As a podcaster, I am also a fan. I listen to numerous shows and have for many years. Therefore it makes sense to offer an episode of podcast recommendations. There is an enormous number of options available, but maybe this episode will help you find some good ones and sort through the noise.
The Tip of The Iceberg
The recommendations are by no means a complete list. The options available are as broad as the interests you and your friends and family may have. I recommend you browse through Apple Podcasts a time or two every year. You will be able to find some excellent shows to match your latest interests. In particular, you might find some shows that cover your most recent technical focus and new things on the horizon.
How I Chose These Podcast Recommendations
These shows are on my regular listening list. I use the Overcast app with speeds often set at 1.25 times standard rate. This setting allows me to consume a lot of content and more or less keep up with the latest episodes. I do listen to a few more shows than those listed. Thus, I have plenty of content each week to cover drive time and also have it run in the background when I work. Even so, I still have a backlog for long car trips, flights, and vacations. These have allowed me to reduce my amount of reading to keep up with life and world events. I hope you find them helpful in your pursuit of becoming a better developer.
