A while ago I used to listen to the Linux outlaws which covered a lot of gtopics in Linux and FOSS. The show has discontinued and I’m looking for your recommendations.

What podcasts do you listen to, and what do you like about them?

Jupiter Broadcasting has nice Linux and FOSS-related podcasts. Most recently with an episode about Red Hat and their decisions.

This one specifically.

I enjoy their shows but the singsong way Wes talks really bothers me for some reason.

Edit: I just got through the episode. It is pretty disappointing, and doesn’t answer to all of the criticisms, specifically those against the restrictive customer agreements that violate the free software definition (freedom 2). The aggressive stance echoes Bill Gates’ letter to hobbyists so closely, it was in the blog posts, it’s in the employee they have in the episode. Would be nice to have someone from the FSF or the Software Freedom Conservancy

Not putting in extra work is fine, restricting the rights of your users is shitty.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
