En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spÊndende podcasts. Podimo formÄr virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svÊre emner. At der sÄ ogsÄ er lydbÞger oveni til en billig pris, gÞr at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kĂŠmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbĂžger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet sĂ„ udelukkende pga DĂ„rligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundvÊrlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengÞringen og i det hele taget, nÄr man trÊnger til lidt adspredelse.
