Some of my favorites, some are specific to certain technologies, apologies if those aren't areas you work in: HanselMinutes - https://www.hanselminutes.com/ Front End Happy Hour - http://frontendhappyhour.com/ (this one is specific to the frontend, JS ecosystem, but is loads of fun!) Software Engineering Radio - http://www.se-radio.net/ (lots of interesting topics and guess here, covers a wide range) The Changelog - https://changelog.com/podcast (only really relevant if you're interested in opensource projects) Programming Throwdown - http://www.programmingthrowdown.com/ (this one strays from programming quite a bit, but the hosts cover some really interesting topics and keep things simple)

"simple programmer" may not be for everybody. Granted, I only listened to one episode, but I was not a fan of the host at all. He came off as incredibly arrogant and "I am better than you"-ish.
