Wow, thank you for the Overcast recommendation. The UX is indeed great. A small thing I especially love is that, while you need to "create an account" to use it, you can do so on mobile without having to hand over an email address and create a password. Hallelujah.

Overcast is written by one guy - Marco Arment. He was the first developer for Tumbler and was over development for a little while. He went on to create Instapaper and sold it and Overcast was his second major project.

He also has a few podcasts, but my favorite is Accidental Tech Podcast. He cohosts it with John Siracusa - the guy who wrote the book size overviews of the first 10 versions of iOS 10 for Engadget - and Casey Liss.

I'm pretty sure you mean he wrote the book size overviews for the first 10 versions of (mac)OS( X) and he did it for Ars Technica.
Yeah that....
