It’s finally here – the inaugural episode of the LQ Radio Show. We’re still working through some technical issues, but we are interested in any feedback you may have. In this episode we have me, jtshaw, mcleodnine and rshaw. We covered a variety of topics and overall I think the show came out quite well for a number one. Thanks to John, Dave and Robin for being the first panelists. Let us know what you want to see on the next LQ Radio Show.

I’ve received a few questions about the content here at the LQ Radio site, so I figured I’d take a couple minutes to clarify. The LQ Radio site will be the home to three distinct things:
1) The LQ Radio Show
2) LQ Radio Interviews
3) The LinuxQuestions.org Podcast
#1 and #2 will be posted to the “LQ Radio” category and the Podcast will go in the “LQ Podcast” category. It should also be noted that there are three different RSS feeds. One for the LQ Radio category, one of the Podcasts and one that includes both. Why three different RSS feeds? The Podcasts tend to be short, usually between 5-10 minutes while LQ radio content will be more like 45-90 minutes. This means much larger files in the LQ Radio feed. If you would simply like to get all content posted to this site, the combined feed is what you are looking for. If anyone has any questions, let me know.
A couple other quick updates. The first LQ Radio show should be available tomorrow if everything goes according to plan – stay tuned. Also, when we first started doing the LQ Podcasts, we really weren’t sure how things would work out. With the Podcasts now being regular and LQ Radio coming into the picture, we are dedicated to making this site and the audio content, the best it can be. We will slowly be doing equipment upgrades in the coming weeks and months so please bear with us. The next upgrade will be to a new mic, probably a Shure SM7b. One thing we need to improve is your feedback, so keep it coming. Thanks again for listening.

A little overdue, but the wait was well worth it. The first in the LQ Radio interview series is now available. The inaugural LQ Radio Show should be ready early next month, so stay tuned! The interview features Tom Adelstein and Sam Hiser. Topics covered include an in-depth look at the Sun Linux strategy, current trends in the Linux market, thoughts on Novell and Red Hat, Linux OEM preloads, the importance of open document formats, Linux in emerging areas, Open Sourcing OS/2, Linux standards and much more. Total running time is 1:16. I’d like to thank both Tom and Sam for taking the time to be the first guests.

A long awaited LQ Radio update. I just recorded the first live LQ Radio interview and the first show will hopefully be recorded next week. The first interview, featuring Sam Hiser and Tom Adelstein, went extremely well content wise and I should be able to have it posted later today. Skype gave us huge problems and we ended up having to ditch the p2p method and have me call both of them on landlines via Skypeout. Once we did that, things worked great. Stay tuned!

I was a guest on the Linux Link Tech Show last night. Here’s the OGG. Quite a few topics were covered and I think you’ll find it to be an interesting segment.
