A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Great podcast to keep up with the latest Linux news in a compact and easy-going way. Great hosts with great chemistry.

Burningtime · Apr 2022

With the departure of the Ubuntu Podcast there is a need for an English language Linux podcast that has a calm Hibernian vibe. This podcast is recommended for all Linux users who want to follow the zeitgeist, learn about KDE world domination, and how they might maximize their enjoyment of using Linux.

ErieLookingProductions · Nov 2021

I’ve been going through looking for some Linux podcasts and it’s difficult to find a team that makes it worth my time to listen. There are truly a handful of podcasts that fit the need and this is certainly one of them. I used to live in England so the international aspects of the discussions still pique my interest! Keep it going!

BarddZen · Oct 2019

I’ve been listening from the beginning and they just keep getting better. A great mix of people providing different perspectives and levels of expertise make every topic thoroughly enjoyable. I eagerly look forward to the release of a new episode. By far the best Linux podcast out there. Brilliant.
