Where Should We Begin? With Esther Perel: Best Couples Advice Podcast
Featured on Oprah’s “Supersoul 100 list of visionaries and influential leaders”, host Esther Perel is an impressive author and psychotherapist.

In Bed With Nick and Megan: Best Comedy Podcast For Couples
With a combined 138 years spent in Hollywood, Megan Mullally (Will & Grace) and Nick Offerman (Parks & Rec) take podcast listeners directly into their bed... because that’s where every episode is recorded – in their bed.
Nick and Megan get cozy with their famous friends, providing a funny, revealing, and very candid look into their 20-year relationship and life at large.
In some episodes, they’ll even kick the guest out of bed and get extra personal in what some have called the most searing and rawly sexual conversations ever to burn their way through a voice recorder.
If you’re ready, shut off the lights, crawl into bed and get ready for some serious pillow talk.
”Wholesome, quality content that keeps me thoroughly entertained with the weekday topics, as well as educated on certain topics at the same time.”
