Startups for the Rest of Us (Rob Walling and Mike Taber, largely targeted at people who are pre-product on SaaS), Tropical MBA (eclectic small/Internet business topics), Boostrapped with Kids (two guys with bootstrapped startups), Bootstrapped.fm (two other guys with bootstrapped startups), and a few others, but those are more than enough to match my coffee/gym time these days.

Quite a few...

Techzing http://techzinglive.com/

No Agenda http://www.noagendashow.com/

TWiT http://twit.tv/ I am selective about it though, Windows Weekly, some of the Floss weekly, some of Security Now and TWiT itself only if Dvorak, Calacanis or Adam Curry are on (sadly 2 of them appear to have been blacklisted).

Sans Podcast https://isc.sans.edu/podcast.html

I used to listen to http://mixergy.com/ quite a lot but Andrew is an animal and I couldn't keep up.

I've been listening to EconTalk with Russ Roberts[1], The KunstlerCast [2] and Poetry Magazine podcast [3] for years. Good stuff. It'll put hair on yer chest.

I like these small business/bootstrapping podcasts: Kalzumeus, Product People, Techzing, Foolish Adventure, Eventual Millionaire.

I also like these speculative fiction podcasts: Escape Pod for scifi, Podcastle for fantasy, and Drabblecast for a little of everything.

The Slate Political Gabfest is by far the best current events podcast I've come across: http://www.slate.com/articles/podcasts/gabfest.html

My favorite comedy podcast is Judge John Hodgman: http://www.maximumfun.org/shows/judge-john-hodgman and I similarly recommend anything else from the Maximum Fun Network: http://www.maximumfun.org/

Accidental Tech Podcast atp.fm In Beta http://5by5.tv/inbeta

  • raelshark 12 years ago

    Unfortunately on yesterday's episode Gina and Kevin announced that next week will be their last In Beta, and someone else is taking over the show. Curious who it'll be, but definitely won't be the same.
