LQ Radio no more shows

Ok so quick question. I did some searching on the form and found now answer.

I see LQ podcasts being put out. What ever happened to the LQ radio episiods. I am just wondering because I really liked those, they are longer than the podcast so it keeps me busy on my way to work and travel.

Thanks

Most recent one was May 28th. As you can see, they are still going strong.

I only have the older podcasts. But I thought the podcasts were the short snipets lasting around 30 mins max. Where the old LQ Radio episods which lasted 1-1 1/2 hours.

Unless the podcasts have changed?

They seem to have merged and to be one and the same. I have moved your thread to Website Feedback and Suggestions so Jeremy has more chance of seeing this.

I see.

So are some of the podcast's long in length now? Is there a thread expanining this?

I guess I will start pop those on the IPOD.
Thanks!

The podcasts are one person, Jeremy, talking about the latest linux issues. They are about 15-30 minutes in length.

The Radio shows were interviews/talk shows, but these are hard to organize, are huge to download and hard to control the sound quality of. However, technology has picked up, and I have heard decent multi-person shows (with some on their regular phones) with good quality sound.

the "panel" consisted of mods and Jeremy, who all live in different time zones on different and busy schedules. So yeah, difficult to organize.

the radio seemed to go around the time of the mega LQ update, so I'm guessing Jeremy just got busy with other stuff.

As you noticed the podcasts are quite regular, so "LQ Radio" is alive and well. The LQ Radio Show has indeed been on hiatus for a bit. We do hope to bring it back, but as suggested it is a lot of work (and quite time consuming to do correctly).

I'm remixing it as mono, as being stereo was making the file larger with no real benefit.
