Great conversational podcast

I listened to the first few episodes when the podcast first debuted, but it fell by the wayside when I started carpooling with somebody who preferred NPR to podcasts.

I've since lost my carpool buddy and gained 3 new voices to listen to as I made my way through the back catalog to present date. This might seem strange for a podcast that tends to be very topical, but there are still lots of great conversations that I'm glad I didn't miss.

The show feels like a group of friends, just talking about tech and wherever that naturally leads - such as the mighty quokka or the geometric architecture of wombats. The hosts all feel very knowledgable and approachable, if I ever find myself in a conference with one of them, I'd love to talk tech!

Thanks for putting on a great podcast, I really enjoy the thoughtful and honest discussions about everything from git branching models to the amount of thought that NPM puts into place around its hiring policies!

Relaxed Web Dev

This podcast feels like you’re hanging out in a cool coffee shop or in someone’s living room, chatting about all things JavaScript and web dev. The conversational tone makes it easy to follow even if you’re not familiar with a particular topic, and the hosts do a great job of being honest about not knowing everything — the result is an inclusive “we’re all still figuring this out” sort of atmosphere that has broad appeal from brand-new coders to the more advanced :)

Good podcast, should say it's about Javascript

From the description I was expecting content that was more conceptual than what I spent my time listening to. There is a great deal of talk about javascript and javascript frameworks, yet no mention of javascript in the description.

I get that the hosts largely work with Javascript, so it makes sense for them to talk about it. I'd recommend this podcast to other people who largely work in Javascript. For others, if you don't mind hearing a lot about javascript you'll probably enjoy it. It's not for me though.
