Best productive podcasts that you can listen for free.



If you want to listen to podcasts that are free and productive at the same time. Then you are in the right place.

Welcome, today we’ll be discussing the best productive podcasts that are productive and free at the same time and I’ll be also sharing some of the best apps to listen to the podcasts too.

Before kicking this list of podcasts, I would first like to clarify the meaning of podcast for those who are unaware of this term.

What is Podcast?


The podcast is a kind of radio listening that you can listen to anywhere and anytime, unlike radio that you can only listen when your show is on air. In the case of podcast listening, it is all pre-recorded voice that you can listen anytime or more like on-demand.

I actually prefer listening to the podcast, you play it or pause it, rewind it or forward it, or save to your device just like anything you can do with a normal song file because it is more convenient.

The podcast always comes in an episodic form, like series or episode of a topic which the podcast is related to. Thus, it makes the audience more interested in listening to the podcast. And this is the only thing that I personally like about podcasts.

Radio listening is only available on the radio station, but podcasts are available on the internet. Thus, making it more convenient to listen. In a nutshell, it is an advanced or modern form of radio.

Now, let’s start with the

list of most productive podcats that you listen to now for free.


1. How I Built This with Guy Raz (NPR)

Best productive podcasts that you can listen for free.


Guy Raz, is one of my favorite speakers. The way he represents any show is simply flawless while listening to his any podcast you can clearly figure out how passionate he is about his work, how must enthusiast he sounds every-time.


And talking about How I Built This with Guy Raz, this show was started just like any other, the team NPR was not very sure about its success, but soon this podcast started showing growth and increasing audience and ultimately this podcast got popular among the audience.

This podcast talks about some of the most successful entrepreneurs worldwide and how they built their great empires from scratch, doesn’t this sound amazing?. some examples are How Instagram was built by Kevin Systrom, How AIRBNB came into existence by Joe Gebbia and many more like this.

Planet Money is all about Economy right now, what is China up to regarding its economy, what are other countries planning to improve their economy and many more. This all is just a glimpse of what you can learn here. And you can find out some of the most crucial information in regards to the economy around the world.

3. The Mindset Mentor by Rob Dial





This podcast is rated #1 Motivational podcast on iTunes.

Rob Dial is very much inspired by Tony Robbins, Rob Dial totally gives the credit of his success to Tony Robbins all the time. Tony Robbins was introduced to him by his mother at the age of 13, since then he became addicted to self-help, personal growth and mastering the Mindset.

In this podcast, Rob Dial interviews various successful entrepreneurs and how they become so much successful. Not only he interviews famous entrepreneurs but he also publishes podcasts about motivation, how to help yourself, how to keep moving on and many more.

He also conducts webinars you can know more while listening to his podcast.

This podcast is like your daily dose of motivation. Like, whenever you feeling low you can directly play any episode of it. The best thing about this podcast that I like the most is its duration. Rob Dial really publishes short duration podcast, so that you can listen to it while having a run, or while working or at the gym like anywhere.

Like I said before this podcast is like your daily dose of motivation.

5. Sadhguru


Best productive podcasts that you can listen for free.

Jaggi Vasudev (born 3 September 1957), often referred to as simply Sadhguru, is an Indian yogimystic, and author. He founded the Isha Foundation, a non-profit organization that offers Yoga programs around the world.

This is a new podcast but the speaker itself is not, I mean listening to Sadhguru can really make you feel like that you are listening to something genuine. 

The podcast becomes more natural when Sadhguru is actually talking with his audience and giving solutions for their problems in the most simple way possible. A person of this age can really share his experience with a mix of moral and knowledge, that will surely make your life easier.

Sadhguru first started with the local audience, with the growing popularity he became very popular amongst the youth. Then he started his YouTube channel that again became very popular and now with a podcast. 

I really recommend listening to this one too.
