Software Engineering Daily Podcast going downhill?

EDIT: Jeff, the host, appears to be having a manic episode and is diagnosed with bipolar disorder. This is very tragic and I hope he gets the help he needs. https://softwaredaily.substack.com/p/how-i-lost-my-mind Original post ———————————————————- The podcast used to be great. However, over the past few months they’ve released some episodes that are just unfiltered rants. Has anyone else noticed this? What are some other good podcast recommendations? Here’s my list: - SE radio - Changelog - CDO battlescars - the Data Exchange - open source data - data Engineering Podcast #podcast #drama #software #softwareengineer #tech

Is this the same guy that sent out an email regarding some mental health issues gossip about him

Microsoft figGiraffe OP Nov 7, 2021

I’ve never been subscribed to an email list, but I wouldn’t be surprised if this is the same person

It used to be a great podcast, especially during the first few years. Great topics, great questions and great research done by Jeff. In the past 1-2 years, the topics are mostly geared towards promoting his sponsors, which sometimes still produced good shows and contained good information. Just found out he's going through some mental issues. Hopefully he takes some time off.

Sucks to hear that he’s going through mental issues. Hopefully he gets some help before seriously hurting his public image

It's even worse today. A slew of new "episodes".
