Podcasts are a great way to gain new knowledge on a long commute or while you\u2019re doing tasks around the house that don\u2019t require your full attention. The good news (and bad news) is there is a wealth of podcasts about product management to pick from. To help you narrow your choices, here is a selection of podcasts that all feature discussions with people who do product management, or help others do it.<\/p>\n
This Is Product Management.<\/b> Mike Fishbein hosts the This Is Product Management<\/a> podcast , which is produced by Alpha. Each episode features a practicing product person describing their experiences focused around a certain aspect of product management with summarizations from Mike interspersed throughout. One episode you may want to listen to features Gayle Laakmann McDowell describing how career advancement is product management<\/a>.<\/p>\n (via @tipmpodcast<\/a>)<\/p>\n The Product Science Podcast<\/b> \u201cThe Product Science Podcast<\/a> is for startup founders and product leaders building high-growth products, teams, and companies.\u201d Holly Hester-Reily shares her conversations with product people about the lessons they\u2019ve learned (and the mistakes they\u2019ve made) working in product. Each episode centers around a hypothesis that the product person made about product management based on their experiences. One episode you may want to listen to features Rich Mironov\u2019s hypothesis that great product leadership is both subtle and slow to pay off<\/a>.<\/p>\n (via @h2rproductsci<\/a>)<\/p>\n Inside Intercom.<\/b> The folks at Intercom produce a set of podcasts<\/a> that provide insight into how they operate as a company as well as a broader perspective on digital business from their own experiences and what they observe. These podcasts include series on sales, scaling, and of course product. One episode you may want to listen to features Des Traynor (Co-Founder) and Paul Adams (SVP of Product) talking about rethinking outcomes over outputs<\/a>.<\/p>\n (via @intercom<\/a>)<\/p>\n 100 PM. <\/b>Suzanne Abate came up with the idea for 100 PM at the close of a product management course she taught. She realized she was answering the same questions over and over again and thought it would be very helpful to have a variety of perspectives to answer those repeated questions. The 100 PM podcast<\/a> is the result of her effort to talk to 100 practicing product people to get their perspectives and learn about their experiences. One episode you may want to listen to is Suzanne\u2019s discussion with Margaret Jastrebski about learning on the job.<\/a><\/p>\n (via @100productmgrs<\/a>)<\/p>\n Small Business and Startup Stories. <\/b>\u00a0There\u2019s a lot of product work that goes on outside of Silicon Valley and Silicon Alley, including places such as Cleveland, Ohio and Des Moines, Iowa. Mike Colwell hosts the Small Business and Startup Stories DSM<\/a> podcast that features conversations with entrepreneurs who share both their victories and failures on their paths to success. This is a great way to hear about the experiences of people starting businesses and working on products outside of the usual entrepreneurial hotbeds.

Rocketship.fm is hosted by Michael Sacca and our own Mike Belsito. The podcast features topics of interest to product people including a look inside of startups, and stories of product failures. One episode you may want to listen to features Catherine Ulrich talking about the six (or seven) types of Product Managers<\/a>, advantages and disadvantages each face and the type of product each is best suited to lead.<\/p>\n (via @rocketshipfm<\/a>)<\/p>\n Product Love. <\/b>If you like digging in on all-things-product\u2026 then you\u2019ll love <\/span>Product Love<\/span><\/a>.
