You probably already know what the top podcasts are in each domain, so my hope is to give some spotlight to the up-and-comers. (These podcasts may not have started in 2021, but they are new to me this year).
Without further ado:
Best New Tech Podcasts in 2021
Corecursive - Adam Gordon Bell: really fascinating interviews with tech OG's. Many stories that have never been told. Regularly tops Hacker News. I still have the Apple 2001 episode saved.
Sourcegraph - Beyang Liu: In depth founder/engineer interviews from the CTO of Sourcegraph, exploring his own personal curiosity. Personal pick: David Cramer of Sentry.
Masters of Community - David Spinks: Truly one of the top 3 best resources on learning to build/manage community on the planet. Personal picks: Jon Levy and Matthew Kobach
Brains - Courtland Allen and Julian Shapiro: Still new, but great discussions from two of the most thoughtful creators out there, in an interesting 4-player format. Personal pick: Sam Parr and Aella
Not Overthinking - Abdaal Brothers: Ali Abdaal getting the piss taken out of him by his surprisingly attractive older brother is just amazing.
I had these podcasts lined up for my end of year lists, but they also died this year so I can't continue to recommend them. However, they have some backlogs worth digging through:
Software Social: Michele has now pulled off a book launch (I liked it) and Colleen now has a job! It has been fun to follow along.
Writing Excuses: Brandon Sanderson hasn't swung by in forever, but the tips have continued flowing! I liked the episode on Audiobooks and they had some good stuff on MICE and Game/Worldbuilding.

Context
In 2019 I published the list of podcasts I listen to, and last year I updated it with newer podcasts, so I'm continuing that tradition this year!
The big difference is that I now run a daily mixtape which clips from all the podcasts I listen to, so you get a live "best of" feed from me if you subscribe. I also run my own infrequent YouTube podcast and am a panelist on Svelte Radio.
Good But Dead
