Due to the popularity of the WeAreNetflix [https://jobs.netflix.com/podcast] podcast I am contacted a bit about my thoughts on company podcasts. The WeAreNetflix podcast started off based on an internal only podcast that Michael Paulson and I started as a hack-day project. This episode is 20min of me talking about company internal podcasts.
