Data visualization podcasts 2025
Data visualization podcasts for 2025
At Baryon, we love a good podcast—especially when it’s about data visualization. They’re a great way to pick up new ideas, hear how others approach design and storytelling, and stay in touch with what’s happening in the field. Whether it’s a deep dive into visual communication, a fresh take on data exploration, or a candid chat about the challenges of bringing complex information to life, there’s always something to learn (and plenty to get inspired by).
Many shows feature conversations with people doing remarkable work—sometimes the big names you already know, sometimes voices you haven’t heard yet but will be glad you did.
Some of our go-tos are Data Stories, Storytelling with Data, and Data Viz Today, but there’s a whole world of great listening out there.
We’ve pulled together a regularly updated list of our favorite data visualization (and data science) podcasts on Notion. You’ll find them all in one place, with links to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Google Podcasts—ready for your next walk, commute, or coffee break.
