Subject: Ruby Podcasts

I listen to The Ruby Show <http://rubyshow.com/> and Ruby5<http://ruby5.envylabs.com/>.

The Ruby Show is well produced and has good discussion. Ruby5, though a
good source of news, has obviously scripted conversation and banter.

Yesterday, Amos suggested Ruby Rogues <http://rubyrogues.com/> to me and
now I'm going back through their archive.

Any other suggestions out there? I mean, there's obviously Railscasts but I
don't know if I would consider that a podcast (even though it has "cast" in
the name). I would consider it more like online learning courses.

Are you looking for just pure ruby or web and deployment related tech as
well?

Probably both. Though I'm looking more for podcasts that are about Ruby
that also bring web development into the discussion as opposed to a web
development podcast that brings Ruby into the discussion. Does that make
sense?

With Ruby at the forefront of web technology at the moment, I would imagine
it would be limiting to find a Ruby podcast with no consideration of web
development. It would be like talking about the Dark Tower books without at
least some discussion of Salem's Lot, Hearts in Atlantis, and The Stand
(among others). Not the perfect comparison but I think you catch the drift.

I'd love to find some like that as well. Biking 50 minutes each way to
work and listening to things on 1.35x has me eating through podcasts.
The non-ruby ones I was going to mention are Javascript Jabber which
touches on the server side and ruby mostly pretty often. But if you're
doing web dev you're going to be doing javascript / coffee / etc so
it's a good one for that. I've also been surprised by the java posse
which is some netflix / google / SV guys who are usually talking about
larger scale issues like deployment and large use but non-EE java.
They recently talked about Pairing in one show and Continuous
Deployment in another (except with 400+ machines).

I really also like "The Amp Hour", but that is all EE with barely any
CS except when they complain that they don't know how to code.

Not sure how helpful that is.

The other Ruby-related podcasts that I listen to are Thoughtbot's podcast
(called Giant Robots Smashing Into Other Giant Robots) and the Changelog
(which covers new stuff found via GitHub). There are a couple obsolete
podcasts with some good stuff: Pivotals Labs and Pragmatic Podcasts.

Off-topic podcasts that I listen to that may be of interest to this group:
Straight Dope, Science Friday, Freakonomics, and TED Talks (although a lot
of the TED talks don't work well with audio only). You might also consider
listening to news: BBC, PBS NewsHour, CNN, 60 Minutes.

As far as off topic podcasts, I listen to various ones from some of the top
networks like TWiT, Revision3, 5by5, and FrogPants. I saw somewhere that
5by5 used to have a Ruby show but it's 404 now. Speaking of "404", CNet
used to have a lot of good podcasts but they cut back earlier this year.

RadioLab is usually quite good as an off topic one

"Ruby Freelancers": http://rubyfreelancers.com/
