Here are a few questions to get the discussion started:
• Which podcasts do you never miss an episode of? • What makes them stand out to you? • Are there any hidden gems or lesser-known podcasts you’d recommend? • Any specific episodes that you found particularly insightful or entertaining?
Thanks
Now it is monthly, but if you are new to it, you will have much to listen every week for 2 years before you catch up with the latest story...
* Upgrade
* MacBreak Weekly
* Budget Nerds
* Downstream
* Hackaday Podcast
* The Incomparable
* The Cory Doctorow podcast
* The Open Hardware Manufacturing podcast
* The 3028
Beyond those, I have two skies that have completed their runs but I keep in my app. The first is Jason Snell’s “20 Macs for 2020”. If you had any love for Apple back in the day, it’s a fun listen. The second is “Binge Mode Harry Potter” which is an incredible deconstruction of the Harry Potter Books and Films. Though It is not something you can listen to with kids in the car.

I've been listening to Security Now since forever and am a happy owner of SpinRite, and I have picked up everything else the past few months, more to 'monitor' what's going on in the US (I also watch Colbert, Kimmel, Meyers, Daily Show)(so I can get 'both sides' of the political spectrum).
A light-hearted take on the very latest big ticket items in AI, I like that they just don't shy away from any related topic no matter how crude. It is often in the top 50 tech podcasts of the week [1].

It's the only podcast where every episode is relevant, and that I've consistently listened to for years (as a bootstrapped founder myself).
Yea, I am web developer who can’t get enough, and heavily like catchy intros
Any solutions?
