Mentors on the MicBecoming... Showrunner of Friends and Grace & Frankie Marta Kauffman

Marta Kauffman, showrunner and co-creator of the incredible shows Friends and Grace and Frankie, discusses her transition from theater to television, the misunderstanding that led to the creation of Grace and Frankie, and more. 

SmartLessJulia Louis-DreyfusIf you haven't listened to the comedic gold that is Smartless: run, don't walk. Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, and Sean Hayes banter and joke throughout the interviews and the ads are just as enjoyable. Julia Louis-Dreyfus really shines in this episode, from her funny audition story to her inspirations.

Awards ChatterHalle Berry — 'Bruised' [LIVE]

Host and creator Scott Feinberg is the "OG" of television and film interviews, according to EarBuds curator Michelle Simone Miller. Every interview in this show is thorough, well-researched, humorous, poignant, and teaches so much about each guest. This episode with the incandescent Halle Berry goes from her beginnings, to auditions, to movies, to life post-Oscar.

Feel The Good with ShawlGia PeppersIf you are looking for a breath of fresh air in an interview, Shawlini Manjunath-Holbrook's Feel the Good is for you. She starts every episode with a moment of gratitude and proceeds to interview the most interesting people. Gia Peppers is an incredible on-air talent, entertainment journalist, and podcaster.

ZimExcellenceSibongile Mlambo: Talent Beyond Borders (1)Each week, host Vongai Shava interviews incredible Zimbabwean trailblazers around the world. EarBuds curator Michelle Simone Miller learns so much from Vongai's insightful conversations and particularly loved the two-part interview with Sibongile Mlambo, a Zimbabwean actress and the face of one of Nivea's biggest African campaigns.

🌈We're Having Gay Sex: Not only is this podcast entertaining, sex-positive, and relatable, but it’s informative and affirming for members of the queer community. 💖Why Won't You Date Me? with Nicole Byer: Nicole Byer is so lovable, entertaining, and truly a one-of-a-kind gem. Her take on the modern dating world is refreshing, relatable, and raunchy.
