I am a 31 year old female. I listen to podcasts with my headphones often. Is listening to podcasts several hours a day bad for your ears?

Only if the volume is over 85 dB. Keep the volume down to protect your hearing.    Angela R. Sieh Ceretto, M.A., CCC-A, FAAA Audiologist Pinnacle Audiology, LLC 6809 S. Minnesota Ave., Suite 101 605-306-4481  
As far as we know right now, it can be if the volume is above 85 dB.
