The 25 Best WordPress Podcasts to Help Your Business in 2021
| by Brenda Barron
There's always something new to be learned in WordPress. New coding techniques. Shifting design trends and security needs. Tools that allow for greater efficiency and site speed. As the open source software and all the processes around it evolve, you'll have to evolve as well.
But when do you find the time to learn new skills and discover what WordPress news has the community atwitter?
You could join a local or virtual WordPress community, but that requires a rather sizable time commitment. You could subscribe to a blog (which is probably what you're doing here), but this also requires you to have the time to sit down and read.
Videos are helpful since they're quicker to digest, but they might not be as theoretical or conversational as you'd like them to be.
This is why WordPress podcasts are growing in popularity every year.
Podcasts were introduced on iTunes in 2005. Today, there are more than 525,000 podcasts, 18.5 million episodes, and they're published in over 100 languages.
Our team at WP Buffs helps website owners, agency partners, and freelancer partners monitor their WordPress sites 24/7. Whether you need us to manage a 1 website or support 1000 client sites, we've got your back.
Finding a podcast that resonates with you, in general, whether it's WordPress or otherwise, is a hard enough task. Unless you have a group of WordPress colleagues, friends, or acquaintances, getting personalized recommendations is hard to come by.
So, that's what this guide is for.
We're going to look at the best WordPress podcasts, give you some samples of their most popular episodes, and help you more quickly narrow down the choices.
The Best WordPress Podcasts You Need in Your Life (2021) 🎙
The convenience factor alone makes podcasts a fantastic choice for WordPress developers, designers, and others wanting to learn more about WordPress and how to use it to improve their businesses.
As you can see from this Podcast Consumer 2018 report, there are a great many locations in which a podcast can be listened to. This means taking the stories, questions, and advice from WordPress professionals and experts everywhere and anywhere you go!
WordPress podcasts are a great way to learn for beginners, experts and everyone else. What a great way to learn! That's not to say you should stop seeking out information through other channels. Those will still be valuable. But if you feel as though you're not getting enough of it, a podcast would be immensely helpful. (Or 24 of the best WordPress podcasts, ever.)
Which one do you listen to? Will you find something of value with any you pick up and listen to?
Like WordPress blogs and video channels, WordPress podcasts come in all flavors. Below, we've provided an explanation of:

1. The WPMRR WordPress Podcast
Here at WP Buffs, we found that some people who were interested in working with our 24/7 white-label WordPress support program were actually more interested in finding their own way to increase their monthly recurring revenue.
So we launched the WPMRMR WordPress podcast! It's fully focused on helping WordPress professionals increase their subscription revenue and run a more successful, comfortable and stress-free business.
You can also watch the video version of every episode on YouTube.
Quick sidenote: to take things even further, we launched the annual WPMRR Virtual Summit. It's an online conference 100% focused on helping you make monthly recurring revenue work for your WordPress business.
You can check out sessions from previous years on YouTube or read about all the behind-the-scenes details of the summit.
Back to the podcast…
Our CEO Joe started the WPMRR WordPress podcast with Christie Chirinos. It started as a fun project between the two but has grown to be one of the biggest podcasts in the WordPress space.
It's almost exclusively focused on how to grow a WordPress business via monthly recurring revenue (thus the MRR in WPMRR) but has a lot of topics on other essential topics like how to take a 3-week vacation from you business, how to successfully apply to speak at WordCamps, or all the metrics you need to know to run a productized service. Boom!
Episodes generally run between 40 and 50 minutes. Joe records digitally from wherever he is. The podcast features amazing guests with loads of good stuff to share as well!
Got to hang out with @xtiechirinos and do an in-person WPMRR podcast recording yesterday (and a second with @jason_coleman)! Plus Rock Creek Park 😎 #WordPress pic.twitter.com/48LEYdAzKH

Episode 42: Harry Potter on being acquired by GoDaddy (Rich Tabor, CoBlocks/GoDaddy)
Rich Tabor, one of the founders of CoBlocks and Block Gallery (both of whom were sold to GoDaddy) is currently the Senior Product Manager of WordPress Experience at GoDaddy. In this episode, Tabor speaks about his multiple attempts at building businesses, his work on the Gutenberg theme, and his work on WordPress over the years.
Episode 46: Boba Fett on starting a freelance career (Sam Smith, gsamsmith.com)
In this episode, Sam Smith, a web developer, website administrator, and support technician speaks about changing careers, what it takes to start a freelance career, and mental blocks that keep you from doing what you want.
Bonus WPMRR Episodes
As the WPMRR podcast picks up speed, there are a number of new and highly popular episodes you need to turn your attention to.
B1. An Ewok on experimenting with pricing
Brad Touesnard of Delicious Brains joins the WPMRR podcast to talk about hosting, building and selling for WordPress, and pricing strategies.
B2. Another Ewok on preparing for a year of digital nomadism
Robby McCullough of Beaver Builder shares some insight into why he's decided to ditch the office life and how he intends on trying out digital nomadism for the next year.
B3. Threepio on telling stories that close deals
Chris Lema of Liquid Web takes time away from BeachPress to tell stories and talk about how to tell stories to bring people together and eventually close more deals.

B5. BB-8 on physical and digital organization
Joe Casabona comes to this WPMRR episode prepared to give away some super valuable efficiency and productivity hacks for WordPress freelancers.
2. WP Elevation
The WP Elevation podcast is hosted by a number of leaders at WPE, including Troy Dean, which gives this podcast a good amount of variety in terms of content and style. What remains the same for the most part, however, is the fantastic lineup of guests. Some are actual "Elevators"–WordPress consultants who use WP Elevation's program–and some just have a really great story to tell about building a business (and not just with WordPress).
Episodes are usually only about 30 minutes long, but some hover closer to the hour-mark.
Hear directly from Troy Dean of WP Elevation on the WPMRR WordPress podcast where he chats about scaling your business, focusing on high-level goals and being grateful.
Although WP Elevation is a community for WordPress consultants and developers, anyone trying to build recurring revenue businesses (with or without WordPress) will find value in this podcast. Topics are generally broken down into the following buckets, so you can listen to episodes that pertain solely to the kind of business you want to run: processes, getting clients, recurring revenue, growth, tech, and balance.

How I Built a Six-Figure Recurring Revenue Business (Parts 1, 2, and 5)
WP Elevation is known for its Blueprint, which is a program that walks WordPress professionals through the process of building a successful business. But it's also known for the helpful guidance and tools it provides to members and website visitors alike. This multi-part podcast is one of those such resources that's highly valued by podcast listeners.
Listen to Part 1
3. WP Briefing
WP Briefing is a brand new WordPress podcast that just premiered on February 1, 2021. Hosted by Josepha Haden, the executive director of the WordPress open source project, this new podcast is designed to give listeners "quick insights into the longstanding philosophies of the WordPress open source project," along with interviews and updates from around the WordPress community. This podcast is a great one to add to your list simply because it offers short, "bite-sized insights," directly from the people who lead the WordPress project.
Episodes will likely range just under 15 minutes.
The WP Briefing podcast is designed for WordPress users, builders, and contributors of all levels. Basically, if you do anything with WordPress, this podcast is for you.
First Podcast Episode:
Welcome to Your WP Briefing
For the inaugural WP Briefing podcast, Josepha shares what to expect from this podcast, some thoughts about the State of the Word 2020, and a list of focuses for the coming weeks.
4. Agency Trailblazer
Agency Trailblazer is building a community of WordPress agencies and developers. The goal? To guide these WordPress pros towards better business practices; more efficient processes, more effective client management, greater revenue generation, and so on. In addition to offering a project roadmap, workshops, coaching, and more, Agency Trailblazers has a podcast for those who want to take their professional guidance on the go.
Episodes range from 15 minutes to 1.5 hours, though the average episode takes place over 30 to 45 minutes.
In terms of the kind of content the podcast provides, these are business growth tips directly targeted at WordPress professionals. More specifically, target listeners should have or should be working on building an agency. It doesn't matter what your area of specialty is. These are practical guides and interviews that will help you figure out how to be more efficient and effective with your time.
How storytelling benefits business: #179 with Jody Maberry
Jody Maberry has had an interesting professional history. It was his stint as a park ranger that inspired his move into marketing, podcasting, and storytelling. In this episode, he talks about why storytelling is critical to business success and how he uses a three-pronged storytelling formula to help clients become more engaging for their audiences.
Our WordPress Website Build Process: #51 with Lee Jackson
Lee Jackson, the host of this podcast, covers this episode without a featured guest. Instead, he uses this time to discuss how his own agency builds WordPress websites. He covers everything from the initial project brief through launch. In addition, he includes insights and tips for each step: development, design, content creation, QA and testing, and even client training in WordPress.
Building A Better WordPress Business: #05 with Troy Dean
This is one of the first episodes of the podcast, back when it was still known as the WP Innovator podcast. It features Troy Dean of WP Elevation, which we discussed above. Troy discusses the realities of freelancing and trying to start and run your own WordPress business. He digs into the real challenges freelancers face when they don't have the right processes in place and what his company WP Elevation is doing to fix this.
5. Developer Tea
The Spec Network is a family of podcast and blog resources for web developers and designers. There's one podcast, in particular, Developer Tea, which was the starting point for the network and continues to be a trusted resource for WordPress developers.
Episodes range from 5 minutes to 45 minutes, though the average episode takes place over 15 minutes.
Here's the tagline used at the start of one of the podcasts:
"My goal on the show is to help driven developers connect to their career purpose and do better work, so you can have a positive influence on people around you."
There's a lot in here about coding tips and programming languages. There is also the occasional episode that focuses on business tips. The most popular posts focus on the latter.
How to Argue Better
This short podcast touches on the idea that developers need to have more fruitful conversations with clients and colleagues. It digs into the underlying issue which is, namely, that many developers allow their egos to get wrapped up in the code they write. Any criticism made of their work is taken as a swipe at their character, which is what leads to unproductive conversations.
4 Principles of Great Learners
This podcast introduces the idea that successful people (specifically, in the realm of technology) have a number of shared traits. Because much of this boils down to the way they learn and later apply this acquired knowledge, there are concrete steps developers can take to reconfigure the way they think about and approach tasks.
Fear, Change & Instincts
There's something "safe" about the work done in WordPress. Tools, processes, communication–it remains relatively the same from project to project. But this podcast challenges developers to put aside their instincts when they sense a threatening change and be open to it. Not all changes will be good, but, in some cases, change is necessary if you want to grow.
6. How I Built It
How I Built It is a WordPress-focused podcast like many of the others on this list. However, what sets this one apart is the approach taken with the guests. Instead of listening to them promote what they do in WordPress, this digs more into the product they've built. So, while you might recognize the names of many of the guests on this podcast, the stories won't like what you hear elsewhere. Plus it has Joe Casabona, featured on WPMRR.
Episodes generally run between 30 and 45 minutes.
You don't have to be a WordPress developer to appreciate this. Many tools and businesses covered in this podcast are ones that any WordPress professional might recognize. If you enjoy learning about origin stories or you're hoping to build a WordPress plugin or theme of your own, this is a great podcast to tune into.
Jason Coleman and Paid Memberships Pro
This is the first episode of the podcast and features the developer behind the Paid Memberships Pro plugin. Jason Coleman talks about the reason why he believed this plugin deserved a spot in the marketplace, what happened after launch, as well as some of the frustrations that came with supporting and selling his plugin.
Brian Richards and WooSesh
This is one of the more recent episodes recorded (episode #98) and features Brian Richards of WPSessions. He discusses how he came to be involved with WordSesh, a virtual conference that was popular with WordPress developers but wasn't consistently offered from year to year. Later expanded to two free conferences–one for WordPress (WordSesh) and one for WooCommerce (WooSesh)–he talks a bit more about the logistics of these events.
Jen Jamar and Marketing
There's a lot to understand about marketing, whether it's your own business or for your clients. The guest speaker, Jen Jamar (Roventine), breaks it down into more practical terms that anyone can understand. She provides a variety of tips, too, which makes this a valuable podcast to listen to for anyone trying to build their brand effectively.
7. Kitchen Sink WP
The Kitchen Sink WordPress has been kicking around since 2014 when founder Adam Silver decided to give back to the WordPress community after finding value in what the CMS had to offer. The podcast is a hodgepodge of topics of relevance to WordPress users at all levels. Event roundups. Plugin reviews. Freelance business tips. There's a wide variety of content to listen to and an extensive library of it that continues to be published today.
Episodes are typically no longer than 15 minutes.
I would say this podcast is ideal for anyone who uses WordPress. You may have to cherry-pick episodes based on your level of experience or interest in WordPress, but there is more than enough interesting content here for all WordPress enthusiasts.
Podcast E243 – The GiveWP Plugin Review
As this episode brushes up close to the holiday season, it revolves around the GiveWP plugin. If you develop websites for nonprofits or you run one yourself, this donation plugin is one you may be interested in learning more about.
Podcast E241 – Mental Health
Adam Silver talks about his personal experiences with mental health problems and how he got treatment for it. In the end, provides additional information for people in technology that also need to/want to seek out mental health support.
Podcast E213 – The Pre Launch Checklist
This episode is a more process-centric discussion. Silver shares his pre-launch checklist for taking clients from production to a live server. If you're new to this or want to hear how someone else handles it, tune in.
8. LMScast
Lifter LMS is an online course plugin for WordPress. As you might imagine, the associated podcast revolves around educational subject matter within the context of the WordPress CMS. Podcasts on LMScast aren't just in audio formats though, which give this podcast another unique edge. All podcasts come with a video counterpart for those who enjoy watching the people they're listening to.
Episodes tend to be all over the place in terms of length, though they're almost always shorter than 60 minutes.
The obvious target for this podcast would be the WordPress developer who specializes in building online courses and educational websites. However, for those of you thinking about starting your own online course repository or training program, these episodes would prove valuable to you as well.
How to Launch a Successful Online Course MVP
Divi users and course builders should find this episode very interesting. It features guest speaker David Blackmon of WP The Podcast who creates courses and digital products and had a very important lesson to share about overestimating the length of projects so developers stop getting into trouble with clients.
How to Make an Online Course Website in 2018
Whether you're looking to gain more insights into building online courses for WordPress clients or you want to launch your own YouTube channel, this interview with Adam Preiser of WPCrafter is a good one to listen to. Tips pertain not just to building a course website, but how to market it as well.
How to Generate Online Course and Membership Site
Just like any other website, online course sites need to have lead generation. In this episode, Josh Haynam of Interact suggests that pre- and post-course quizzes are the best way to do this as course members typically aren't in the habit of downloading ebooks or other lead magnets offered through more traditional business websites.
9. Matt Report
The Matt Report has only been around since 2013, but it's proven quite popular with listeners since its inception. The focus here is less on web development tools, processes, or coding tips. It's more about providing listeners with insights into running their WordPress businesses the best way they can. Guest speakers provide practical and actionable guidance on everything from how to prepare to launch a business to how to boost your profits.
Episodes run a wide gamut of lengths, typically between 5 – 50 minutes.
The Matt Report is a podcast for anyone who has or is trying to build a business around WordPress. Designers. Developers. Writers. Consultants. If you want to understand the WordPress ecosystem better, you must listen to this podcast.
You're building your WordPress business all wrong
In this interview, Matt interviews Christie Chirinos from Caldera Forms. While they cover a number of topics, the underlying message is one you don't always hear in this community. In sum, there are plentiful opportunities within WordPress to build a business, but you won't really find success with it unless you have a unique product that solves a real problem.
Niching down your web design business
Sara Dunn of 11Web Agency discusses her experiences with launching and managing a remote agency from home. She delves into some of the challenges she's faced, especially as her target customer base has shrunk (which happens as you carve out a niche and start charging higher fees for web development and marketing).
WordPress Is Changing
This episode is Matt's introduction to Season 8, after a hiatus from the podcast. It's a short episode, but he addresses head-on the fact that WordPress is changing and those working within the space need to reassess how they do business within it.
10. OfficeHours.fm
OfficeHours.fm used to be a weekly WordPress podcast that featured a variety of guests talking about topics of interest to freelancers, business owners, plugin and theme developers, as well as anyone else working in or around WordPress. However, it's been a few months now since the podcast published an episode–and it appears that it often goes off of the grid months at a time–so set your expectations accordingly. While you might not get new and highly valuable content to listen to every week, there is a huge repository of episodes to dig through.
Older episodes run about 60 minutes while those recorded after 2016 generally run 30 minutes or so.
This podcast is for anyone building a business with WordPress. That may mean business owners using WordPress to power their company's website. That may mean freelancers who build those websites for them. Or it could be those who build the tools that work within or complement the WordPress CMS.
How to turn your expertise into recurring revenue
In this episode, Michael Steele talks about his agency's transition from general web design and development services to something a bit more specialized. Because many freelancers face this challenge of sustaining revenue with traditional one-off development jobs, there's a really great lesson to take away from this episode about niching and finding a source of recurring revenue.
Freelancing Like a Pro
Curtis McHale provides tips and suggestions on how to remain a freelancer, but to do so in a way that leads to predictable revenue and scalable success. While the idea of finding a specialty in WordPress is nothing new, it's his focus on the marketing of one's business that really stands out in this talk.
This episode features Beka Rice, of BekaRice.com who's done a lot in the WordPress space and also happens to be a digital nomad. As such, this interview touches on a wide range of topics that would be of interest to others trying to make a living in WordPress while doing so from around the world.
11. Post Status Draft
Post Status originally began as an aggregator site that shared links to interesting and informative articles about WordPress. It then became a blog that published original news content for WordPress, which eventually segued into the podcast. Once or twice a month, Post Status Draft Podcast publishes a new episode and covers WordPress news, tips, tools, and interviews.
Episodes are generally about 45 – 60 munites.
Although general WordPress enthusiasts or DIY users may find something of interest here, this is really a podcast targeted at those who make a living building WordPress websites or the tools within it.
Whether you work as a full-time WordPress freelancer or this is your side hustle, you know how easy it is to get burned out on too much work. And that's what this episode deals with: the often inevitable burnout and how to fight against it with healthier routines.
The art of being a self-employed web consultant
Diane Kinney is interviewed in this episode and shares her thoughts on "real world freelancing". Basically, she breaks down the flaws in how WordPress consultants approach work–their processes, their tools, the structure of their business. And sheds light on a more effective way of tackling it all.
What is a WordPress theme anyway?
We all know what a WordPress theme is. But this episode sees Joe Hoyle of Human Made digging into the state of the WordPress theme (and page builders) today. If you're interested in learning more about the coding of a theme and how it contributes to what we're able to do with it on the front end of a website, this is a great episode to tune into.
12. The WordPress Chick/Kim Doyal
Kim Doyal, formerly known as "The WordPress Chick", hosts a semi-regular podcast around content marketing. You'll occasionally find topics directly related to using WordPress to support one's marketing efforts, but that's not the main focus here.
Episodes generally run around 50 – 60 minutes.
This podcast is strictly for those who want to learn more about content marketing. This could be marketing for your WordPress business or marketing for your clients' businesses. But if you're trying to learn about using themes and plugins, or restructuring your workday to be the most productive, you won't find that kind of content here. This is about growth through marketing.
Tori Reid On Building A Brand With Content & A Facebook Group
Like many of us, Tori Reid reached a point where she became fed up with working for others, paying for more school, and having no clear direction for what she wanted to do with her life and time. In this episode, she talks about how she switched gears and created her own path, one which would give her autonomy and help her create a brand around her name.
SEO for Growth with Phil Singleton
This isn't your typical SEO podcast episode. Phil Singleton talks about building a search strategy with your website instead of just viewing a website as something to be designed. The content found there is what establishes your brand as an authority and ultimately appears in search to prospects, so this guide teaches developers how to take a more effective approach to building websites.
Build the Machine First: Strategic Business Growth for Non-Douchey People
This episode may seem like it has a 'click-baity' title, but it's an important message for anyone who's tried to take the "get rich quick" shortcut to starting an online business. Kim Doyal talks about why these should be avoided and how to build a bonafide business model that prospects will naturally flock to.
13. WP eCommerce Show
Bob Dunn has been known around these parts for quite a while. He's been working with WordPress since the late '00s and was building e-commerce and membership sites much earlier than most. This particular podcast is part of a family of podcasts known as "BobWP" and focuses specifically on e-commerce and monetization in WordPress.
Episodes run around 30 – 40 minutes in length.
These episodes are very practical guides for anyone–DIY WordPress users, web design or developer freelancers, or e-commerce marketers–trying to make money with a WordPress site. Actionable insights and tips are provided not just by the host, but by the expert guest speakers that take part in each episode.
Making the Transition from Affiliate Marketing to Affiliate Manager
Affiliate marketing is a well-known monetization strategy for WordPress websites. But there are limitations and a lot of stress that can come from affiliate marketing. Dustin Howes of Performance Marketing Manager suggests ways in which affiliates can move from marketing to management and why they should do this.
eCommerce Organic Search vs. Social with Rand Fishkin
Rand Fishkin, the co-founder of Moz, and current founder of SparkToro talks to Bob in this podcast about e-commerce SEO and social media marketing; more specifically, organic search vs. social media and whether one is better than the other. He breaks down what he sees as the strengths of each strategy and then lends some insight into the future of organic search marketing through voice.
Store Builders and WooCommerce with Patrick Rauland and Brian Richards
This episode will appeal to you if you build WooCommerce stores. You'll hear from the leaders behind WooSesh–a virtual conference they discuss a bit in the episode–who shed some light on the inherent struggles e-commerce store builders and developers face.
14. WP-Tonic Show
WP-Tonic hosts a podcast for WordPress developers and users working in the LMS and online course space. What's especially nice about this podcast is that multiple episodes are recorded throughout the week, each day dedicated to a specific topic or purpose.
30-minute interviews take place on Wednesdays and hour-long live roundtable discussions are on Fridays.
This is for anyone involved in the development, management, or ownership of an LMS (educational) website. All types of people will get something out of this podcast!
#338 WP-Tonic Friday's Round-Table Show 19th of October, 2019
This is one of the most recent episodes recorded and it'll give you a sense for how the live roundtable sessions go. Topics under discussion revolve around the latest news in WordPress, so this one tackles things like Gutenberg, blockchain security, and Gmail.
#288 WP-Tonic Round-Table Show for Friday 27th of April, 018
This roundtable discussion takes us back to what was big in WordPress news in early 2018. However, you should still find some stories worthy of note in this one, including a review of WordPress page builders, accessibility, and tips for running a successful design business.
#244 WP Tonic Show We Interview Adam Fout We Discuss The World of Online Content Marketing Does It Really Work?
This episode is an interview with Adam Fout of Blue Steele Solutions. The focus here is on the development of a solid content marketing strategy with the use of things like customer personas, style guides, and editorial calendars.
15. WPwatercooler
WPwatercooler has a number of shows that revolve around the subject matter of WordPress, though this one is the flagship podcast and the most popular. The live (and video-recorded) roundtable discussions see WordPress professionals and experts talking about everything related to maximizing the power of the content management system.
Each episode is recorded live on Fridays, which makes this a perfect 30 – 40 minute podcast to tune in for.
This is mainly for WordPress developers and designers. You'll learn not just about building a strong business through better utilization of WordPress, but you'll also get to see more into the technical side of things which many podcasts don't typically cover.
Episode 292 Is Imminent
With this episode butting up against the looming WordPress 5.0 and Gutenberg launch, it's no surprise that this is the main point of discussion in this episode. But unlike other podcasts that cover it from a "do we/don't we like it" viewpoint, this goes a bit deeper into how development teams are preparing for it through their technologies.
Ep291 – Solving Gutenberg
We've got another episode here that revolves around Gutenberg. However, this one isn't just talking about the launch of Gutenberg, but about the botched announcement and rollout of the WordPress editor over the past year. If you or your colleagues were unhappy with the major shift WordPress dropped on everyone in 2017 and want to hear more about what the backlash has done within the community, check this out.
282 – Venting About Gutenberg
And, finally, another episode about Gutenberg! Because WordPress developers are feeling quite anxious about the tentatively scheduled shift to the new editor, it's no surprise that WPwatercooler has spent so much time talking about it and that their audience has gravitated to it as of late. However, if you're still feeling raw about it, this episode might make you feel better.
16. Your Website Engineer
Your Website Engineer is a podcast that launched back in 2010 and consistently delivers highly focused content to listeners every week. The goal is to be the go-to resource for anyone wanting to improve their skills with WordPress–and it covers a broad expanse of it, too. For example, recent episodes covered topics related to security, translation, CSS tips, tracking changes, and caching.
Episodes are shorter; typically, no more than 15 – 20 minutes in length.
Novice and DIY WordPress users might be able to gain some insight from this podcast, though it's probably going to be too technical in nature. Instead, I'd suggest that WordPress professionals listen to this podcast, especially if you're a web developer or a WordPress maintenance professional.
Best Way to Build a New Site
Web development jobs won't always require you to start with a clean slate. When your clients ask for a rebranding, a design makeover, or an update that reflects the shift from one business model to another, you have choices available for how you handle it. This episode will cover them.
WordPress from A to Z – Part 1
This is a pretty comprehensive episode that covers WordPress terminology. This would be a great episode to listen to if you're just starting out in WordPress development or if you want to provide new employees or contractors with an educational resource they can turn to with questions they have.
Essential Plugins for Every Website
This episode provides a rundown of all the essential plugins a WordPress website needs, with a number of options included for each recommendation. Plugin types suggested are security, backup, caching, forms, SEO, and more.
17. The Get Options Podcast
The Get Options podcast comes with two hosts. One is Adam Silver–who you'll learn more about in another podcast on this list: KitchenSinkWP. The other is Kyle Maurer who runs a marketing agency. The first part of each episode has both men talking about what's going on in their lives as well as recapping the latest news in WordPress. They then field questions from listeners, provide answers, and discuss their own differing insights on the matter at hand. Kyle has also been featured on the WPMRR WordPress podcast.
Earlier episodes of the podcast range from 20 – 60 minutes.
Because the bulk of the discussion comes from listeners, content from episode to episode may be unpredictable. Some questions revolve around technical subjects like building themes or coding plugins. Other questions deal in WordPress business best practices. As such, this podcast would really only be a good fit if you're a web developer or designer who works with WordPress.
Podcast E050: Age is just a number!
This is one of their longer episodes, but it's in honor of it being their 50th episode. In this one, the guys talk about making moves–to WordCamp and to new homes. They answer a question about time-tracking, rant a bit about how volunteers are treated at WordCamps and cover a number of other topics that would be of interest to WordPress developers.
Podcast E063: Custom all the way
If you're a fan of Matchbox 20, you might get a kick out of where this episode quickly devolves into as Kyle sings about his struggles to the tune of "I'm Not Crazy". Fast forward a bit further into the episode and the guys discuss WordCamps, Gutenberg, and custom tables vs. custom post types.
Podcast E000: Ready, set…GO!
This is the very first episode of the podcast. The guys introduce themselves and explain why they're doing The Get Options Podcast. Basically, they have both worked in WordPress for a long time and have a lot of offline conversations that they thought would be interesting to bring to the public forum–especially since so many WordPress pros have the same questions. If you want to get a quick sense for what this podcast is all about and the style of it, check this out.
18. Invisible Office Hours
Invisible Office Hours has made a good splash with listeners. That said, it isn't a strictly WordPress podcast as its main focus is on talking to entrepreneurs and self-employed creatives who aren't afraid to listen to or talk about more in-your-face topics.
Unlike traditional podcasts, this one is published Netflix style. Listeners get access to a full season (or batch) of episodes published all at once, which is pretty sweet.
Each episode is about 50 – 60 minutes in length.
Anyone interested in hearing the hosts challenge the norm and discuss topics you won't likely hear covered on other podcasts. While developers and designers will get something out of this, it may be a better pick for entrepreneurs and solopreneurs who want tips that focus more on running their business.
This is the first episode of Invisible Office Hours. It gives an introduction to this unconventional podcast (i.e. talking to people who aren't confined to normal office hours). "Positivity" is the first topic discussed by the hosts. While they start by talking about bad reviews they've received from books they've published, they eventually delve into other ways in which negativity affects them and how they actively work towards more positive habits.
As WordPress professionals, you're focused on creating positive, professional, and relatable brands for your clients. But what about for your own business? This podcast will clue you into new ways in which you should think about branding and help you put aside any questions or doubts you have about creating a brand identity that's uniquely your own and pushes a few buttons.
Although you might see the title/topic of this episode and think it would be a guide to writing for the web, it's actually not. Both of these hosts are writers of non-fiction books and so the tips provided in this episode will focus solely on writing non-fiction. If you have a story to tell, if you're thinking about creating an ebook lead magnet for your website, or if you've always wanted to get into non-fiction writing, listen to this episode.
19. WordPress Weekly
WordPress Weekly is a podcast produced by WP Tavern. It's one of the newest podcasts on this list, but it's coming from WordPress pros that really know their stuff. As such, you can expect a whole host of WordPress-related topics to be covered in these episodes, especially ones that directly relate to the latest and greatest changes coming from Automattic and about to hit the WordPress core.
Episodes air every Wednesday and tend to run between 60 – 90 minutes.
WordPress developers. WordPress designers. WordPress consultants. Basically, anyone who works with WordPress professionally and wants a dedicated place to go for all the latest happening within the platform.
WPWeekly Episode 334 – Accessibility, Gutenberg, and Twenty Nineteen
With big changes on the horizon for the WordPress core–including the release of Gutenberg, a new WordPress theme, and a WooCommerce update–this episode attempts to cover it all. But rather than spout the facts, the hosts talk about how Gutenberg continues to raise serious concerns with the WordPress community and how tempers are flaring all over the place, in general.
WPWeekly Episode 333 – Interview With Mike 'Shredder' Schroder
This episode features a guest appearance by Mike Schroder, the leader and co-leader of a number of WordPress version releases. The hosts ask him about his background, what his thoughts are on the current state of WordPress, and where he sees it going in the future.
WPWeekly Episode 329 – Gutenberg, Forks, and WordPress Development Cycles
The hosts talk about the hot topic of 2018: Gutenberg. Specifically, they talk about how many WordPress users continue to use the classic editor from WordPress, some of whom have gone so far as to install a plugin to keep it in place, despite the inevitable addition of Gutenberg to core.
20. Hello, WP
A podcast from WPMU DEV, hosted by Josh and Micah Dailey. The format of the podcast is definitely one that's unique to them.
While episodes are peppered with basic concepts about WordPress — like plugins, SEO, and security — they're not afraid to dive into subject matters more tailored for WordPress professionals, like caching and the WordPress community. What's more, they conducted over 30 interviews for the 6-episode first season, each of which gives each show a greater feeling of personalization and depth.
Runtime varies — generally between 25 – 45 minutes — though the final one (which brought Matt Mullenweg in) lasted almost an hour.
While the podcast is described as one for users of all levels (especially those new to WordPress who want a deeper dive), this is truly a podcast for WordPress developers. Micah represents the segment of users who don't know a whole lot about the CMS — which is why he's the one reaching out and interviewing others to learn more. But Josh and the interviewees definitely take this into territory that's meant for those working with WordPress for a living.
Hello, Cache!
This was the original concept that inspired the whole podcast and eventually became the first episode of the season. The hosts interview Anton Vanyukov, a developer at WPMU DEV, and
Konstantinos Xenos, who handles tech support. They talk about the various types of caching, what a complicated matter it is, and how to get the best performance out of a WordPress website (outside of just caching).
Hello, Plugins!
This episode starts out, interestingly enough, with a business owner talking about bad reviews their dog grooming business received online. It then follows Micah as he talks to two people who have left reviews about WPMU DEV — one who left a 5-star review and one who left a 1-star. If you've built a plugin, theme, or WordPress website for someone and it's left a bad taste in their mouth, you should listen to this to see how WPMU DEV handled the backlash.
Hello, WordPress!
This is the last episode of the first season. Micah heads out to Nashville in December 2018 to attend WordCamp US. This is a great episode to listen to if you want to hear more from those who work within the WordPress community as well as the man who started it all: Matt Mullenweg.
21. Hallway Chats
Tara Claeys and Liam Dempsey are the hosts of the Hallway Chats podcasts. Each have a unique specialty in the WordPress space, run their own agencies, and manage local WordPress Meetups.
It's no surprise that these two WordPress entrepreneurs would set out to create a podcast that gives voice to the individuals that you might not otherwise hear about. Writers, designers, marketing professionals, and project managers — if they use WordPress in their daily lives, the hosts want to speak to them.
Each episode generally runs 30 minutes.
With many WordPress podcasts, the featured guest is usually someone you already know of and who's in heavy rotation on the WordPress speaking circuit. There's absolutely nothing wrong with listening to these titans of WordPress — their advice and stories are of great value. But Hallway Chats aims to put a spotlight on those who work with WordPress day in and day out; the people who do the heavy lifting.
If you're thinking about freelancing, or your job currently has you putting WordPress to good use, tune into this podcast to gain some insights from other doers in this space.
Episode 92: Jonathan Gilbert
Jonathan Gilbert is the Director of eCommerce and Partner Development for Qualpay, an integrated payment solution for WordPress. What's most interesting about this story is that, although his background is in business, his job still requires him to understand much of the technology behind the plugin he promotes. This podcast touches a little bit on everything — where he's from, what he does, what his thoughts are on WordPress, and more.
Episode 1: Jessica Reilley
The very first episode of the Hallway Chats episode features Jessica Reilley, a frontend WordPress developer. She talks about her discovery of WordPress over ten years ago, making a living with it, and how marriage and children factor into the equation when you're trying to do this full-time.
Episode 46: Ebonie Butler
Ebonie Butler has been immersed in technology her whole life, but it was only at the age of 30 that she decided to make the leap into formal training to become a WordPress developer. In this episode, she recounts the pain of working at jobs that were a poor fit and why it was she ultimately decided to pursue this career path.
22. Women in WP
There are amazing women making contributions to the WordPress community. Women in WP is a podcast featuring the women who blog with, design, develop, and market plugins, themes, and other tools in the WordPress community.
The bi-monthly Women in WP podcast is hosted by Amy Masson (owner of Sumy Designs, a web design company she founded in 2006 with her sister), Tracy Apps (a designer who specializes in working with WordPress), and Angela Bowman (a WordPress user active in organizing and participating in teaching events). Prior discussions have included design thinking, fundraising, career-related moves, and more.
Each episode is about 40-50 minutes long, and the topics covered are as varied as the wonderful women featured.
Anyone who wants to hear additional perspectives from those in the WordPress world will find the Women in WP content interesting.

23. Think Like a Hacker with WordFence
In 2011, Mark Maunder's WordPress site was hacked. In the process of fixing the damage and securing his site against future damage, he realized how difficult it was to do these things. These troubles were the impetus behind Maunder's co-founding of Wordfence, whose plugin protects over 3 million WordPress sites today.
In Think Like a Hacker, Mark (alongside co-host Kathy Zant) discusses topics at the intersection of WordPress, security, and innovation. Every other episode will feature interviews with practitioners in information security and WordPress, while the remaining episodes feature news-related topics.
You can expect twice-weekly episodes. The first episode of the week comes out on Tuesday or Wednesday, while the second ships on Friday.
Some episodes are shorter being around 12-minutes, while others are lengthy lasting an hour or longer.
Anyone who is interested in protecting their WordPress site or learning more about changes in the WordPress-related security arena will find Think Like a Hacker interesting. Due to the more technical nature of the topics, users with some background in security will find this knowledge helpful (though users who are relatively green in the field of security will still find the podcast informative).
Episode 35: Security Researcher Jem Turner Talks About Pipdig Scandal
Episode 35 of Think Like a Hacker with Wordfence features an interview with security researcher, Jem Turner. Turner, in conjunction with Wordfence employee Mikey Veenstra, found numerous instances of suspicious and/or malicious code in Pipdig's P3 plugin.

24. Distributed
Matt Mullenweg is the founder and CEO of Automattic, the parent company behind WordPress. His podcast, Distributed, doesn't actually focus on WordPress. Rather, it's an attempt to understand the future of work. Automattic is a 900+ employee remote company, and as one of the largest remote-only companies, they are at the forefront of understanding the upsides and downsides of having a team that is spread out around the world.
This podcast covers things like the changing of the American dream, virtual offices, distributed work, management, and creative collaboration.
Podcast episodes are about 30-40 minutes long.
Anyone who is interested in alternative working arrangements (more specifically, anything arrangement that doesn't require 40-hour work weeks in an office for the company's employees), will find this podcast useful. There are a lot of upsides with remote work, as well as downsides, and this podcast will feature perspectives from those who have navigated the challenges associated with remote work.

Episodes are about an hour in length.
If you are in the business of providing apps, tools, or services to users who power their sites with WordPress, you will find the insights shared by PressNomics guests interesting. WordPress users who handle only their sites (or a small number of sites) may not find this podcast to be as helpful.

BONUS: WordPress Themes for Podcasting
While this is not an actual podcast, SecondLineThemes are creating unique WordPress themes for podcasters, so these themes could actually power many podcasts about WordPress as well. Podcast themes for WordPress are important since it might get a little tricky to create a website for a podcast, assuming you need something beyond the simple default audio player inside blog posts.
These themes are perfect for anyone running a WordPress-based website for their podcast. WordPress experienced developers and also beginners would love those themes and some of their cool features for podcasting.

Оле́г Никола́евич Такта́ров (род. , Арзамас-16, Горьковская область, РСФСР, СССР) — российский и американский спортсмен, актёр, телеведущий, кинопродюсер, режиссёр, общественный деятель. Призёр многих спортивных турниров и соревнований. Выступал под псевдонимом «Русский медведь» ().

Проведя двадцать четыре боя по смешанным единоборствам на рингах США и Японии, Тактаров получил широкую известность, в первую очередь благодаря своей победе на  лиги Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) в 1995 году. На ринге (или в клетке) боец отличался спокойствием и мастерством захватов и болевых приёмов.

Биография
Олег Тактаров родился 26 августа 1967 года в закрытом советском городе Арзамас-16 Горьковской области (ныне — город Саров Нижегородской области), в семье служащих. Предки Олега по отцовской линии из села Березники Зубово-Полянского района Мордовии. Сам Олег считает себя марийцем.

Отец Олега, Николай Тактаров — в прошлом военнослужащий, имеющий высокий разряд по боксу. Наблюдая за тем, как сын с раннего детства зачитывался приключенческими книгами и мечтал стать актёром, но в противостояниях с одноклассниками не мог постоять за себя, отец решил отдать его в спортивную секцию самбо и дзюдо под руководством опытного тренера Виталия Карловича Михайлова в местной школе. Олег тренировался с большим усердием, выступал на различных соревнованиях. Тренер видел в своём воспитаннике большой потенциал, верил в его способности и высказывал предположение о том, что Олега ждёт будущее «мирового чемпиона».

После окончания средней школы Олег Тактаров отслужил два года в рядах советской армии: сначала — в спортивной роте, а затем — в войсках ПВО.

В 1990 году выполнил норматив мастера спорта СССР по самбо.

Являлся инструктором по боевым искусствам в структуре КГБ СССР.

В 1993 году победил в турнире «Белый дракон» по смешанным единоборствам среди любителей (не профессионалов), который проходил в Риге (Латвия).
На соревнованиях его заметили американские скауты и пригласили поучаствовать в профессиональных боях в их стране.

Был неоднократным чемпионом турниров России и Евразии по японскому искусству рукопашного боя — джиу-джитсу.

C 1990 по 1994 годы успешно занимался бизнесом в России, руководил большой компанией, о чём в 2008 году подробно рассказал в своей автобиографической книге «Победа не любой ценой, или Up.To the top».

В 1994 году уехал в США заниматься профессиональным спортом с целью заработать деньги для осуществления своей давней мечты — сниматься в голливудском кино.

В 1996 году поступил в одну из самых престижных американских актёрских театральных академий «Playhouse West» в Голливуде (г. Лос-Анджелес, штат Калифорния, США), в которой учился шесть лет, одновременно занимаясь спортивной карьерой и снимаясь в кино (с 1997 года).

Спортивная карьера

Выступления в «Ultimate Fighting Championship» (UFC)
7 апреля 1995 года Тактаров дебютировал в «Ultimate Fighting Championship» (UFC) на турнире UFC 5, проведённом в американском городе Шарлотт, штат Северная Каролина, выступая под псевдонимом The Russian Bear (). Индустрия MMA в то время только зарождалась, и зачастую турниры представляли собой поединки бойцов, представляющих только один стиль. Тактаров был представителем самбо. Несмотря на травму колена, он успешно провёл первый бой, победив удушающим приёмом. Второй бой был остановлен из-за рассечения Тактарова, и победа присуждена Дэну Северну. По словам Тактарова, он был готов продолжать бой.

В июле 1995 года Тактаров принял участие в следующем турнире − UFC 6. В полуфинале он одержал одну из самых быстрых побед в истории, проведя удушающий приём «гильотина» на 9-й секунде. Некоторые считают, что бой был спланирован заранее, так как Олег и его противник имели одного менеджера.
Финальный поединок против Дэвида «Танка» Эббота длился более 17 минут и закончился победой Тактарова удушением сзади. Это принесло Тактарову чемпионский титул, несмотря на то, что он не владел постоянным чемпионским поясом UFC.

На турнире UFC 7, проходившем в сентябре 1995 года, Тактаров боролся за титул чемпиона против Кена Шемрока. 30-минутный бой не выявил победителя, добавленные 3 минуты — тоже. Бой закончился ничьей.

16 декабря 1995 года Тактаров принял участие в турнире «The Ultimate Ultimate», собравшем лучших бойцов года в UFC. В финале он вновь встретился с Дэном Северном и по окончании 30-минутного поединка проиграл единогласным решением судей. После этого Тактаров покинул UFC.

21 ноября 2003 года на турнире UFC 45 был проведён опрос среди болельщиков для определения самых популярных бойцов в истории UFC. По результатам опроса Олег Тактаров вошёл в первую десятку.

После ухода из UFC
После ухода из UFC Тактаров участвовал в турнире «Вале Тудо», а на «Martial Arts Reality Superfighting» (MARS) встретился с представителем семьи Грейси — Рензо Грейси (Renzo Gracie).

Во время боя Рензо оказался на спине, предлагая Олегу занять защитную позицию «гард». Пытаясь захватить ногу для проведения болевого приёма, Тактаров пропустил удар ею в голову и свалился с ног. Рензо тут же нанёс сокрушительный удар кулаком в лицо Олегу. Рефери остановил бой, зафиксировав нокаут.

Олег Тактаров принял участие в первом шоу «Pride Fighting Championships», состоявшемся 11 октября 1997 года. Он встретился с канадским ветераном UFC Гари Гудриджем. Бой шёл с преимуществом Тактарова, но в один момент Гудридж нанёс ужасающий правый хук по голове Олега, в результате чего Тактаров попал в тяжёлый нокаут. Годы спустя, Тактаров, вспоминая о поражении, отмечал явную зависимость Гудриджа от анаболических стероидов. По утверждению Олега, в тот момент Гудридж находился на пике стероидного цикла.

После проведённого в 2001 году поединка Олег не участвовал в профессиональных боях вплоть до 2007 года, когда он объявил о своём желании вернуться и принял участие в турнире «BodogFIGHT: USA vs. Russia». На нём он победил американца Джона Марша (John Marsh) рычагом колена во втором раунде.

В 2008 году на турнире под эгидой «YAMMA Pit Fighting» состоялся последний бой Олега, проведённый против американца Марка Керра (Mark Kerr), который Тактаров выиграл рычагом колена.

26 марта 2012 года Олег Тактаров вместе с группой единомышленников (Ришатом Саяповым, Сергеем Шостаковым и Олегом Рожкевичем) основал и возглавлял (со дня основания до 10 июня 2016 года) Общероссийскую физкультурно-спортивную общественную организацию «Федерация смешанных боевых искусств России» (ОФСОО «Федерация СБИ России»).

Спортивный комментатор
В 2007 году Олег Тактаров попробовал себя в роли спортивного комментатора на событии «M-1 — Russia vs. Europe», проведённом российской компанией «M-1 Global». Однако, судя по отзывам зрителей, этот дебют Олега оказался неудачным: его раскритиковали за слишком пространные комментарии, мало относящиеся к самому поединку.

Актёрская карьера
Олег Тактаров с детства мечтал стать актёром и сниматься в голливудском кино. Для осуществления своей мечты в 1994 году, без гринкарты и знания английского языка, он отправился в США. Но для того чтобы стать актёром, нужны были либо деньги, либо широкая известность. С целью заработать деньги Олег решил выступать на различных соревнованиях по единоборствам. Благодаря своим выступлениям на турнире «Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC)» Тактаров стал знаменит как боец по всей Америке, особенно став чемпионом шестого турнира UFC в 1995 году. Известность помогла ему начать свою кинокарьеру.

Среди актёрских работ Тактарова — роли в фильмах: «Самолёт президента» (1997, США), «15 минут славы» (2001, США), «Роллербол» (2002, США), «44 Minutes: The North Hollywood Shoot-Out» (2003, США), Плохие парни 2 (2003, США), «Хозяева ночи» (2007, США), «Хищники» (2010, США). Также он снимался в телесериалах «Шпионка» (2003, США), «Охота на изюбря» (2005, Россия), «Морская полиция: Спецотдел» (2008, США), «Уходящая натура» (2013, Россия).

В 2017 году Олег Тактаров, по собственным словам, ответил отказом на предложение Голливуда сыграть в кино русского военнослужащего-карателя, возглавляющего группу пророссийских сепаратистов, убивающих людей на территории Донбасса. Тактаров мотивировал свой отказ низким с моральной точки зрения качеством идеи подобного кино.

Работа на телевидении
10 июня 2007 года Олег «Русский медведь» Тактаров принял участие в финальном боксёрском телешоу «Король ринга» на российском «Первом канале», проходившем в «Лужниках» (Москва). Его участие заключалось в проведении «специального боя» против Дольфа Лундгрена (вне рамок основного турнира) в подарок зрителям финала «Короля ринга». Боксёрский «супербой» проходил по тем же правилам, что и поединки участников финала телешоу: пять раундов по полторы минуты с двухминутными перерывами между ними. Бой по очкам выиграл Тактаров.

В 2009 году Тактаров выступил организатором съёмок российского реалити-шоу «Мужские игры». Девиз программы — «Всем под силу быть чемпионом». Съёмки строились вокруг группы людей (среди которых также были 2 женщины), каждый из которых ранее когда-то занимался боевыми искусствами, но потом прекратил. На момент проведения съёмок они испытывали жизненные трудности, однако ежедневные тренировки, по замыслу организаторов, позволили бы им обрести уверенность в себе и измениться к лучшему. В финале участники должны были отправиться в Лас-Вегас и принять участие в настоящем турнире по смешанным единоборствам. Шоу планировалось показать на российских телеканалах, но на момент интервью (2009 год) договорённости не было ни с одним из них. В итоге в России проект был запущен 21 мая 2009 года на интернет-канале «PostTV».

C 9 октября 2011 года по 22 января 2012 года Олег Тактаров вместе с певицей Верой Брежневой был одним из ведущих военно-патриотического телевизионного шоу «Специальное задание» на российском «Первом канале», где им были отведены роли «специальных агентов», ведущих в проекте свою игру и обладающих огромной властью над судьбами армейских новобранцев. Задача «специальных агентов» заключалась в оказании постоянного психологического воздействия на новобранцев посредством подписания с некоторыми из них индивидуальных контрактов на выполнение того или иного «теневого» задания.

Общественная деятельность
В 2011 году Олег Тактаров решил вернуться в Нижегородскую область, в родной город Саров, и заняться общественной деятельностью. В октябре 2011 года он был назначен на должность советника по вопросам спорта главы администрации Нижнего Новгорода Олега Кондрашова.

Личная жизнь
Первая жена — Милена, с которой Тактаров прожил пять лет. От первого брака у Олега есть сын Сергей.

Вторая жена — Кэтлин, американка, работала начальником тюрьмы строгого режима. Олег и Кэтлин познакомились после одного из его немногочисленных поражений на ринге. Она оказала бойцу поддержку и помогла выйти из психологического кризиса, после чего они стали встречаться. Есть сын Китон. Олег и Кэтлин расстались из-за несовместимости характеров.

Третья жена — Мария, россиянка. От третьего брака у Тактарова есть сын Никита.

A long night of unpleasant surprises for Huskies
By Dan Raley September 8, 2019 8 Comments6 Mins Read
TE Hunter Bryant had to chase down an interception of Huskies QB Jacob Eason by Camryn Bynum. / Drew Sellers, Sportspress Northwest
At 1:22 a.m., the ordeal came to an end.
Husky Stadium, the scene of one of the most unusual Washington football games in its storied history, emptied out early Sunday morning not unlike some university nightclub or frat party at closing time. Senses were deadened. Hangovers were coming.
Those that braved the elements — and fewer than half of the announced 66,327 paid attendance stuck around following an agonizing 2-hour, 39-minute lightning delay — were left to mull a few stark developments while searching for their cars in the darkness.
Climate change is real.
Coach Chris Petersen's sixth UW team is likely rebuilding rather than reloading.
More surprising than the prolonged battering handed out by Mother Nature was the scoreboard outcome: The heavily favored Huskies lost to the California Golden Bears 20-19 (box) on a last-second field goal. They lost to ex-UW assistant coach Justin Wilcox's team for the second consecutive year. And they lost at home, for just the second time in 22 outings.
Washington's weaknesses were exposed for all to see. Replacing nine defensive starters from 2018 has left Peterson searching for new playmakers. None stepped forward against Cal.
This was particularly evident when the Bears, after falling behind 19-17 following Peyton Henry's clutch 49-yard field goal with just 2:05 remaining, methodically marched 75 yards for a response, Greg Thomas' 17-yard chip-shot kick with eight seconds left.
"Guys were out of position," Petersen concluded of the defensive effort. "From the naked eye, it was more tackles than we've missed in a while."
The Huskies receiving corps, as it did the season before, disappeared once more against a topflight secondary. Again, playmakers were lacking when needed most. Three guys dropped Jacob Eason passes delivered on the mark. Andre Baccellia hauled in a third-quarter ball in the Cal end zone but couldn't get a foot down in bounds, leaving the UW to settle for Henry's 22-yard field goal and a 13-10 lead.
Eason was not nearly as sharp as he was in his debut last week against Eastern Washington, a lesser opponent. While completing 18 of 30 passes for 162 yards, the Georgia transfer threw an interception to Cal's Camryn Bynum, blunting a second-quarter scoring drive, and he fumbled the ball away in the same period after getting hit from behind by elite LB Evan Weaver, who led all tacklers with 18.
"We just couldn't finish," summed up C Nick Harris, showing no after-effects of a leg injury that knocked him out of the opener.
On this night, the Huskies and Bears barely got started when it seemed as if something resembling Hurricane Dorian consumed the city. No Sharpies were needed to verify the surprising storm's course. It made a direct hit on Seattle.
Just 11 plays, amounting to an offensive series for each team and no scores, were run following the 7 p.m. kickoff before the ferocious weather rolled in and the stadium was cleared. Lightning flashed all around the metal facility, though there were no direct hits. Fans huddled tightly in concourse areas. Monsoon rain pelted the field.
UW players spent the next 159 minutes holed up in their locker room. They watched other games on TV. They stretched. They resumed play at 10:30 p.m.
"We were talking with each other and relaxing," defensive back Myles Bryant said. "We were still doing stuff to get ready. We wanted to come back out with an edge."
Twenty-three minutes into the restart and early in the second quarter, Henry gave the Huskies a 3-0 lead with a 36-yard field goal. The drive stalled when Eason left the field for a play after a short run and backup Jacob Sirmon was sacked. It was 10:53 p.m.
Two possessions later, the UW went up 10-0 on Salvon Ahmed's 21-yard scoring burst over the right side. He juked Cal's Ashtyn Davis at the line of scrimmage and raced in untouched. Ahmed led all rushers with 119 yards on 21 carries. The night was still young — it was 11:13 p.m.
However, Cal settled in and put together its first scoring drive, getting on the board with Thomas' 23-yard field goal to pull within 10-3. The teams broke for a 15-minute halftime, not really in need of another rest. It was 11:37 p.m.
The Huskies defense looked vulnerable at times. The front line was physically pushed off the ball as Cal piled up 192 yards rushing, 80 by starting RB Christopher Brown and 72 by backup Marcel Dancy. UW linebackers Brandon Wellington and Joe Tryon were badly fooled on running plays, whiffing on tackles.
Cal took the second-half kickoff and appeared more energized, coming up with an equalizing score on Dancy's 23-yard run. The speedy back broke tackles by Benning Potoa'e and Cameron Williams to make it 10-10. The clock struck midnight.
Washington settled for a Henry field goal when Baccellia couldn't stay in bounds on his end-zone catch, but Cal responded with a Dancy TD run from eight yards as the third quarter pulled to a close. It was 12:26 a.m. and Cal led 17-13.
Early in the fourth quarter, the Huskies squandered a big opportunity to take control. On fourth-and-1 at the Cal 2, they went for it with a power package. As Eason called the signals, sophomore TE Corey Luciano flinched and drew a false-start penalty. Mental mistake. Drive over. The UW settled for another Henry field goal and still trailed at 17-16. It was 12:44 a.m.
"That changed things right there," Petersen conceded. "We were going to go for it."
Thereafter, the late-game kickoff settled things. Henry, who reputation suffered mightily after he missed a potential game-winner the year before at Oregon, coolly stepped up and curled his 49-yarder inside the right upright to put the Huskies up 19-17 and set off a brief on-field celebration. But there were still over two minutes left. It was 1:04 a.m.
Cal was up to the challenge. Sophomore quarterback Chase Garbers calmly moved his team 74 yards in nine plays, exploiting UW weaknesses. In consecutive plays, he drew a pass-interference call on Huskies sophomore CB Kyler Gordon at the 30 and hit WR Kekoa Crawford with a 27-yard pass over the middle to the Huskies 3.
A slight breeze wafted through the stadium as the Bears' Thomas took two steps to set up, swung his arms back and forth and easily split the uprights for the game-winning points.
The Huskies ran two plays, the clock ran out and the home team couldn't get off the field quick enough, looking a little stunned. Senior LT Trey Adams was the last to go up the tunnel, walking slowly with his head down and his jersey rolled halfway up his chest.
Fast approaching was 2 a.m. Adams' team had survived the storm, not the football battle.

"Rebuilding rather than reloading" sums it up. ugh. I won"t point fingers because they are in a fist against my temples….rubbing not pounding…at least today.

Replacing nine starters on defense was a taller order than many realized.
Husky73 on September 8, 2019 7:01 pm
I didn't think they'd go undefeated. They'll have a good season.
What is a good season: 7-5?
Husky73 on September 10, 2019 11:37 am
A good season would be defined by wins over Oregon and Washington State. The Boy Scout will win games. He always does (140-34).
Tian Biao on September 8, 2019 8:14 pm
thanks for sticking it out there, Dan! a fine description of a very strange game . .
Dan and his colleagues deserve at least a round of cocktails for service above and beyond the call.
jafabian on September 10, 2019 1:03 am
A learning experience for Eason. The defense had problems early on so in that instance the offense needs to keep the pressure on. Not sure if the clock management by Coach Petersen in the closing minutes would have made a difference but I thought he should have called time out sooner.

Today is the world of privatization; every organization makes their own rules and regulations for the sake of their profit. Mid while many of the employees face many of the situations which may be seem as their overexploitation in name of employment. The laws and procedures provide great help to them and provide them great prevention from the exploitation. Some of the laws are being made especially for the employees at workplace for their rights and prevention like labor acts, workmen compensations acts, provident fund acts, etc.
Any of the economic loss occurred to the employees in past as well as in present is to be compensated by the employer.
The medical expenses incurred for the injury to the employees should be essentially compensated by the employer to employees.
The health insurance payment expenses are to be bear by the employers for the injured employees in case of major injury.
In case of death of the employee certain major benefits that has to be provided to the employees' dependents and family along with the other expenses.
Compensation differs in several cases on the basis how severe injury has been caused to the employee due to employer's negligence. Any of the employees are not able to get sufficient benefits of the workmen compensation act due to absence of their right and laws for their claim. Employer too makes an extra advantage of it and prevents himself from the payment.
These laws are not been enacted to help out the employees only but also for the sake of employers, as in many cases the injured employee may demand more than the genuine expense. The laws prevent them from extra payment. Hiring workers compensation attorneys salt lake city is essential as they are professionally qualified in this field and knows all terms and laws in this regard. They can only provide employee the right kind of guidance and make them to avail the maximum compensation which can be made available or them. The workers then can be prevented from being exploited at least in case of receiving the reimbursement for their loss.

Q: How to Fetch shared secret key for auto-renewable inapp purchase? I am implementing Auto-renewable InApp purchase. As far as my knowledge the SHARED_SECRET_KEY that is begin provided on iTunes connect is for individual user account. And that is being used when verifying receipt In that case I can't use it as static #Define var.
I also didn't find it in SKPaymentTransaction object.
How can i fetch it for individual user as we get receipt_data for particular user.

A: Actually, as far as I know, SHARED_SECRET_KEY is not used for individual user account, but for the application itself.
You need to verify receipt when transaction Status is SKPaymentTransactionStatePurchased with the active transaction (SKPaymentTransaction) in payment queue.
When I was implementing inapp purchasing, my main confusion was to fetch information about a particular user just like you. I am saving information about my purchases, so at startup I can refresh about the user. Also restoring is another method I can suggest for supporting multiple devices (up to 5) of a user.

Is The Hulk A Coward?
So, as you know, in Avengers: Infinity War, the Hulk took a pop at Thanos early in the film, catching him off-guard for a moment. Thanos, a far more powerful being than him, then beat him up easily.
Afterwards, the Hulk refused to appear. What surprised me is how quickly the Hulk gave up, and how genuinely scared he was of appearing. That seems counter to the Hulk's nature (after all, he's been beaten up before).
Was it the intention of the film makers to portray Hulk as a coward, who was scared to come out to fight Thanos?

Related. I'm sure I've seen this question before too but can't seem to find it. – TheLethalCarrot May 10 '18 at 13:29
FWIW I didn't think he was scared, I thought he was pouting. In the MCU Hulk is decidedly childish, and he always wins. Getting his first real loss has made him throw a tantrum, essentially. – Dave Johnson May 10 '18 at 13:36
I feel like you are assuming cowardice, we don't know for certain why he wouldn't come out. – Jack B Nimble May 10 '18 at 13:36
"he's been beaten up before" — not like this, really. – Paul D. Waite May 15 '18 at 16:58
No; he's taking a stand against being used for fighting only
Banner and Hulk have a complex relationship. This has been explored and developed in the Marvel Cinematic Universe:
Avengers 1: Banner must learn to control The Hulk
Avengers 2: The Hulk realises he's being used and that he's seen as a monster, decides to hijack his being and runs off to Sakaar
Thor: Ragnarok: The Hulk gains his independence and learns what he likes
Avengers 3: Banner must learn to hold his own without The Hulk
In Avengers: Infinity War when The Hulk refuses to "come out", Banner remarks:
Me and you have some things to work out buddy.
This is the clue we have toward the actual reasoning behind The Hulk's refusal to fight. Admittedly, even I thought that it was because he was finally scared because of Thanos (there were a few remarks in the cinema too "ah, he's scared"). However, Joe Russo (co-director of Infinity War) has commented recently that it's because The Hulk doesn't want to be used for fighting anymore:
I think people have interpreted it as Hulk's scared. I mean, certainly, that's not... I don't know that the Hulk is ever (scared). He's had his ass kicked before, and he loves a good fight. But I think that it's really reflective of the journey from (Thor) Ragnarok... These two characters are constantly in conflict with each other over control. And I think that if the Hulk were to say why, it'd be (because) Banner only wants Hulk for fighting. I think he's had enough of saving Banner's ass.
-SyFy, WHAT'S UP WITH THAT HULK-BRUCE BANNER STANDOFF? INFINITY WAR'S JOE RUSSO SAYS HULK HAS 'HAD ENOUGH OF SAVING BANNER'S ASS', 2018-05-08, by Benjamin Bullard
Endgame Evidently, Hulk and Banner complete this arc in the most spectacular manner, they blend into one as Professor Hulk.
It seems that Banner comes to grips with Hulk, and Hulk accepts Banner. This seems to have made them into a cohesive whole, rather than two incoherent extremes.
To be honest, I can't find the original source of that Russo quote, but it's been corroborated in the following articles:
MöozMöoz
Very interesting character development... too bad they didn't make it clear enough in the movie... I hope it will be more explicit in Avenger 4 – dna May 14 '18 at 7:23
Thank you very much for a brilliant answer. I've chosen it. – White Prime May 14 '18 at 9:06
The original source for the Russo quote was the Happy Sad Confused podcast of 6 May as indicated on this Inverse.com article. The Russo bothers may have spoken about this in other interviews, but this at least can be counted as a primary source. – user71418 May 14 '18 at 10:08
This has clearly been dealt with in two parts.
"A lot of people had interpreted that the Hulk was scared of Thanos. The Hulk has had his ass kicked before, and so it wasn't like the minute he gets his ass kicked he's going to run and hide. It's really the notion that the Hulk and Banner have a very dysfunctional relationship, which was explored even further in Thor: Ragnarok. And I think that relationship is starting to strain between the two of them and the Hulk is not interested in playing the hero to Banner anymore," Joe Russo said. "I don't know if the Hulk sees the value in the relationship. They both want to control Hulk's body. The Hulk brings fighting and strength to the table and he's not quite sure what Banner is bringing yet. So, I think this is becoming a stubborn push and pull between two very despaired personalities stuck in one body."
So it's very clear. The Hulk doesn't show up because he does not want to play by Banner's rules anymore.
In Avengers: Endgame, Professor Hulk tells us that he and Hulk share the body now rather than fighting for control.
Professor Hulk: Five years ago, we got our asses beat. Except it was worse for me. Because I lost twice. First, Hulk lost, then Banner lost. Then, we all lost.
Natasha: No one blamed you, Bruce.
Professor Hulk: I did. For years, I've been treating the Hulk like he's some kind of disease, something to get rid of. But then I started looking at him as the cure. Eighteen months in a gamma lab. I put the brains and the brawn together. And now look at me. Bets of both worlds...
This furthers the explanation about Avengers: Infinity War, since it clearly indicates that there indeed was a strife between Hulk and Banner, and Hulk clearly did not like the way their arrangement worked.

Solar energy is created by the heat and light of the sun. Solar power is produced when this energy is captured by solar panels, then converted into electricity or used to heat air, water, or other substances.
Australia has the highest average solar radiation per square metre of any continent in the world, and we're starting to take advantage. Large-scale solar electricity is rapidly expanding in Australia, and – according to the Australian Renewable Energy Agency – more than two million Australian households currently have a solar power system on their rooftop.
How do we capture solar energy?
Currently there are two different ways we capture solar electricity for homes, businesses, farms, towns and cities.
The first and most common form of solar energy capture is photovoltaic. Sunlight hits a silicon cell in a solar panel, which converts the sunlight to electricity. An inverter changes the direct current generated by solar panels into alternating current for use in everyday applications.
The second way to create solar energy is with a solar thermal plant. Solar thermal uses the heat generated by sunlight to evaporate water into steam that drives a turbine. Direct current from the turbine is then changed into alternating current via an inverter. The world's largest solar thermal plant is currently being built just outside Port Augusta in South Australia.
Solar energy has made leaps and bounds in efficiency over the last 10 years. Commercially produced silicon solar cells achieve roughly 18-20% efficiency in converting solar energy into electricity. The most efficient solar panel available on the market is capable of a 22.5% conversion. In 2017, Australian scientists claimed to have created solar PV cells with an efficiency of 34.5%.
How much does a solar power system cost to install?
According to the Alternative Energy Association, the average cost of a fully installed 2.0kW system in 2013 was roughly $4,400. Developments in technology have driven capacity up and costs down, and in 2018 a 5kw system costs between $4,000 and $10,000 depending on where in Australia you live.
It may seem like an expensive investment, but right system could result in long-term savings.

Q: Opencv Black Image only on Raspberry The regular check for opencv works fine on the buster desktop with
 cv2.imshow('frame',frame)

This code works also fine on ubuntu and mac os
import cv2
import io
import numpy as np
import tornado.httpserver
import tornado.web

from PIL import Image, ImageDraw
from tornado.ioloop import IOLoop

class HandlerCameraIMG(tornado.web.RequestHandler):

    byte_io = io.BytesIO()

    def get(self):
    cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
    ret, frame = cap.read()
    img_rgb = cv2.cvtColor(frame, cv2.COLOR_BGR2RGB)
    jpg = Image.fromarray(img_rgb)
    self.byte_io.seek(0)
    jpg.save(self.byte_io, format="JPEG")
    s = self.byte_io.getvalue()
    self.set_header('Content-type', 'image/jpeg')
    self.set_header('Content-length', len(s))
    self.write(s)
    return

html_index = """
Camera

            """

class IndexPageHandler(tornado.web.RequestHandler):
    def get(self):
    self.write(html_index)

class WebApplication(tornado.web.Application):
    def __init__(self):
    handlers = [
        (r"/", IndexPageHandler),
        (r'/img/camera.jpeg', HandlerCameraIMG)
    ]
    settings = {'debug': True}
    tornado.web.Application.__init__(self, handlers, **settings)

def main():
    ws_app = WebApplication()
    server = tornado.httpserver.HTTPServer(ws_app)
    server.listen(9090)
    IOLoop.instance().start()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

It does give back a black camera.jpeg on a rapsberry pi 3 with raspian buster
Is there any explainable reason for that ?

A: There seem to be some problems with indentation in your code, and also an unnecessary dependency on PIL/Pillow and on BytesIO so I removed that and added some error checking and debugging hints and it seems to work fine - maybe you can have another try:
#!/usr/bin/env python3

import cv2
import numpy as np
import tornado.httpserver
import tornado.web

from tornado.ioloop import IOLoop
from tornado.options import define, options

class HandlerCameraIMG(tornado.web.RequestHandler):

    def get(self):
        cap = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
        if (cap.isOpened()== False):
            print("Error opening video stream or file")

        ret, frame = cap.read()
        if not ret:
            print("Error reading video")
        else:
            print(f"Frame size: {frame.shape}")

        _, JPEG = cv2.imencode('.jpeg', frame, [int(cv2.IMWRITE_JPEG_QUALITY), 70])
        self.set_header('Content-type', 'image/jpeg')
        self.set_header('Content-length', len(JPEG))
        self.write(JPEG.tobytes())
        return
