Perfect Podcasts for Cleaning or Sorting Your Life Out

08/10/2018

I’m mixing it up a bit today and talking about some of my favourite podcasts to listen to when I’m getting my clean on. Whether that’s clearing those bastard cobwebs from the ceilings, pulling my hair from the drain, sorting through my bursting wardrobe or simply doing the washing up (that Aaron promised me he would do the night before – but here we are with all of his cereal bowls piled up high and the remnants from last night’s dinner stuck to the pan) – I love to listen to people having a good old chinwag that I can feel a part of when I’m doing all of this as it makes the time fly by.

I’d love to have some speakers to blast these playlists through our entire flat so I don’t have to rely on my flimsy headphones being wrapped up in my arms and stuck into my running armband (which was in fact bought for that purpose, but life got in the way and I haven’t been running for a looooong time). The band always seems to slide down my arm when I’m bent over the bath, pulling my hair that seems to fall out at no end, from the plug hole or laying on the floor with the hoover, trying to get it under the sofa so that if somebody visits and accidentally drops something under there, I don’t need to hang my head in shame, apologising for the amount of dirt, hair and stray bits of cereal that Aaron’s dropped that’s under there. So I’m really excited that Panasonic wanted to sponsor me for today’s post as it gave me an opportunity to think about a resolution to my armband dilemma – make sure to check out Panasonic Multi-Room Speakers if you’re going through the same dilemma!

Here are three of my favourite podcasts to listen to when I’m getting my clean on or simply sorting my life out;

Keeping it Candid


Hosted by Millie Cotton and Sophie Milner, this pop culture podcast delves into some of the latest shenanigans going on whether that’s in the blogging and Instagram world with questionable growth tactics, to viral posts or making friends as adults – they’ve got a bit of everything! I’ve followed Sophie on YouTube and Instagram for a couple of years, so stumbled upon this podcast when she mentioned it a while back. I was so glad I did as it kick-started my love of podcasts and listening to people discussing topics I was constantly reading about in my Twitter feed or that felt were relevant to me, really caught my attention. This podcast is perfect if you’re into digital pop culture and has been my go-to when I’m lacking in motivation to write blog posts.

Loose Lips


Hosted by Luisa Zissman and Anna Williamson, this covers topics that have come up in the news or ones that have been highly requested by their followers. I really enjoy this as there are unfiltered opinions, there’s no apologising for what has been said, it’s blunt and to the point (I’ve got a lot of people in my life that are like this so it’s something I find quite refreshing – Aaron’s like this and it’s one of my favourite elements of his personality).

The Receipts Podcast

The big sisters of the internet, Audrey (formerly known as Ghana’s Finest), Tolly T and your mamacita Milena Sanchez eyyyyy (if you’ve listened, you’ll understand 😉) host an advice based podcast where listeners will write in with their dilemmas for unadulterated advice – they cover everything from career, relationships, racism and religion. Listening to them is like being sat in a room with your mates, having a laugh, catch up and chat which is what makes this podcast so relatable. If you’re up for outbursts of song, reminiscing on old times and sharing stories, this podcast is for you!
Thank you to Panasonic for sponsoring today’s post – I hope to find some great speakers to blast out some of my favourite podcasts (and songs of course – got to have a boogie every now and then!) from all rooms in our flat!
I hope you enjoyed this post and have found a new podcast to listen to whilst you roll your sleeves up for a cleaning session! Let me know if you’ve got any recommendations in the comments below – I’m always on the hunt for new ones to listen to!
Until Next Time

    LMAO Gaby I love the little dig at Aaron here! I love the sound of these podcasts and I am genuinely going to have a listen of the first two as they sound RIGHT up my street! I’ve read quite a few posts on podcasts before but this is the only one I’ve actually properly wanted to listen to by the sounds of them. Keeping it candid sounds like a good one for us bloggers! I definitely need to delve into Youtube more as I feel like I’m missing out on a few cool creators!

      He deffo deserves the dig 😂😂 and they’re probably my faves – Luisa Zissman is savagely honest which I love (it definitely makes for good listening), Sophie totally understands the blogger world and is completely honest about her experience with blogging (like how much to charge for posts and everything!)
      You definitely need to give some YouTube channels a watch, it’s so easy to get lost in an abyss of content 😂❤️❤️

Thought I’d make another appearance on here sinc Thought I’d make another appearance on here since it’s been over a year since my last post, so here’s one from my Tiktok #sustainableootd #ootd #vintedfinds
Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise Had such a good night for @maismurph ‘s surprise birthday outing last night, although I’m definitely feeling it today! Love you both loads ❤️❤️
So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve So I’ve been absent on here for months as I’ve been working and saving away with this gorgeous man to make sure that we could buy a house and we’ve only gone and done it! We’re now in the process of fixing it up and getting our bedroom ready to move in to, so hope we can get in next week! I’m going to be sharing the whole process on our Tiktok account which you can follow @thealbonrenovation - the first post on there is just a video showing the whole house as it was when we bought it on Friday (it’s changed a lot since then!) - so give us a follow it you love a bit of home renovation! 🥳🥳 #firsttimebuyers #newhouse
When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear When the snow was beautiful and didn’t disappear ❄️ what a week it’s been! I’ve been shivering away, heating on full blast and my dressing gown wrapped around me as I work this week - I love the look of snow but hate the cold! Had a day of hypochondria where I had a cough and was convinced it was Covid - but turns out my husband knows me best and that it wasn’t. And that’s probably the most exciting bit of news I l have for you all! How are you all doing?!
Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time Hello all! I’m trying not to leave too much time between posts as I have been in the last few months, so I think a couple of weeks is an improvement! On our way home from food shopping last week (highlight of the week!) we decided to stop by one of my favourite spots to take some outfit photos, where the majority of what I’m wearing is second hand (bag, jacket and jumper). I’m getting extremely stir crazy, but at the same time have turned into quite the hermit, I miss going out for lunch with Aaron, mooching around the charity shops and going out to do site visits for work - let’s hope this vaccine helps bring some normality!
And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to And the final day of 2020 is upon us! I decided to make myself feel like I was going somewhere tonight by putting a full face of makeup on, with the intention of sitting on the sofa sharing a bottle of Disaronno with Aaron to see the new year in! We might hit up the kitchen, the living room and Aaron suggested the bathroom but I wasn’t sure 😂 what have you got planned for tonight? And Happy New Year to everyone!
And that’s Christmas over for another year (alth And that’s Christmas over for another year (although let’s be honest, 2020 may as well not have happened!) and I just hope to god 2021 is a damn site better for everyone! Since I’ve been attempting to cut out purchasing brand new clothing all together, bar a few items such as underwear and pyjamas, I’m hoping once Hertfordshire is out of Tier 4 that I can head to the shops and do some serious secondhand shopping and use the vouchers I got to buy myself some new beauty bits. How was your quiet Christmas and have you got any beauty recommendations for me? #hertsbloggers #fashionbloggeruk #ukfashionblogger #ukstyleblogger #hertsbloggerlove #sustainablefashionblogger #secondhandfashionblogger #petitebloggeruk #petitefashionbloggeruk #outfitinspo #mylookoftheday #ootdshare #ukfashionblog #petitestyle #hertfordshirebloggers #funkyfashion #ukfashion #ootdinspo #canon700d #canon #amatuerphotography #aspiringfashionblogger #aspiringblogger
