What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’m not a huge Linux user myself. I’ve dabbled in it for fun, but couldn’t get into it. Still a fun experience though. This creator (Nick) provides content in a way that’s refreshing without being overly opinionated or off the cuff rantings I’ve had with most tech news podcasts/creators. Most people (apparently not a lot of us according to the latest episode) that are coming here probably are coming from the YouTube Channel. Obviously, you won’t get the fun easter eggs he puts in the videos (You still haven’t taken over the world yet. It’s been on your calendar forever) While this podcast is an expanded version of said YouTube channel, it still feels like it’s a compressed version of the important Linux and overall tech news (which is a GOOD thing). My name is also Nick, so from one Nick to another, keep on keeping on.
