How To Find And Integrate Hot Tub Playlists And Podcasts Into Your Soaks

Relaxing in your hot tub and listening to your favorite music or podcast is a wonderful experience for when you want a bit of sound to soothe the soul while the warm spa water eases your body tension. Not too long ago, listening to music while enjoying a soak meant climbing out of your spa, drying off, and heading inside your home to turn on your sound system. When you wanted to hear a different song or change the station, you’d have repeat that process.

Not anymore.

Today’s high-quality spas include speakers integrated into the bar top and, through the magic of spa-integrated Bluetooth^® technology, allow you access your favorite hot tub playlist and hot tub podcast directly from your phone or other mobile device.

FIND THE PERFECT HOT TUB PLAYLISTS AND PODCASTS FOR YOUR LIFESTYLE

When it comes to finding great hot tub music genres, you already know your favorite songs and artists. But did you know that a selection of hot tub playlists to suit different tastes are offered on several music apps?

Discovering your hot tub relaxation soundtrack is easy. Apple’s iTunes store features millions of songs and podcasts—literally. iTunes comes installed on Apple devices and can be downloaded for use on PCs and Android devices. Android users and others may prefer to use Spotify and Soundcloud, or simply search Google to find songs and podcasts available across devices. If you can’t find something you like, create your own playlist. It’s simple: For Spotify, create an account, go into your library, create a playlist, and then search for the songs you’d like to add.

Athletes who use their hot tubs for hydrotherapy before or after a workout might enjoy a range of music—everything from cheerful pop hits to hardcore speed metal. Hot-tubbers looking for stress relief after a hard day at work may prefer something a little more relaxing, such as instrumentals or arias of classic operas. On days you want to improve family connections, you might choose a soundtrack of soothing classics that includes ol’ blue eyes himself, Frank Sinatra.

Podcast preferences are a matter of personal taste, too, and the choices are endless. Intellectuals might choose to engage their minds with the weekly This American Life podcast or The Moth Radio Hour while soaking. Everyday gourmets may prefer to pick up some recipes and cooking tips from Gastropod. Fans of both true crime and fine vintages might want to explore the Wine & Crime Podcast.

Whatever your listening pleasure, the key to enjoying music and podcasts with your daily soaks is choosing a spa that easily integrates with your devices.

THE BEST SPAS FOR PLAYLIST AND PODCAST LISTENING

Spa-integrated speakers are offered by a number of hot tub manufacturers. When you opt for a music-ready model from the Highlife^® Collection, the Limelight^® Collection, or the Hot Spot^® Collection from Hot Spring^®, for example, you get built-in factory speakers. A music-ready spa from Hot Spring can be equipped with an optional wireless audio system that allows for Bluetooth^® connectivity.

On Highlife NXT Collection models, the touchscreen spa control panel is waterproof and detachable, allowing for a great deal of flexibility. You can change your listening tracks and more, including the spa temperature and jet setting, remotely—without ever leaving the spa. A Bluetooth^® wireless spa audio system is very easy to set up and pair with your device.
