Very well put together small bite sized look at coding topics, explained in a very clear and relatable manner.
Only 4 stars however due to the short length of each episode (which on its own is fine) combined with the fact that the same ad is played halfway through. This makes it very difficult to binge through a lot of episodes when you are driving and can't skip past that section.
If you can get past the ads though a very nice podcast.

Apple Podcasts5Im DerpYTUnited States7 years ago - Explanations that reach me
I am relatively late to learning about how computers and programming works but have started college classes and have begun learning. I have grown to love the Take Up Code podcasts because Mr. Tanner breaks down topics to a basic-level but without losing depth in the reason for learning that topic or its uses. I am so glad to have found these podcasts!
Apple Podcasts5Redhot919United States7 years ago - Very good!
Simple, to the point with no dumb jokes, bad pronunciation and vulgarity. I recommend for all.
Apple Podcasts5Ant. BoyUnited States8 years ago - Fantastic teacher
Wahid Tanner does a great job explaining complex topics in a way that makes sense. He provides a unique mix of high-level discussion and in-depth exploration into each topic. I especially like how he gives context to the way things work and explains why certain conventions are followed instead of just saying “that’s just how it is”.
Keep up the great work!
