Not technical, but tech related:
http://exponent.fm/ Exponent by Ben Thompson (of Stratechery) and James Allworth is great for analysis of big tech issues and news.
https://trackchanges.postlight.com/ Track Changes by Paul Ford and Rich Ziade can be quite light, but they have some interesting guests and have lived on the web since it started.
Funny stuff - if you like Football (Soccer) then The Football Ramble is essential. http://www.thefootballramble.com
For british nonsense humour two of them have just stated a spin off. Humour is subjective though so YMMV and don't judge me! http://stakhanovindustries.com/lukeandpeteshow

Rob Dubbin was on the Track Changes podcast with Paul Ford a couple of months ago and it was a pretty great episode: https://trackchanges.postlight.com/rob-dubbin-goes-off-script-a32f9219…

They sometimes refer to themselves as two old men reminiscing about the olden days of the internet. In reality, the quality of guests they have on and the sharpness of their insights is profound. It only makes it better that the whole show is a shameless plug for their product design studio in New York.
Paul Ford and Rich Ziade are genuinely interesting people, good story tellers, and credible builders.
