Also David Sedaris books are wonderful on tape and my husband and I enjoyed Dad is Fat on tape by Jim Gaffigan on and Yes Please by Amy Poehler. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-things-to-listen-to-on-a-road-trip#post-2176041 Tue, 12 May 2015 16:13:41 +0000 birdofafeather 2176041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unbroken is the best audio book!! I also like this American life, on being, and serial was great too for podcasts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-things-to-listen-to-on-a-road-trip#post-2175961 Tue, 12 May 2015 15:13:43 +0000 Keybee 2175961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@temperancebrennan Thank you for the link, there were some good ideas there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-things-to-listen-to-on-a-road-trip#post-2175768 Tue, 12 May 2015 13:16:48 +0000 turquoisemama 2175768@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Keybee: This American Life is really good too. It is made by the same people who made Serial. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-things-to-listen-to-on-a-road-trip#post-2175762 Tue, 12 May 2015 13:15:47 +0000 TemperanceBrennan 2175762@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Serial is a great suggestion, and you'll want to download all of them.<br /> Maybe look for some non-fiction books too. DH and I will often pause and discuss, which makes the trip go by that much faster like Freakonomics, Super Freakonomics.</p> <p>Check this out too: <a href="http://www.npr.org/2012/06/10/154592659/audiobooks-thatll-make-the-family-road-trip-fly-by" rel="nofollow">http://www.npr.org/2012/06/10/154592659/audiobooks-thatll-make-the-family-road-trip-fly-by</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-things-to-listen-to-on-a-road-trip#post-2175760 Tue, 12 May 2015 13:15:09 +0000 Mrs. Lion 2175760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Keybee: I listened to serial in two days!!

They aren't my type of book for my own pleasure reading, but somehow in the car I get into them, too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/suggestions-for-things-to-listen-to-on-a-road-trip#post-2175395 Tue, 12 May 2015 10:05:48 +0000 Keybee 2175395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've got a 12 hour road trip coming up (there and back, 24 + hours total) and we need some entertainment! It's just DH and I, we like to listen to books on tape, but I don't know of any we would both enjoy. </p> <p>Things we have liked in the past are the Harry Potter books on tape and comedian CD's. The car has XM, but my subscription lapsed and we don't use it enough to renew. </p> <p>Suggestions? </p>
