Who am I?

I am a Podcaster and theatre maker. My pod, Fine Beats and Cheeses, is hosted by my twin sister Leslie Gray Streeter and me, and we talk to guests who bring us a cheesy guilty pleasure that they don't feel guilty about at all. We want to make people laugh, feel good, and think. It's what my life is about. I produce and make theatre for young audiences that is based in kindness. The world can be heavy. I love things that make feel better. It's my life's work, to make the world better and to encourage kindness and happiness and that's why this list.

What is my podcast playlist about?

It's all shows that try to add positivity and lightness to the world and I am here for it. It's what we need.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. The Antidote

Why this podcast?

It is about highlighting things that make this hard world better. It's like therapy. The hosts are honest and open and I feel like I am listening to friends.

The world is a dumpster fire. Work wives, best friends, and TV writers/producers Amy Aniobi and Grace Edwards want to help. In response to the madness in the news, they share the culture that lights them up and activities that bring them joy, plus strategies they use to cope with these wild times. They also invite inspiring special guests to share their own self-care strategies. And since Grace and Amy are comedy writers, they bring a level of casual, edgy fun to it all. During these trying times we all need a show that focuses on joy. This is The Antidote.

4. How Did We Get Weird with Vanessa Bayer and Jonah Bayer

Why this podcast?

It is hilarious and nostalgic and sweet, and the sibling hosts take a look at the things they loved as kids. It's wonderful.

Before sibling duo Vanessa Bayer and Jonah Bayer took the comedy, music and general world by storm, they were just some lil weirdo kids. Joined by exciting guests who also started out this way, they reminisce about everything from toys to trends on How Did We Get Weird? Unless you’re a monster, you’ll want to listen to this nostalgia-filled, hilarious and surprisingly sweet podcast where they discuss how those formative years that shaped them into who they are today.
