Joe set up a FreeBSD box to serve as a replication target and it was surprisingly straightforward, if rather different from Linux. Plus the lies that storage tells us.

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.
