This is an absolutely terrific podcast. Two other great ones from the Changelog guys:

- Andrew Godwin on Django / Django Channels / Python - https://changelog.com/podcast/229

- Eli Bixby on Tensorflow / Deep Learning -https://changelog.com/podcast/219

Would love to hear other podcasts people enjoy.

Glad you enjoyed those! By the way, we recently added a master feed so you can get all of our shows with just one entry in your podcast app:

Blueprint for Armageddon was also fantastic. Still recent enough that you can download it for free, by the way.

Tim Ferris show is usually a gold mine. #193 - life extension, #106 Scott Adams/Dilbert

Malcolm Gladwell's Revisionist History- Hallelujah episode is great, exploration into different types of innovation/genius

Reply all - #50 The Cathedral, father makes a video game about the death of his son. Very difficult episode to listen specially if you have children.

I keep thinking about starting something like Goodreads just for podcasts...

I've really been enjoying Exponent from Stratechery's Ben Thompson. Great discussions about important things in tech and society.

My ALWAYS playlist in Overcast:

- 99% Invisible - The Changelog * - Dan Carlin's Hardcore History * - EconPop Podcast - Engineers & Coffee - Freakonomics Radio * - The James Altucher Show - The Joe Rogan Experience - The Journal by Kevin Rose - Planet Money * - Radiolab - Reply All * - Revisionist History * - This American Life - The Tim Ferriss Show * - The Way I Heard It with Mike Rowe * - The Winning Agenda

I will delete episodes with uninteresting starts or guests, most notably on Rogan because it's so long-form. I listen to everything on 2x speed with "SmartSpeed" to also eliminate pauses. Threw an asterisk next to those that are the most significant for me. If I were to pick just one, it would be Tim Ferriss.

care sharing your playlist in podcast format?

Hm, what do you mean specifically? Not seeing an export option in Overcast for iOS.

I have to agree. The Changelog is the best general tech podcast out there. Hosts are good, guests are good, audio quality is good (even when the guests are using Apple earbud mics), and their site is super fast.

I was really sad when I ran out of episodes to listen to——now I have to wait a week.

Changelog and FLOSS weekly are the two I listen to occasionally. FLOSS weekly kind of varies and mostly depends on who they have on.

I like Changelog when the hosts have familiarity with the tech in question. Ruby ones are good in that respect. There are recent-ish Sandi Metz and Yukihiro Matsumoto episodes.
