This is a podcast focused on connecting user space with the community. We invite you to join us as we explore the many things that impact you, the user. We’ll experiment with the Distros and Desktop Environments that we all love, we’ll discuss the current hardware and technology impacting our lives and we’ll also talk about the different topics affecting the community. All along the way we’ll share stories and anecdotes about our journey through the Linux User Space. Episodes drop every other Monday.

Chaos-r3v - Juniper Network switches
At least under the hood Junos OS is based on FreeBSD
Stan - Multiple Operating Systems on the same hardware
- It is posssible to dualboot Ubuntu and Linux Mint or just about any Linux distribution.
