@daniellevine I listen to a LOT of podcasts — some talking head tech shows (ATP, The Talk Show, etc), and a lot of public-radio style edited shows (TAL, Radiolab, 99% Invisible, Reply All, etc). I enjoy hearing Apple/tech news, but this more edited style of show is what I prefer to listen to, and nobody was making a show at the intersection of these two worlds. Really, it was just the show I wanted to listen to. I cold-emailed people in the Apple/indie developer community who I knew had good stories, and a number were gracious enough to give me a shot. The biggest challenge I've faced (and continue to struggle with) is focussing on actual stories. I find myself tackling topics (skeuomorphism) that don't have a huge amount of narrative to them, and it's easy to get lost from here. The story lives or dies by having good characters and a compelling plot, and it can be hard to keep that focus in a tech show.
