These Top 5 POC-Hosted Podcasts Honor Female Empowerment

LOS ANGELES, March 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Never has there been a greater cry for content than this past year. Isolated from relationships, hobbies, and travel, people are eager for a sense of connection and community. Perhaps that's why the podcast industry continues to see such steady growth. There are more than 1,750,000 podcasts in the world and over 43 million episodes. According to podcasthosting.org, 49 percent of listeners are women while few shows have recognized the need for empowering content, diverse hosts, and female narratives. In honor of International Women's Day, Evoke Media rounded up some of the best female empowerment podcasts with at least one POC host.
