I was so bummed when they ended the Heavyweight podcast and made it a Spotify exclusive. It was one of the very few shows I would have conversations with people about the day after it dropped.

+100 to Heavyweight, it's my favorite podcast. Each one is like a little gem.

More tech related, and excellent podcasts:

Offline, a new-ish podcast from Crooked (the Pod Save America guys). It has a very anti silicon valley agenda that is sometimes annoying but there are some excellent interviews there.

Hard Fork, a tech news podcast from NYT, that gives a nice weekly roundup and some deeper dives on the week's drama in tech, in a mostly funny manner.

Can you give a link to "Heavyweight"? I searched for it in my podcast app but there are loads of results - I'm not sure which one you're talking about

I did the same, looks like it is Spotify only? https://gimletmedia.com/shows/heavyweight/episodes#show-tab-...

Assuming that is the show they are talking about.

God, I hate these walled gardens

It's exclusive to Spotify, sadly (didn't use to be) https://open.spotify.com/show/5c26B28vZMN8PG0Nppmn5G

Yeah, Spotify only nowadays. I don't have a subscription, though, so you can still listen to it for free.
