Syntax – Tasty Web Development Treats

Yes, this one is for all you web developers and tinkerers, and I know there’s plenty of you that subscribe to this newsletter. Syntax is a fantastic deep dive into a wide variety of web development topics including JavaScript frameworks, CSS, and more. If you’re a part of this world, don’t miss out on this podcast run by two full-stack developers.

The Brilliant Idiots

Laughter is good medicine. But we can’t forget the times that we live in. So it’s good to sometimes look at the day’s issues through the lens of mockery and satire. Idiotic, smart, hysterical, and almost always funny, the Brilliant Idiots podcast is hosted by Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz.

FI After 40

The “FIRE” movement (Financial Independence, Retire Early) and general concepts around Financial Independence continue to gain steam. As more workers around the world are less and less able to rely on having a steady income for long periods of time, the need to invest better, and have other streams of income has become more important, not just for thriving, but for financial survival as well! This podcast is all about the FIRE movement and an exploration of how people are turning their financial lives around even after the ripe old age of 40. (Don’t worry I’m older than that as well).

Front Porch Swingers

Swingers. They’re more common than you think. There’s probably a bunch of them living in your neighbourhood. And while not everyone agrees or morally approves of this lifestyle, it’s becoming increasingly common in today’s culture. This 100 episodes strong podcast follows the lives of a couple that just happen to be happily swinging. They talk about their encounters, swinging, hotwifing, BDSM and more.

How Did This Get Played?

Some video games should have never been made. And yet, they were played and enacted plenty of suffering on gamers hoping for just a bit of entertainment. Hosts Heather Anne Campbell and Nick Wiger love video games, but perhaps what they love even more is skewering some of the worst and weirdest video games ever made. A light and entertaining listen!
