Podcasts worth listening to (Part II)
A while back I posted about some of the podcasts I thought were worth listening to. While by no means an exhaustive list I thought it might be good to post again with some new additions. So again in no particular order here are some other podcasts I would recommend listening to:
Canadian Couch Potato
If you enjoy reading the blog you’ll likely also enjoy listening to this podcast
- Description: Canadian Couch Potato is a very popular method of passive investing using index funds in order to save the investor a lot of the fees involved in more active, mutual fund based investments. This is a new podcast from the people running the website that covers a wide variety of financial topics.

On the Media
Can be a bit too US-centric and left leaning at times but every episode is extremely well put together and produced
- Description: On the Media is news oriented show that deals with both current events in the US political landscape as well as other, more obscure but well investigated topics. It is a highly polished show that provides quite a bit of interesting content but may need to be forgiven for its unashamed political bent at times.

Coder Radio
This one may not be for everyone but if you’re in the industry like I am it might be worth giving it a listen
- Description: Coder Radio is a show that deals with the world of software development. Each episode covers a central topic as well as a range of other current news pieces and commentary. While its somewhat niche topic may not be for everyone, if it is something you might be interested it I would recommend giving it a try.

Because Money Podcast
This show makes a complicated subject entertaining and never feels overwhelming to listen to
- Description: Because Money is a long-running (OK, it’s not that old but they are on Season 3 already…) financial podcast that takes complicated topics and breaks them down. It is chalk full of information and each episode is different which gives it a good amount of variety.
