Ask HN: What's your favorite technical Podcast?

7 points by alexjray 7y ago ↗ HN

I'm looking for some truly technical podcasts from experts in the field. The majority of technical podcasts that I've found are centered around "tech" in general rather than the specific domains.

What deep technical podcasts have you found?

Some examples: AI, security, biotech, etc...

Data Skeptic : Especially all the episodes of Kyle explaining a concept to Linda. I've learned lots of great concepts from those episodes. https://dataskeptic.com/

CoRecursive : Long form interviews around a particular topic per episode, with a focus on programming languages and functional programming. This is my podcast. http://corecursive.com

Omega Tau is a German science and engineering interview-style podcast with English language episodes, biased towards aviation but with a very wide range of topics. The last five episodes have included interviews on processor design, gravity energy storage, piloting the Apache attack helicopter, the BepiColombo mission to mercury, and CRISPR gene editing.

It strikes a great balance of technical detail and interesting conversation. It is far more in-depth than any other general science podcasts I've come across, and doesn't spend too much time explaining the basics to the audience.
