# [The ATA Team on Podcasts: Monthly Roundup](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/the-ata-team-on-podcasts-monthly-roundup)

 Written by [ATA Team](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/author/ata-team) | April 28, 2020

During the month of April, the ATA team shared our favorite podcasts and what makes us keep coming back for each subsequent episode. The results, as usually, varied widely across topics and creative styles, but we seemed to agree on one thing: if the subject matter was relevant to us and presented in an effective way, we were much more likely to get hooked. Here's what the ATA Team had to say during Podcast Month on the blog.

[Morgan](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/author/morgan-loughner) discussed [Dax Shepard's *Armchair Expert* podcast](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/the-expert-of-armchair) and how the show gets to the core of its guests and their stories.

[Ivy](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/author/ivy-decker) shared the [*What a Time to Be Alive* podcast](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/a-podcast-for-the-news-you-didnt-hear-this-week), a weekly comedy wrap-up of all of the news stories that didn't necessarily make the front page, hosted by comedians with a genuine sense of rapport.

[Jackson](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/author/jackson-richardson) explained the [KEXP podcast](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/two-peas-in-a-podcast) and how the radio show's series has come to play a large part in promoting indie and alternative artists in today's music scene.

[Carter](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/author/carter-hartong) brought up the [*Dissect* podcast](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/dissect-podcast-and-the-rewards-of-long-form-analysis), another music-based show, but in this Spotify Original Podcast, the host analyzes full albums at length to give the audience a better understanding of what some of today's top artists are trying to say.

Finally, [Elyse](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/author/elyse-ohryn) told us about the [*Lore* podcast](https://blog.anthonythomas.com/ata-blog/lore-a-haunting-podcast-that-will-keep-you-on-edge), a show full of haunting tales of the unknown and uncanny, presented in a well-researched and historical manner.
