In recent years, podcasts have become ever so popular. Instead of reading a book, many people opt to listen to a podcast, after all it may just be slightly easier. People put it on, and get on with their day. Commute. Gym. Running errands. Even by using it as a background noise, there’s a chance you might get some useful information out of it.
With podcasts being ‘trendy’, there is a podcast for every genre, and every possible topic at this rate. And, software engineering is definitely one of them! 100’s of podcasts are available on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, or any platform you could imagine. There is something for everyone, and for everything.
