Ask HN: What podcasts are you listening to?
I've recently gotten into podcasts over the past few months and I just finished my binge listening spree of Acquired with Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal.
Was curious to know what podcasts y'all are listening to and why. The Peter Attia Drive
https://peterattiamd.com/podcast/ - The Rest is History has a huge back catalogue and is generally very interesting with good rapport between the hosts. - Dwarkesh Podcast has a smart and charismatic host bringing on some truly excellent tech industry guests (e.g. Jeff Dean, Patrick Collison, 10x IC engineers) - Oxide and Friends is Oxide Computer's 2nd podcast after the brilliant but short On The Metal. This one is more casual but around half the episodes are serious technical deep dives. - Know Your Enemy is seriously the best political podcast you'll find, because it's targeted at people who read books and actually care about understanding politics, not just having some intelligent sounding soundbite for cocktail parties. It's recent episode on Ayn Rand's life and work is excellent and relevant to the tech industry which has its fair share of Randian hero archetypes. - Acquired is great for entertaining history of important companies. The episode on TSMC is a classic, but I also found their episodes on Hermes and LMVH really enjoyable. You just have to watch out for the fact that they're (a) non-technical and can get over their skis covering software/hardware companies, and (b) they're VCs so adopt some often incredibly weird framing on things, for example their approach to discussing the societal impact of weapons companies during the Lockheed Martin episode. I think we have pretty similar taste! I'll have to check out The Rest is History. Recently, I really enjoyed Sarah C. Paine's lectures on Dwarkesh's podcast :) The Big Dig and Scratch & Win
