I've stopped listening for probably a year now. But other than some already mentioned here I'd go with:

- Soft Skills Engineering: very humorous and light take on the people side of SWE

- StaffEng: interviews with engineers with staff+ roles

- Lenny's: if you are into product, growth and startups in general

It was already mentioned by a sibling comment, but podcasts from the Changelog are also very good.

Aside: Richard seems impossibly nice— like, if Mr Rogers was a programmer, he’d be the creator of Roc.

None. Most are filled with too many pointless comments, side commentary, tangents, and can't show detail over audio.

I can't listen to them anywhere I want. I have to pause and rewind constantly to catch detail. I can't underline something significant or save it for later.

It’s more CS education and learning focused, but my friend Oz and I have been doing the CS Primer Show for the last year. Had a brief hiatus for more family time, but we’ll be back in August with more chats and whatnot about Bell Labs and other computer science fun.
