These short 30-minute episodes are perfect to listen to on a busy day. Shane also offers helpful advice to his listeners.

She shares relatable advice and support for her young adult audience through personal stories and topics like anxiety and friendship breakups.

Earle also features some of her best friends and her NFL boyfriend on occasion. In my opinion, she makes her podcast feel like a conversation with a best friend or big sister.

“Hello, beautiful people” is the phrase frequently used by Lexi Hidalgo, the girl that people refer to as “human sunshine” on TikTok. From sunrise vlogs to coffee talks, Hidalgo is the 2024 golden girl with her podcast Moments Podcast.
In each episode of Moments Podcast, Hidalgo highlights the many feelings we as human beings experience in our day-to-day lives. Her positivity creates comfort for her many listeners, making her podcast one of the top trending self-help podcasts on the charts.
Hidalgo emphasizes the importance of finding positivity in the little and big moments in life while inspiring her listeners to do the same. If you follow Hidalgo on social media, you probably know that her Moments Podcast has been around for a while. However, after her recent “revamp,” the podcast has once again gained popularity from its Gen Z audience.
5. Trisha Paytas’ Just Trish
The influencer Trisha Paytas has lived many lives as a reality TV star, singer/songwriter, and podcaster. Her new podcast, Just Trish, has gained popularity among lovers of TikTok drama and influencer scandals. One thing about Paytas is that she will say what she thinks without holding back, causing her to be considered “one of the most controversial online personalities”. Her use of modern Gen Z language and comedy appeals to her younger audience. Just Trish is an easy listen that has gained popularity while the Gen Z drama continues.
