Great list @rosnovsky !
I would extend the list to recommend my two favourites tech podcasts:

  • Soft skills engineering It's super fun to listen, and most of the time, they provide useful recommendations.

Thanks for the list. I've found a couple of new podcasts to listen to.

I would add the following, as well:

  • Independence Mostly focused on Apple app development, but they talk a lot about being an indie software developer in the real world.
  • Command Line Heroes Produced by Red Hat, it runs through a lot of the history of open source software. This season they're focusing on different languages. I've learned a few things about how software got to the state it is that I never knew before.

Just listened to an episode of Command Line Heroes on Changelog (they featured a show about BASIC programming language), such a great production!

Awesome list. :)

I also recommend the dev(up) podcast.
They focus on the non-technical side of being a developer.

Thanks for this list, my podcast list has just grown again :)

Additionally, I'd like to recommend Weekly Dev Tips from Steve Smith. Although he did not publish one the last 4 weeks, he used to give some valuable tips in a short weekly podcast, typically 5-10 minutes.
