A new Laravel-centric podcast has started up and has posted its first episode: LaraChat Live. Their first recording if from a Google Hangout of a roundtable with host Shawn Mayzes and several other community members from the LaraChat Slack channel

Larachat Live is a live round table discussion from the Larachat community. We discuss PHP and Laravel as well as various other industry related topics.

This weeks discussion (our first round table) will include introductions from community members and our meet & greet outside of Larachat.co. This weekly round table will also include our discussion on PHPMD and PHPCS.

You can watch this episode either using the in-page video player or directly on YouTube. If you enjoy the show and want to keep up with future episodes, subscribe to their YouTube channel and you'll be notified as new videos are published (and when new shows are coming up).

The Laravel News site has been a good source for Laravel-related happenings and updates for that portion of the community. They've announced an expansion to their offerings today with the addition of a new podcast with updates about the Laravel community and ecosystem over the past few weeks.

I’m happy to announce a new Laravel News Podcast and the first two episodes are now live. My co-host on this podcast is Jack Fruh and the goal is to discuss some of the highlights of the news over the past few weeks. The current goal is to create an episode every other week.

They've posted the first two episodes already featuring Eric and Jack talking about things like:

• Laravel Spark
• The Diffie-Hellman Fix
• Laravel Model Factories
• Laravel Accessors and Mutators

You can listen to these first two episodes either through the in-page audio player or you can subscribe in iTunes to get these and future shows as they're released.

Adam Culp, well-known PHP community member and organizer of both the Sunshine PHP conference and ZendCon, has started up a new podcast that's targeted at blending the two things he enjoys most - geeky "stuff" and running.

My plans behind the podcast is to bring together two things I love to do…programming, and running. It only makes sense that I would want to share in both areas, and a podcast is a great way to do that. With the resurgence of podcasts lately I felt a little bit of peer pressure to attempt my own, and so far I have received wonderful reviews from PHP developers who also run, or runners who are also programmers.

You can find out more about the show over on rungeekradio.com or just tune in to the first episode and see what you think. This first show deals with conferences, user group talks and performance audit tools. If you enjoy the show, be sure to subscribe to the feed to get more episodes as they're released.

A new podcast has joined the list of things for your PHP-related listening pleasure, the Sound of Symfony podcast. This new show, hosted by Magnus Nordlander and Tobias Nyholm, focuses in on the Symfony ecosystem and things that revolve around it. They're already posted their first episode too - Episode 1 - The one where we're audio production noobs.

In our first episode, coming to you straight from a small conference room in Stockholm, Sweden, we go through the news, interview a prominent community member, and run through the conference calendar for the year. Of course, since this is our first episode, it has some mandatory audio production mistakes, we're sorry about those. Nothing too horrible, you might not even hear it, but we'll always know it's there, and we'll make sure to do better next month!

You can listen to this first episode through the in-page player or you can just subscribe to their feed and get this and future shows as they're released.

As Konstantin Kudryashov points out in his latest post, a new PHP-related podcast has started up hosted by him and Mathias Verraes called the Elephant in the Room. Their inaugural episode is titled Design is Hard

We decided at the PHPNW13 conference to start a PHP podcast. In our very first podcast episode ever, we discuss the importance of design. And, because we might as well start with a bang, we talk about caching and naming things as well. We’re all over the place.

You can download the full episode from the Elephant in the Room site and get some links to things mentioned in the show.

The first episode of a new PHP-related podcast, the "PHP Podcast" produced by Zend, has been released. This first episode, hosted by Joe Stagner features a well-known PHPer, Cal Evans.

Cal Evans has been referred to as “The Ubiquitous Face of the PHP Community”. That’s made Cal an obvious choice for the first guest on the PHPPodcast. In this episode we chat about the evolving face of the PHP community.
