Lococast

Lococast

There are lots of great podcasts about technology out there, but they're generally done by folks that aren't deep down in the trenches dealing with technology first-hand. Rick Harding and Craig Maloney both understand technology, and boy do they have some opinions about it. Join them for the Lococast podcast as they debate, dissect, and dismantle the current tech issues of the day, all with a local Ubuntu flair. They may not agree on all of the issues, but they definitely have opinions.
