- Great Narrator
This guy is a great narrator. I remember that I started listening to this podcast back when he got into a car accident but even while being injured he was still giving us weekly news. That alone deserves a 5/5 from me. Thank you

Apple Podcasts5MnReviewUnited Statesa year ago - Informative and fun
Hard to hate Micheal, I wouldn’t mind him putting more of his own opinion in the show though.
Easy to digest Linux news and libre software updates.
Apple Podcasts5Somedood_United States2 years ago - Corporate Kowtowing
So very disappointed at hearing this podcaster glossing over & rewriting facts to hide the extremist shenanigans going on at Gnome, Mozilla & other projects. This type of corporate kowtowing is disgusting. Unsubscribing
