More laid back than the other podcasts, Linux Outlaws should definitely be on your playlist. — Linux Format Magazine
Overview
Linux Outlaws was started by Fabian Scherschel from Bonn, Germany and Dan Lynch from Liverpool in the UK in the fall of 2007. Having never met each other before in person, the pair started talking to each other on a microblogging platform about Linux and eventually got involved in podcasting.
Linux Outlaws was born as just two regular guys talking lightheartedly about Linux and Free Software once a week but has grown into a very popular news show, including interviews with many big names in the open source community, while still maintaining its laid-back style and occasionally slightly questionable brand of humour. It now includes a weekly live broadcast of the recording sessions and a vibrant community, spread among the Linux Outlaws Forums, multiple social networks and the #linuxoutlaws IRC channel on the Freenode network.
The show is being recorded simultaneously in Bonn and Liverpool using almost exclusively free and open source software and both Dan and Fab have been commited to the ideals of the Creative Commons in everything they produce from the start.
