Hacker Public Radio (also known as HPR) is a free culture and technology oriented podcast produced as a community collaboration since 2005. It originated in USA but has contributors from around the world. The community has a governance structure and maintains social media presences on Facebook, LinkedIn, Libera Chat, and Mastodon.
Subject matter and format
The subject matter is described as anything that may be of value to hackers or hobbyists. Many are on open-source and Linux-related topics, or on security-related topics, with others on seemingly unrelated topics such as wild-swimming. HPR has the most frequent output of any Linux-related podcast. There are also some long-running series by regular hosts and in-depth discussions spanning multiple episodes.
Shows are typically published every weekday, and this schedule is achieved by actively soliciting contributions from the audience.
Not all shows are considered family-friendly, and as the community does not do any content moderation, all shows are marked explicit.
