Technical Programming/Science Podcasts?


Hey HN!

I would like to get into podcasts, and would be super interested in ones themed around programming and science.

However, everytime I do manage to find a podcast (on python or physics etc.) They always tend to be for the layman. I'd love a podcast for instance about python where each podcast was about very advanced programming topics or maybe highlighting a different library each podcast and discussing quirks and best practices. I just can't seem the find anything suitably technical, which makes sense since the medium isnt exactly great for it, but I'm sure there is some out there and I bet you guys know about them.

Feel free to plug your own technical/science podcast here, I'd love to listen!

I just discovered Python Bytes. Every episode is a survey of a few interesting libraries or techniques. It’s a casual listen for more experienced python folks. I’ve been doing python a long time and they almost always mention a library or topic I am not up to speed with.

A science podcast you can try is Physics Frontiers. It gets pretty technical.

Haven’t seen any podcasts like that before. Maybe you can start one.

Go Time is a great podcast if you are in to Golang

Command Line Heroes comes to mind.
