Earlier quoted context omitted.

I don't see how this would be that useful. If you are learning a foreign language, you already know what you want to say, but not how to say it in the new language. Syntax doesn't really matter after programming for more than a year, as the important part is how to solve a problem, and not how to write down that solution.

True, but stumbling over even basic idioms and syntax can be quite frustrating if you have not used them enough to absorb them, especially for those like me with dodgy memory retention.

That would be best solved by writing more code and practicing. A lot of syntax is just hard to convey over audio.

Nobody has mentioned Acquired yet?

I think they do a great job discussing the history and business decision in tech that have led to where we are today.

It's not all tech focused, but even the handful of episodes that aren't such as the Berkshire Hathaway one are tangentially related and great.

although it is specific to scala, chris kipp's tooling podcast is fascinating. there is much to learn about tooling in general and if you're a scala developer, the technical insight is invaluable.
