#2 - The Awkward Second Episode
Andy’s idiotic decision to run ‘yum update’, within hours of the broadcast, screws his Fedora 15 (‘Mother’s Meaty Beefballs’) laptop up completely but David saves the situation by recommending he uses his Android phone to preserve his suboptimal audio quality and high dropout rate.
Luke decides to abstain by drinking Diet Coke while Andy and David slowly get inebriated to numb the pain.
The Unholy Triumvirate review (mostly positive) feedback from listeners for episode 1 so thanks to all of you who listened and contributed.
We are delighted to discover than Google Listen delivers the damning verdict: “‘This is not a podcast’ is not recognised as a podcast”. Comprehensive testing shows that most podcatchers and RSS readers work fine with TINAP while all the rubbish ones don’t.
Luke talks about the application process for the Google Summer of Code, we all take a look at the recently released Habari 0.7 blogging platform and Andy gives his first impressions of the Gnome 3 desktop environment.
Fab is not mentioned in this episode at all. Well not often anyway.
We then correctly forecast the results of all this week’s Champions League fixtures and look at Michael Jackson’s erection in South West London.
David ponders on the relative lack of coverage on identi.ca of the situation in Libya and Andy explodes on a political rant and then drops off (again).
This podcast is all about freedom so, in an exciting development, this episode is now available in glorious stereo and good old fashioned mono. Just hunt high and low for a ‘Mono’ button on your music player and your channels will be equalised.
