Informative and just plain good radio
The two co-hosts have chemistry and the show is also well edited. It wouldn't surprise me if somebody on the team has radio experience. The show sounds like a bubbly chat ar the coffee machine between two senior engineers. On the technical side it definitely leans toward Ruby on Rails subjects. It doesn't dive deep into any particular topic, so I in that sense can't say I've "learned" anything from it. It's a good way to stay aware of current software trends. It's where I first heard about Tailwind CSS or that Cypress tests help you write more accessible websites. I often leave an episode with the thought, "Oh, that sounds cool. Let me check this out." From the topics covered it sounds like the hosts are in their 30s. They're drifting away from technical questions and more toward project management and leadership. For example "How do we mentor junior devs in a remote office?" or "How do I balance my time between managing and building?" One final kudos: so many people talk a big game about accessibility. They walk the walk. Each episode has a full transcript.Read full review »

I started listening from the beginning about a 1-2 weeks ago and am not only on episode 65 now but have also caught the most recent episodes. The discussion, observations and diversity of tech thinkers on the different episodes is inspirational and educational.
