I was also a fan of destroy all software screencasts, and found them incredibly useful in leveling up as a ruby developer. I've recently subscribed to Ruby Tapas http://www.rubytapas.com/, which I find similar to DAS in topic selection and quality.

Thanks for the link. I'll check it out.

I personally have mixed feelings about Avdi Grimm's approach. Some of his small tweaks are brilliant. Others feel to me like OO going totally overboard for no good reason. That's where I identify more with Gary Bernhardt's views. In that sense, DAS is perhaps much harder to replace.
