Suggested Podcasts on Ruby on Rails

Podcasts I find especially useful to keep up-to-date with Ruby on Rails developments.

Liked it? !

Ruby on Rails has a huge community of developers actively innovating the framework and sharing best practices with others. How to keep up-to-date with this wave of development? I am a big proponent of podcasts and here you will find a list of the one I find most helpful and informative to rails developers with a limited amount of time.

These are:
Learning Rails by Michael Slater and Chris Haupt: New to Ruby on Rails? Then without doubt start here. Here you will find one hour lessons on the main pieces of the Rails puzzle on a variety of topics starting at ground zero.
	Railscasts by Ryan Bates: Short podcasts (about 10 minutes) giving tips on how to perform specific tasks or use a new feature. They are great to have as a reference resource or simply to watch systematically from first to last.
Ruby on Rails Podcast by Scott Barron: The original podcast featuring interviews with important or simply interesting developers within the Ruby on Rails community. Great way to hear what other developers are doing.
	Pivotal Labs Tech Talks by Pivotal Labs: One hour talks on a variety of topics from industry leaders. Great way to see people share their experience or share their products.
Rails Envy by Jason Seifer and Gregg Pollack: Scripted fast moving dialog highlighting developments in the Rails community. More than tutorials, these weekly episodes are like a news podcast packed with information with intersperced witty jokes and sound props.
