, who\u2019s also a (RED) ambassador! They discuss how Gayle and Javier got to where they are today, and give some important insights into the HIV\/AIDS crisis<\/a>.<\/p>\n

African Tech RoundUp<\/a><\/em>
\nWajenzi\u2019s Alain Nkurukiye on Galvanising Diasporans to Back Economic Growth in Africa<\/a><\/h3>\n

African Tech RoundUp covers everything digital, technological, and innovative coming out of Africa. This organization, based in Johannesburg, produces podcasts, op-eds, media projects, and more. Their podcasts dive deep into the growing tech scene with guests who are working in the industry.<\/p>\n

This episode features guest Alain Nkurukiye, the founder of tech startup Wajenzi. When he worked in the Netherlands, he wanted to give back to his home in Burundi. Now, his mission is to give the African diaspora a way to invest in entrepreneurs in their home nations.<\/p>\n

Sincerely, Hueman<\/em>
\n2018 Year End Special (Part 2)<\/h3>\n

Sincerely, Hueman tells stories about everyday people who are changing communities. Each episode features leaders that spark social good through local and global movements. They share a diverse array of stories, showing that everyone has the ability to create positive change for people worldwide.<\/p>\n

The second part of their 2018 end-of-year special features Ashaba Faridah. Ashaba, one of the few female pilots in Uganda, is the founder of Bambino Life Foundation. Her organization encourages girls to get an education, creates awareness for children living with disability, and donates needed items to orphanages.<\/p>\n

The Guilty Feminist<\/a> <\/em>
\nPeriod Poverty with Gemma Cairney, Amika George, Grace Campbell<\/a><\/h3>\n

The Guilty Feminist is a comedy podcast that balances hilarious wit with smart discussion. Hosts Deborah Frances-White and Sofie Hagen invite guests to go in-depth on all things feminism.<\/p>\n

This episode is about period poverty. Their guests are activists who tackle period taboos and work to make sanitary products accessible. The discussion highlights the global issue of period poverty and how we can stop it. Of course, some tongue-in-cheek comedy about menstruation is also in the mix.<\/p>\n

Pod Save the World<\/a> <\/em>
\nThe Worst Humanitarian Crisis since WWII<\/a><\/h3>\n

There\u2019s tons of political podcasts out there, but few can break down big issues like Pod Save the World does. This foreign policy podcast makes global issues relatable and easy to understand. They also focus on how people can get involved.<\/p>\n

This episode dives deep into the current refugee crisis, how it happened, and how it affects us all. The guest, David Miliband, highlights how the circumstances for displacement are often man-made. But, there is a silver lining \u2013 everyone, particularly young people, can help solve this crisis.<\/p>\n
