I agree that it’s tough to truly grok technical material in purely audio format. With that said, I think you can learn a ton by learning about the history, trends, and other software companies. Here are some of my favorites: The Dream Machine Hackers: Heroes of the Computer a Revolution How the Internet Happened The Soul of a New Machine AI Superpowers Platform Revolution The Everything Store
