No, not improved. The recent episode where they talked about cars for practically the whole show was the end of it for me. Unsubscribed.



He actually turned this as an upside, saying during the show something like `I do a show about random things developers might also be interested in, not about developing` (I paraphrase heavily). Perhaps they should rename the show.

For technical matters, the Hypecritical podcast is way way better.


The "might" there is the thing. I _might_ be interested in his home renovation, his personal preferences in regards to coffee, music and leasing cars or the fact that he's having a kid. I might, _if_ he were my brother-in-law.

From the the Instapaper guy, all I want to know is what he thinks about web/iOS development and running his own business. I get the impression lately that Marco is either out of material on development topics, or just not interested in discussing them.

EDIT: That said, here's hoping Marco blasts out some awesome changes and makes Instapaper even better, love him or hate him he's an inspiration to one-man shops, and produces some great stuff.
