Maybe a weird question, but how do you listen to podcasts in the shower? I find the water is loud enough that I can't hear speakers outside the bathroom, and phones or laptop inside. I don't really want to figure out mounting a sound system in my shower...

I have something almost identical to this (except the brand was Bush, probably just a white label). It sounds great & works well, but I stopped using it because the volume controls are hard to adjust precisely. You have to press & hold, and the volume ramps up too quickly. If I was buying another I'd look for something where the volume controls are separate from the forward/back buttons.
It was very good quality in every other respect, though.
Edit: For reference, the one I bought: http://www.bushaustralia.com.au/product/water-resistant-blue...

There's some good waterproof BT speakers, as well as some phones are waterproof enough to come into the shower with you (been doing this with my iphone 7, and just bought a speaker)

I find my iPhone (6s) speaker, when turned all the way up, is loud enough if I aim the speaker to bounce the sound off of a wall opposite to the shower. In my case it's far enough away that it doesn't get hit by any water.
