On March 26th, 2021, I released my first episode as host of The HackerNoon Podcast. 

All thanks to you, what I thought would be a fun project for a few episodes turned into one of the largest projects of my career as a Content Creator.

We released over 90 podcast episodes in 1 year, and I couldn't have done it without you and your support!

Without further ado, let’s take a lil’ throwback to the top 5 episodes of The HackerNoon Podcast over the past year.

#1. What is Web 3.0 and Why Do We Need It?

This is an episode I recorded with Jaro Šatkevic, the Head of Product at Mysterium Network, where we talked about Web3.0.

We released this episode right after the 30th anniversary of the first webpage, which felt very appropriate.


#2. How Decentralized Can We Get in the Modern World?

This was the very first episode I released! It was with Sharmini Ravindran, the CMO at Mysterium Network.

We talked about the implications of a decentralized internet for the world, world news and censorship, and more. If you listen back to this one, sorry for the nerves. We’ve come a long way y’all. 😅


#3. Demystifying DeFi, DEXs, and AMMs With AllianceBlock Team

On this episode of The HackerNoon Podcast, our super business human Utsav was the host. He chatted to some super cool people from AllianceBlock about DeFi and DEXs.

Rachid Ajaja (CEO), Houman Falakshahi (CRO), and Matthieu Mariapragassam (Head of Quantitative Analytics) were the guests on this episode.


#4. Media Conglomerates Are Taking Over The World

This was an episode of the podcast where we discussed what went down This Week On Planet Internet. David, Utsav, and I discussed the world of big media conglomerates - think Facebook, Disney, Comcast, ATT - and how they rule the world.

This seems like a VERY KEY discussion again now that Elon wants to take over Twitter.


#5. Document Databases Vs. Relational Databases

On this episode, I talked to Eric Bishard and Arun Vijayaraghavan from Couchbase about the differences between a Document Database and a Relational Database.

LOL, guys, can I make a confession to you? I distinctly remember recording this episode and watching a YouTube tutorial to prep for the episode to figure out how to say JSON out loud. Again, wow, we’ve come a long way 😂


Hackers, I’m grateful for the opportunity to talk about how technology relates to gender equality, world relations, wealth disparity, and more. But most of all, I’m so honoured to be your host, and I love y’all so much. 💚

Stay weird and I'll see ya on the internet,

Amy Tom
