How I built this. Stories made me admire products a lot more.

Is there any particular episode you think would be worth starting from?

One I particularly liked was "Relationships 2.0: What Makes Relationships Thrive" from end of November last year.

The quality per episode is consistently high in my opinion, so any title that catches your eye is worth a listen.

Event Horizon by John Michael Godier [1], just very interesting discussions about space, SETI and other stuff.

The episode with Isaac Arthur [2] is a good place to start.

Acquired Podcast - "stories of well-known business and the playbooks that built them". Awesome podcast if you enjoy learning about the intersection of tech + business.

Startups For the Rest of Us - far on the other side of business + tech spectrum in the indie hacker space. Find it lends a really nice counterpoint to Acquired.

How I Built This - well-known and fantastic interviewer Guy Raz interviews company founders about their stories. Definitely has more a consumer than tech bent.

Planet Money - because it's awesome.
