First things first, my favorite podcasting app is Pocket Casts. I’ve been a fan for many years, even back when it was a paid app. It’s that good.
Top features:
- offline playback,
- volume boost,
- trim silence, and the
- speed adjustment lever
It makes listening to podcasts much more enjoyable for me and my sometimes limited attention span.
The selection
My listening preferences skew heavily to the tech side of things. No surprises there. However, I’m also into psychology, forensic science, and leadership. So I tend to mix that type of content in as well.

It’s a mixed bag, but mostly tech-related
