On a related note, what other good programming-related podcasts are out there? I'm currently aware of The ChangeLog (http://thechangelog.com/), which is pretty infrequently-updated, and This Developer's Life (http://thisdeveloperslife.com/), which, while super-interesting, is only superficially technical (and more about life interests that developers generally have in common).

What are some good balls-deep-in-code podcasts out there?

Not many that are general, but tons that are language specific. I've found that language specific ones often cover relevant topics, even if it's not your language (such as TDD or DI). Many have shows that are completely off subject matter (I learned of PhoneGap for the first time on a .NET show)

In my rotation: (.NET) .NET Rocks, Hanselminutes (one of the hosts on This Developers Life), Deep Fried Bytes, Herding Code

(Ruby) Ruby Rogues, Ruby 5 (5 minute news, 2x/week), Ruby Show (seems to be on hiatus)

(JavaScript) JavaScript Jabber (sister of Ruby Rogues), JavaScript Show (same hosts as Ruby Show - also on hiatus)

Ruby Show (seems to be on hiatus), JavaScript Show (same hosts as Ruby Show - also on hiatus)

We start recording again next week :-)

Also, seconding recommendation of Ruby Rogues - and not just for Ruby developers. It digs into a lot of interesting stuff.

Software Engineering Radio - http://www.se-radio.net

They're screencasts, not podcasts, but you might be interested in my two TDD-focused screencasts. They're code heavy. They are:

Let's Play: Test-Driven Development (Java focused)

Let's Code: Test-Driven Javascript (newer)

Click my name for the links.

Misleading. These don't seem to even exist yet.

The first one does; it has nearly 200 episodes already, it seems.

Sorry, didn't see your reply right away.

They both exist. The Java screencast has 201 episodes online at http://jamesshore.com/Blog/Lets-Play/ . The Javascript screencast has 35 episodes up at http://www.letscodejavascript.com . The Javascript series is subscription-only and won't be available to the general public for another month or two, but it's real, and you can sign up to be notified when it opens up.

another great js-influenced podcast I enjoy http://javascriptjabber.com/
