I can’t say I’m a fan of the more recent podcast episodes. It’s gone from discussing interesting technical problems to business to solely interviews with clients who hired ThoughtBot. High quality audio, low quality filler content.

Lindsey is a great host. She keeps the entire conversation moving and ensures that the discussions lead to thought starters for listeners, even when the topics being discussed might be highly technical. You're guaranteed to get something out of every interview. Lindsey's also wickedly funny so you'll never be bored. Give this show a go.

Apple Podcasts5JoshCristUnited States6 years ago - Compelling
One of a small number of podcasts I will listen to immediately when a new episode releases, skipping over others that have been in my feed longer. And one of an even smaller number of podcasts I will frequently listen to a second (or third) time. Really quality content and guests. I'm not in the software development industry but as a small business owner I regularly derive value.
