That's the most he'll get out of me.I’m impressed. You actually capitalized his title.

I'm not sure what kind of podcasts you like. However, my recommendation for a podcast app is Pocket Casts. I use it to listen to my favourite podcasts.Soon we are being forced into a temporary (as in for the next 2+ months) change for work. That has me and my coworker rethinking our food habits. I'll have to work to avoid going off the deep end since I'm working to save but have been neutral towards that (I could be doing better but the year isn't done yet).
Also going to need some more podcast episodes because privacy is essentially gone.
I've been using Google podcast and Spotify. I had issues finding things on Google podcast (which is odd) so I've given up on it for the moment and I'm just using Spotify.I'm not sure what kind of podcasts you like.

I've never used Spotify for podcasts but only for music. I like Pocket Casts, since it allows one to download podcasts and listen to them offline, rather than streaming them. Pocket Casts is a paid app, so it doesn't contain any adverts.I've been using Google podcast and Spotify.

I prefer Google podcast though. It's very basic, which I like. I found other podcast apps just too cluttered or full of ads.

I also tried Google podcast, but it was too much a PITA to find and subscribe to podcasts I like.
Thanks for the tip. I'll give Spotify a try for podcasts.Give Spotify a try. You can download the podcasts.
I used to use the Sony Podcast app but they discontinued it. It was great. Simple to use and had all the features you need.
I also ran into the issue of finding things on Google Podcast which is why I stopped using it. Popular podcasts which you can find on any other podcast app I couldn't find it there. Very weird. Maybe they're going to discontinue it or merge it with their music app.
I can't wait to see your pictures from Paris.So yesterday I went to Paris. It was a sunny day in general but not as warm as it could be.
We're exploring the different popular areas of Paris at the moment. Yesterday we went to the 4th arrondissement and the Marais district within it. The Marais is the Jewish quarter, gay friendly, fashionable, trendy, village area of Paris. Not sure about the village feel.
Now, for those not familiar with France, a lot of things are typically closed on Sundays and lots on Mondays as well. Even in Paris. It's only been recently that shops in tourist areas are being allowed to open on Sunday. There's been a long struggle about Sunday shopping in France. So the Marais is one of the areas in Paris that has shops open. Though I'm sure there's others.
On Sunday mornings you typically find bread shops and some small grocery stores open for half a day or depending where you are in France possibly longer. Cafes and restaurants are open on Sundays as well as cinemas. Also you'll find markets open on Sunday mornings as well, if there is a market on.
The Marais district is nice. I took some pics which I'll post soon. It's a nice area in general. Lots of shops, restaurants and so on. One of the big things people go there for is the Jewish food and most specifically, falafel. There's an on going argument in who has the best falafel in Paris. This one place lays claim to it and I've yet to try it. We plan to soon.
So we went to the Marais for lunch, to another Jewish restaurant that does stuffed pita but it unfortunately didn't turn out to be that great. We got recommended the place from an acquaintance who is also a tour guide.
We went to the Picasso Museum, a boutique eclair place and the Swedish Institute and oddly, a bread festival which we stumbled upon. Along with just simply wandering around. Also due to where our train lets us off, we went by Notre Dame. We catch a train which is a short drive nearby and takes us into the heart of Paris in 45 minutes.
So was a great day with some slight disappointment. We have a lot more to explore. Paris has 20 arrondissements. They start off in the centre and wind their way around like a snail shape going in a clockwise direction. I live in Ile de France, which some people consider Paris, but to most, Paris is the 20 arrondissements, especially to those who live there. However, like New York, London, Toronto, etc. Paris is getting bigger if you include the surrounding suburbs. If you only think of the 20 arrondissements then it's a fairly small place with a high density of people.
I can't wait to see your pictures from Paris.
How cool was the temperature? It has been chilly here for the past several days.
