Coding Blocks

Far and away, this is the best podcast for people who build software. The pace and discussion is the same as talking and brainstorming with your colleagues at work. This podcast is about the practice of software, with a healthy dose of theory, but heavy focus on to use the latest tech stacks. It is how I stay up to date and relevant in the industry. Kudos for work on ‘data intensive systems’, best book out there, without this podcast, I wouldn’t have read it.

I’ve been listening to Coding Blocks since I started my programming journey roughly 5 years ago and I’ve been enjoying it ever since. I have to say, my favorite set of episodes you did were about Uncle Bob’s Clean Code, a book near and dear to my (and most any programmer’s) heart. The show has taught me tons of stuff I would never have otherwise known about and enriched my understanding of topics I was more familiar with. Beyond the technical, my favorite aspect of the show is how approachable and genuine it is. There’s no ego, no judgment, and no competition to be “better” or “smarter” than anyone else. It feels like having a fun (and funny) conversation with your best friends. Anyway, just wanted to say that y’all are great and this podcast is great. I’m not sure what my username is on here, but whatever it is, I look forward to hearing Outlaw attempt to pronounce it.

Wish I could this review ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This podcast is a must-listen for software developers. With a perfect mix of insightful discussions and practical tips, I've learned a wide variety of topics that I wouldn't have otherwise. Their lively banter and genuine enthusiasm for tech discussions make each episode both engaging and informative. Highly recommended!

I learn something EVERY time I listen to this podcast and usually laugh at least once. So all in all it’s a yes for me dawg.

The show has good concepts but needs to be more focused. I've listened for a year, but the excessive, unrelated chatter stops me. The show could be shortened to 40-60 minutes from its current two-hour duration. Less is more!
