“In October I decided I would listen to every episode of this podcast and just this week (December) finally caught up. It was really interesting seeing the discussions move from Backbone, Knockout, Angular.js, and Ember to mostly React essentially overnight in 2015. It was also interesting to listen to predictions about how es6 would be adopted and how some people correctly predicted that this would lead to build systems and JavaScript becoming a compilation target. Also it was interesting to me that the web component spec was discussed in 2012 and in almost 2019 it had yet to see wide adoption.
I really love the personal touch this podcast, with things like AJ ONeils reoccurring intro gag, the bacon convention, all of the board games, and the picks section. It’s also nice to see a lot of less popular libraries and frameworks covered rather than just the same old stuff. The breadth of topics leads to a large variety of things to add to the “maybe ill check that out” list. Also most importantly all of the people in the panel seem to be really sincere and that matters.
I’ll definitely continue listening to this podcast and would definitely recommend it to anyone’s interested in what’s going on in JavaScript.”
