The Inforium (formerly College Info Geek)

Before Thomas Frank became one of the biggest productivity creators on YouTube, he and Martin Boehme spent nearly a decade running the College Info Geek Podcast, which eventually became The Inforium. Over 334 episodes, they covered study tips, personal finance, productivity systems, and the kinds of life skills that school never teaches — all in a conversational format that felt like hanging out with two smart friends rather than attending a lecture. Thomas brought the research-backed strategies and Martin kept things grounded and funny. Topics ranged from deep work and focus techniques to paying off student loans and building habits that stick. The show holds a 4.8-star rating from 857 reviews, making it one of the most highly rated student-adjacent podcasts in existence. It wrapped in July 2021, but the massive back catalog is still one of the best resources available for students who want to learn how to learn. If you have ever fallen down a Thomas Frank rabbit hole on YouTube and wished you could get more of that energy, 334 episodes are waiting for you. The early College Info Geek episodes are especially useful for anyone currently in school.
