Another episode of Django Riffs is live. This time around, we look at middleware, its impact on your projects, how to write your own, and a discussion of some of the built-in middleware from Django.

I finally got to listen to the latest episode and now I am regretting now trying this podcast soonerā€¦ It is really good and although not everything is new since I am using Django more in a hobby capacity it is great in filling the gaps in my understanding of its important parts.

Thanks!

Thatā€™s great! Iā€™m glad it can help you fill in some gaps that you might have. Thanks for the encouragement! :grin:

Just wanted to say: Iā€™ve really enjoyed all the eps so far. Some gave me a couple of minor things I found useful, others made me think more, and the way youā€™ve synchronised the podcast with the blog is really good - I can listen on the go, then check in on the website later if there was something I didnā€™t quite get.

The middleware one I found particularly useful :slight_smile:

Anyway - thanks!

Thanks you! It makes my day when someone shares a comment like this. Iā€™m hoping to record another episode today so Iā€™ll try to keep the content coming. :smile:

I put out another episode of Django Riffs that looks into deployment and how to take a Django site live on the internet.

Yay. I heard them all and I have been looking forward to deployment episode

I havenā€™t heard the most recent one, as Iā€™d missed it until now, but Iā€™ve listened to all of the rest. Itā€™s all stellar in my opinion, this together with the Laravel Podcast (specifically season 4) is the best audio material I know of when it comes to learning web frameworks/MVC.

A small note is that you ask for listeners to write reviews on Spotify, amongst other platforms. When I tried looking into it though I found that Spotify doesnā€™t have any podcast review or rating system. I guess Iā€™d have to look the podcast up through iTunes or something to write a review.

Anyway, thanks again for all the great explanations!

Thatā€™s very kind of you to say!

Thanks for the notification about Spotifyā€™s lack of ratings and reviews. I guess I assumed that the Spotify platform would include that feature. I might leave the ending as is for now in the hopes that theyā€™ll have a rating system someday. :slight_smile:

Just started listening. The first episode was very good. Looking forward to listening to the other ones.
I heard it on Google Podcasts, it unfortunately does not have an option for leaving a review so Iā€™m leaving my feedback here.

Thanks, @PRB! I hope you find the other episodes useful.
