On Twitter an interesting question was posed in a conversation that started with a listing of podcasts and the amazing Reid Evans interjecting that mine belongs on the list.  Eventually, this was asked:

I have some thoughts in this.  There are many of the episodes that stand out to me.  I can't possibly pick a favorite.  There are many criteria by which to judge and many ways to approach thinking about the question.  I'll create a list of list of shows that stand out to me and the reasons they are of significance.  This is not to say others are of lesser importance or value.  This is an attempt to answer the question and provide a little perspective on some episodes I recommend listening.  It's a pretty quick listing and I'm sure I've missed some that I should list.

First, an objective criertion: The most downloaded episodes:

  1. David Heinemeier Hansson
  2. Uncle Bob Martin
  3. Chad Fowler
  4. Dave Thomas
  5. Justin Searls
  6. Michael Feathers
  7. José Valim
  8. Scott Hanselman
  9. Quincy Larson
  10. Jeffrey Richter

The conversations I've had with some of the people I consider to be my personal heroes:

Powerful episodes with people with amazing stories: (this category is not limited to these, but these come to mind as exemplifying this characteristic)

Special to me because of the relationships I have developed: (this category is not limited to these, but these come to mind as exemplifying this characteristic)
