Start 2018 with these six religion podcasts

(RNS) — True crime and self-help podcasts are all the rage. But even avid listeners might not know about a trove of podcasts aimed at those interested in religion.

If your resolution this year is to learn more about the experiences of people of faith around America — or even to hear from people who have disavowed the traditions in which they were raised — here are six podcasts aimed at the spiritually curious.

See Something, Say Something

Every week, over a cup of chai, BuzzFeed writer Ahmed Ali Akbar sits down with comedians, politicians, scholars, reporters and others to discuss what’s on the minds of Muslims in America. When BuzzFeed launched “See Something, Say Something” in 2016 — the name is a reference to the post-9/11 security-driven culture that critics say endangers innocent Muslims and people of color — The New York Times named the podcast one of the year’s best.
