 A weekly podcast, published every Sunday, by a self-described hacker, curmudgeon and hacktivist. Discussion of news of interest to the alpha and uber geek, as well as stories and humor from a decade of professional programming. Always topical, interesting to the admittedly few, with as much bile and rhetoric as the net will withstand.Primary Format :
