Aside from the Books I Recommend, I noticed that every two weeks or so someone asks me about good blogs or podcasts to follow. For the longest time I had mixed feelings about it. Books are static. The opinion (and sanity) of bloggers and podcasters might change. I also don’t catch every podcast or blog post. So far, I found the list below helpful.
Venture Capital
- Podcast: Origins – by Notation, “Origins – A podcast about Limited Partners, created by Notation Capital”: https://notation.vc/#podcast
- Blog: A VC, “I write something here every weekday and sometimes on the weekends too. I’ve been doing that since September 2003.”: https://avc.com/
- Blog: Hunter Walker, “Partner @Homebrew. Seed stage venture fund serving founders who enable individuals and small biz to think big”, https://hunterwalk.com/
Startups and Finance
- Blog: Kellblog, “Kellblog covers topics related to starting, leading, and scaling enterprise software startups, including strategy, marketing, management, SaaS metrics, and venture capital financing.”: https://kellblog.com/
- Blog: Nir and Far, “plan better, work better, live better”: https://www.nirandfar.com/
- Podcast: The Solana Podcast, “a discussion between industry leaders in both blockchain and technology, [Solana’s] team, and community developers“: https://podcast.solana.com/
Security, Law, Policy
- Podcast: The Lawfare Podcast, “issues from foreign policy, homeland security, intelligence, and cybersecurity to governance and law”: https://www.lawfareblog.com/topic/lawfare-podcast
- Podcast: Pod Save America, “Four former aides to President Obama—Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, Dan Pfeiffer and Tommy Vietor—are joined by journalists, politicians, activists, and more for a no-bt conversation about politics”: https://crooked.com/podcast-series/pod-save-america/
- Podcast: Strict Scrutiny, “Strict Scrutiny is a podcast about the United States Supreme Court and the legal culture that surrounds it”: https://crooked.com/podcast-series/strict-scrutiny/
- Show: The Daily Wire Plus, “DailyWire+ is the streaming home of The Daily Wire, Jordan Peterson, Movies, PragerU, and DW Kids. [..] The Daily Wire does not claim to be without bias. We’re opinionated, we’re noisy, and we’re having a good time.” https://www.dailywire.com/watch/jordan-peterson (don’t just tune out yet. It’s good to listen to different opinions. This platform might get hijacked at some point, but for now, I find the alternative story-telling interesting and useful.)
Management and Leadership
- Podcast: The Oath, “Listen in on revealing conversations with fascinating men and women who took an oath to serve our nation”: https://www.msnbc.com/theoath
- Podcast: Dear HBR, “advice for workplace dilemmas”: https://hbr.org/2018/01/podcast-dear-hbr
- Podcast: Jocko Podcast, “Leadership and Discipline”: https://jockopodcast.com/ (I do sometime skip the Jiu Jitsu advice, I admit)
