- Seldon Crisis: I know the host Joel personally, and he's such a great guy. The embodiment of software professionals being creatives.
- Volts by David Roberts: Interesting by itself, but makes me less pessimistic about the climate crisis. He talks to a lot of fascinating entrepreneurs, usually working with "hardware", which as a software engineer always feels like magic to me.
- 13 Minutes to the Moon: Blew me away, and it's relatively quick listen. It's a detailed retelling of the moon landing with original audio.
- Dolly Parton's America: Also a limited series. Goes into why Dolly Parton is such a cultural icon. Learned a lot about the US.
