There have been some changes in my Overcast App! Here are the latest updates to my playlist as well as this summer’s best episodes.
What I dropped
Nothing! Some things have ended or gone on hiatus, but I haven’t had to drop anything from my list, but have room for more!
What I added
Here are the new additions to my playlist since the spring.
Tech
- Clockwise One of the best way to spend 30 minutes (or less if listening to at faster speed) and get some great tech news discussion.
- Material Branching out to learn more about Android, etc.
- Rocket Geek conversation, weekly, with Christina Warren, Brianna Wu and Simone de Rochefort.
- Robot or Not? “John Siracusa educates Jason Snell about what is, and what is not, a robot.” - Quick and tons of fun.
- Developer Tea A very well produced and roughly ten minute discussion for software developers.
TV
- Bingeworthy: Mr. Robot This was a great show this past season, listen to their recap. I look forward to the return of this show next season.
- Quiver Arrow is a great TV show going into it’s fourth season. I’m hoping the show gets back to the greatness of the first and second season.
- The Flash Podcast The Flash TV show had an amazing first season this past year. This podcast has been great to discuss the show in great detail.

General
- Top Four Marco and Tiff Arment discuss their top four…anything.
- Cortex CGP Grey and Myke Hurley discuss the tools of creation and how to be productive.
