Podcasts that Make a Lasting Impact

Podcasts are like having a thousand different mentors available to you at your convenience. It is one of the things that makes me incredibly excited to be alive right now. I’ve made a list of some of the best episodes of my favourite podcasts.

The Tim Ferriss Show

The Tim Ferriss Show

This is a life changing podcast, as bold of a statement as that may sound. Tim finds the most inspiring individuals to explore all things life related, by asking them them well thought out questions. I can’t begin to describe how much impact it has had on my thinking.

The Waking Up podcast

Sam Harris is one of the most eloquent speakers out there, he has an ability to lay out his points like no other. He invites guests from various domains, some of whom he agrees with, and some he disagrees with. If you like his podcasts you may also like his books.


After On by Rob Reid

After On

This is a very well put together podcast covering a wide range of topics such as technology, anthropology, evolution, physics and so much more. Also it has the best intro music 🎢.


The North Star podcast by David Perell

The North Star Podcast

This is a very fun and insightful podcast, especially when you consider how young the host is compared to the rest on this list. It covers marketing, technology, cities, communities and a lot more.

This is real life sci-fi. A hopeful reminder of what we are capable of as a race.


Found My Fitness By Rhonda Patrick

All things health-related. Be prepared to hear some biochemistry jargon, but the episodes are videoed and Rhonda helpfully provides definitions on the screen as they are being mentioned.


The Drive by Peter Attia

The Drive

Another health-related podcast focused on living better and longer. It is a new one so I haven’t listened to too many episodes but the following episodes are a nice way to get to know the hosts mentioned earlier.


Software Engineering Daily

Software Engineering Daily

Jeff Meyerson is a machine. He publishes an episode everyday 😱. These are very insightful, mostly programming episodes that delve deep into a given topic. The episodes range from machine learning to dev-ops, blockchain and more.
