I can absolutely recommend the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, too.

StartUp by Gimlet on the other hand while entertaining doesn't provide a whole lot of valuable insight in my opinion.

Personally, I'd recommend these podcasts:

- Sales for Nerds: https://www.salesfornerds.io/ Pragmatic sales tips for people with a technical background.

- $100k Freelancing: http://www.100kfreelancing.com/ Advice on how to grow a freelancing or consulting business.

While the following technically aren't about startups or business in general they deal with a lot of - sometimes related - matters and insights that can help with becoming an overall better person:

- The Tim Ferriss Show: https://tim.blog/podcast/ General advice as to how to become better at many things in life, including business.

- 99% Invisible: https://99percentinvisible.org/ Interesting, groundbreaking, sometimes quirky, pieces of design from around the world.

- Design Matters: http://www.debbiemillman.com/designmatters/ Interviews with designers, artists and people from related backgrounds.

I have to contest 7 Habits...its conjecture on top of empty eureka after empty eureka.

Thanks for the Sales for Nerds mention. ;-) Let me know what you'd like to hear about, guests, topics, beverages, etc...
