Feed Issues

For some reason, the main LR feed is only displaying the first 42 episodes.  The other feeds appear to be working ok:

http://feeds.feedburner.com/linuxreality-mp3 (all episodes in mp3 format)

http://feeds.feedburner.com/linuxreality-ogg (all episodes in ogg format)

I’ll keep working on fixing the main feed.  The files are also available for direct download from each episode’s page.  Just visit the Archives.  Thanks!

Episode 100 - The Final Episode

In this, the last Linux Reality episode: I bring back some old audio clips, fire up one last listener tip, play a bunch of audio comments, and then take a few minutes to say thanks. I mentioned the reasons for ending the show in Episode 96 but now I would like to say thank you, everybody, for a great ride. It’s been a great two years. This site, the podcast feed and files, the forums, and the IRC channel will remain up and active for the forseeable future, and I’ll still be around. In the meantime, keep on hackin’.  :-)
