Still Looking for Podcasts

In my ongoing quest to cut the XM cord, I need to know which podcasts will fulfill my need for news about tv, movies, music, and the general pop culture stuff I’ll perish without knowing.

I subscribe to the Crossroads podcast and the Answer B!tch podcast. What else do I need to subscribe to?

Desperation Is the World's Worst Cologne

I’ve told you all about my love-hate relationship with my XM subscription since the merger with Sirius. I lost my favorite channel–E! Entertinment Radio. It was replaced with Cosmo Radio, which I find to be a poor substitute. Other than the hourly list of 7 Things You Need to Know Before You Go and the Naughty News on Get in Bed each evening, there is little coverage of entertainment. I miss my entertainment news.

Anyway, as I have listened to more of the shows on Cosmo, I realized that many of the girls sound ridiculously marriage-hungry. Diana of Cosmolicious and Taylor of Wake Up are the prime offenders in this quest for the holy grail of an engagement ring. I find their near-constant soliloquizing on their need to be engaged annoying and impossible to relate to.

At first, I thought it must just be their age. They are in the their mid-20s, and I’m not that age anymore. I’m also nearly three years married, so I’m certainly not beating the streets looking for would-be suitors–Mr. Pop Culture Curmudgeon really frowns on that.

But I thought back on my 20s, and I was never the crazy “marry me” girl. I dated Mr. PCC for eight years before we got married, from the time I was 25. I was okay with waiting until we were both ready. The long period of dating never said to me that he didn’t think I was the one, and I hope he never thought I was waiting to find someone better.

Am I weird? Should I have been a diamond-hungry girl in my 20s? Or are those girls as annoying as I find them to be?

(BTW, my guess is that Taylor comes back from her Paris trip wearing a diamond ring.)

Edited to add: Yeah. It happened. Taylor got engaged in Paris. They replayed the engagement story Friday and over the weekend.
