I get enough tech in my daily life, so I look to podcasts to enrich my life in other dimensions and teach me new things. Here are some of my favorites: * Cooking, food, and molecular gastronomy; Cooking Issues: http://www.heritageradionetwork.org/programs/51-Cooking-Issu... * Outdoor adventure; Dirtbag Diaries: http://dirtbagdiaries.com * Music and poetic music breakdown (uniquely well-suited to audio as a medium); S…

If you are looking for sci-fi/fantasy/horror, would definitely recommend the Escapepod (http://escapepod.org/), podcastle (http://podcastle.org/), pseudopod (http://pseudopod.org/) trio. Their webpages also link to some other good fiction podcasts of the same genre. Podcastle's Paper Menagerie (http://escapepod.org/2012/05/17/ep345-the-paper-menagerie/) made me cry.

Invisibilia is new but sure to be a hit: http://www.npr.org/programs/invisibilia/ Also Startup: http://gimletmedia.com/show/startup/ Both dance around our world regularly enough to include them.

Invisibilia already has 10 million plays, so I think your prediction has been realised: http://www.npr.org/about-npr/383255428/npr-s-invisibilia-rea...

## Business

* The Fizzle Show: http://fizzle.co/show This show gets you thinking critically about what you're doing/need to do in your business, and it provides a good laugh, too. That said, it largely focuses on "content" businesses and blogging.

## Development/Marketing/Business

* The Binpress Podcast: http://www.binpress.com/blog/category/podcast/

I host a podcast for the folks at Binpress, where I interview developers who've built businesses on their software. I've interviewed Canonical's [Mark Shuttleworth](http://www.binpress.com/blog/2014/08/26/binpress-podcast-epi...), Zend's [Andi Gutmans](http://www.binpress.com/blog/2014/09/30/binpress-podcast-epi...) and HashiCorp's [Mitchell Hashimoto](http://www.binpress.com/blog/2014/09/09/binpress-podcast-epi...), just to name a few.

## Off Topic

* Better Call Saul Insider Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/better-call-saul-insider...

Kelley Dixon, an editor on the Breaking Bad spinoff Better Call Saul, hosts this podcast with guests including actors, fellow editors and the show's writers.

* Let's Drink About It: http://letsdrinkabout.it/

The co-hosts proceed from the premise that every life event has a perfect cocktail pairing. They've got great guests (often comedians) that chat about what's going on in their lives and, of course, talk about cocktails

Well, I listen to many podcasts already mentioned, but these two also deserve a strong recommendation: * Startups For the Rest of Us - "The podcast that helps developers be awesome at launching software products" - http://www.startupsfortherestofus.com/ One episode per week, like clockwork. Typically ~30 minutes long. Actionable stuff. Whenever I get a new episode of this podcast it instantly goes to top of listening…

+1 for This Developer's Life. I think it's one of the finest tech podcasts.

Still sad that they stopped recording it last year, but for new listeners, it's still worth watching all old episodes.
