SyntaxFM Podcast

This podcast, hosted by Scott Tolinski and Wes Bos, is a real treat. They're very charismatic and make the podcast entertaining while also providing extremely useful information.

Scott and Wes share web development tools and techniques in each episode, and they frequently interview some of the industry's top web developers.

There have been over 300 episodes of the podcast so far, so there's plenty to delve into here. It's something that both new and experienced developers should give a listen to.

This is a must-have for all JavaScript fans out there!

Each week, a rotating panel of JavaScript experts discusses new libraries, emerging best practices, and other developments affecting developers.

The Code Newbie Podcast

As the name suggests, this podcast is one of the best if you're new to coding and technology. It covers all of the fundamentals you'll need to get started in a straightforward manner. This includes guides on a wide range of tech fundamentals, giving it a very broad scope. It's beneficial for newcomers because they can become acquainted with all of the components of their craft and determine what they need to do to advance.

In addition, it tells the stories of developers and programmers who are well-known in their fields and how they rose through the ranks. Having those stories is extremely beneficial because you can learn what worked and what didn't from their experiences.

Masters of Scale

This podcast is not as technical as the others, but it is well worth listening to.

Hosted by LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, the podcast looks at how people started their own businesses in the tech industry and how they made it work. He interviews founders and executives from around the world about their experiences and what they did to achieve success.

It's something you'll get a lot out of as a developer, as each episode they attempt to prove or disprove popular business theories. Furthermore, as a Tech Leader, they investigate potentially interesting topics such as increasing the effectiveness of remote working, creative hiring strategies, mindset, and company branding.
