This is the best podcast hands down. These guys are my favorite. Please never change.
These guys definitely know tech. I have enjoyed many of their podcasts. But I stopped listening when every episode had political commentary.
There are plenty of podcasts where divisive politics is discussed. If these guys want to create a podcast to do that, awesome, have fun. But leave it out of tech discussions.
Great listen
The 3 (2.5) admin gentlemen are a joy to listen to. Great charisma between the hosts. A little bit of news kinda like the daily show but more knowledge base than that. If you wanna keep up to date with IT security news and get a good laugh, check them out. They even do some free consulting at the end. I look forward to each week’s show.
A great podcast covering the spectrum of it including Linux, Windows, and BSD. They share relevant information with sources, and they're not afraid to disagree with each other. Well worth a listen.
