Rather Listen than Read? Podcast Recommendations from Top Virginia Executives

We know that leaders are readers, but increasingly, leaders are listeners! We asked for podcast recommendations from the VACEOs community. Comment and share your favorites.


P.D. Love, president of CRC, shared a bunch.

These keep my commute, walking and other listening time full. Haven’t needed the radio in years!!


I love This American Life. It’s exceptional and very eclectic. Funny, touching, educational, inspiring, and always interesting, it’s a roll of the dice!

Bryant Harrison, Seventh Wall


I listen to a lot of podcasts but here are the 5 I rarely miss. – Robin Green, Sandler

  1. All In — Four Silicon Valley buddies who rif, argue, and cover big topics in tech and politics.
  2. No Laying Up – all that is happening in the world of golf. A group of college buddies who have irreverent takes on the golf world. 
  3. History That Doesn’t Suck – history made interesting. 
  4. The Learning Leader – interesting topics from authors and thought-leaders.
  5. Acquired – Deep dive stories of industry titans. These are like books – but fascinating backstories on top companies. 

I never miss an episode of The 21 Hats Podcast. Loren Feldman, whose business journalism experience includes Inc.com, New York Times, and Forbes, convenes a panel of small business owners for frank discussion and experience sharing on a question or topic. It’s almost like a public CEO Roundtable. Loren also curates a daily newsletter and some events. He’s worth following.
