I love this podcast. I have been looking for a dev podcast that isn't just for beginners. I started in 2020 and am now ready to find a new mid-level position. These tips are great for growing in the field. Love that they are POC and their guests are diverse, as I can choose what fits my brain. I'm shocked that more people aren't listening but I guess I'll keep the gems for myself! Wish I could give back to you guys. I hope to help someone else in this way someday too.
I have been looking for a podcast for years regarding coding and nothing ever clicked. Once I heard these guys do tips a senior dev does I was hooked.
I don’t want to listen to some explain line by line how to code. I want to hear how developers solved problems and grew into new roles.
I’m mostly a Python dev, but this podcast is awesome info and great for all devs, especially useful talk on networking, which is a tough thing for many people.
Great content always!
I’ve been following Leon and Danny individually for a couple years. When they joined forces I probably screamed. They both provide their perspectives on huge talking points in tech, and almost always give you a list of actionable items to get that needle moving. Definitely worth following and binge listening!

This show centers on practical software development insights, career navigation, and industry shifts, delivered through data-backed analysis and real-world scenarios. From recruiting tactics and interview strategies to AI-powered tool implications, episodes often pair hands-on guidance with strategic context, making it helpful for engineers at mid to senior levels looking to accelerate growth, land better roles, or sponsor/advertise to a highly technical audience. A standout angle is the hosts' mix of practical tactics, candid career coaching, and timely takes on open source, AI, and hiring trends, which tends to attract listeners who want actionable steps you can apply immediately rather than general theory.
