It’s no surprise that Gen Zs like us always enjoy a good conversation. Whether you need to drown out the silence while doing chores or eavesdrop on the hosts’ substantial conversations, we always want to keep ourselves company. An easy way to do that is to play a podcast episode in the background as you go on with your day. Podcasts are also a good opportunity to learn and reflect about school, relationships, career, love, and everything else about life. Even if you just want good vibes and laughter, podcasts still have a lot to offer!

1) Ganito Kasi ‘Yan
Hosted by two Ateneans studying AB Communication, Ganito Kasi ‘Yan tells stories about college life and adulting struggles that many of us can resonate with. Young hosts Jacob Macquiling and Lance Arevada also give their listeners a chance to share their own stories through the “Tugon Po'' segment in some of their episodes, where they read letters sent to them anonymously and give helpful advice about love or career. They also invite guests to join their interesting conversations, from their blockmates in Ateneo to famous celebrities and influencers like BGYO, Bianca Gonzalez, and Tricia Robredo.

Navigating teenage and young adult life is surely not an easy feat. There is no manual or guidebook to follow that will guarantee us success.

Good thing we have Bianca Gonzalez’ podcast Paano Ba ‘To to give the ultimate ~ate advice~ that makes growing up a little easier. Receiving words of wisdom about the big questions in life from someone who has been through more experiences can be comforting for young listeners.
