Without doubt Darknet Diaries, it should be a mandatory listen for anyone touching computers. It is a crash course on building secure systems by learning from the failures of others. I highly recommend starting from episode #1 because they are almost all great and episodes often reference past topics. https://darknetdiaries.com

I like Darknet Diaries, but I feel it is geared towards techies and not engineers.

The concepts are high level, the details are vague and the stories take a lot of shortcuts to make the podcast accessible to more people.

For UX and Web Design, I highly recommend The Boagworld UX Show, although it is over now but it has a huge repository of over 15 years, with transcripts. It's a timeless relic.

I wonder if there is a gap in the audio market for low-level podcasts aimed at building technical "muscle memory". Example: repeated syntax step-throughs in a rote/kata style, like foreign language courses. I've never seen anything like that and have often wondered if it could work without the visual accompaniment.

I've actually found it quite an active/engaging experience to take in some normal code-presenting videos/screencasts as audio-only (i.e. earphones in, phone in pocket), because you build up in your minds eye the code they're talking about.
