Forgive me, but what has "This Developer's Life", and "The Ruby Show" got to do with "hacking" exactly?

#3299% Invisible is in the same category of general nerdy podcasts like Radiolab (i.e. not just meant for programmers). I think this show specifically would be interesting to hackers, on manufactured sounds for digital interfaces, but there's a lot of good stuff in the archives. http://99percentinvisible.org/post/3230995265/episode-15-the...
Absolutely agree on 99% Invisible. Roman Mars does a fantastic job and episodes are really well produced. If you're interested on design, this is the show to listen. Episodes are short, 5-15mins.
I actually discovered this during the Christmas break and listened all the episodes in few days. Now it's the highlight of my week.

#33Not specifically "hackery" but Buzz Out Loud is a pretty fantastic tech podcast;

#36ThisWeekInStartups.com Jason's show and network is what gave me my entrepreneurial spark a year ago. Great guests and great content. He does need to move the show to SF though. You can only interview LA founders for so long. I've really enjoyed the shows the past few weeks @ CNet and Waze because he has interviewed some of the most prominent tech startups.
I enjoy that he didn't start in SF and am sad he's considering moving the show there.
It's great to discover entrepreneurs beyond the usual suspects in the usual ecosystems. There's more to success in this industry than the valley.

#37The Morning Stream (http://frogpants.com/tms) is a particularly good podcast, although the subject matter does not usually contain any programming or indeed tech related material. The banter, and chemistry between the show's co-hosts, and the interesting assortment of trivia that is often on stock brightens my mornings, and the time that I spend on drudge work. I usually listen to silence, or music with no lyrics, mostly jazz and electronica when I have to concentrate on the task at hand. Podcasts are a huge distraction vector for me personally, or at least were till I banned them from my assigned work hours. Nonetheless `The Morning Stream' is highly recommended.

#38Landing Page Optimization by Tim Ash http://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/landing-page-optimization...
Thou not as frequently updated lately, it's extremely informative podcast on landing pages, data analysis and consumer behavior in relation to web pages.

#39Thanks for the list. A friend recently did one as well, which was a bit more general, though has some good tips.

#40More related to startups than hackers (but so is Mixergy which is on the list), This Week in Startups (or TWiST), is very entertaining!
