Hacker Public Radio
Hacker Public Radio[edit]
Hacker Public Radio (HPR) is a daily podcast that features a wide range of topics related to hacking, computing, and open source technology. It is hosted by various contributors and operates under a Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike (CC-BY-SA) license. Created by StankDawg, HPR serves as a successor to the Binary Revolution Radio show.
The podcast covers numerous topics, including hacking, programming, Information security, and computer networking. Other topics discussed on the show range from health care and cooking to gaming and financial planning. As of October 31, 2019, HPR has released 2,934 episodes.
Governance[edit]
HPR is entirely governed by its community. Currently, Ken Fallon ensures that a show is scheduled for each day and alerts the community of any gaps in the schedule. Policy decisions are proposed and discussed on a mailing list, which is open to everyone. These discussions are summarized in a monthly community news episode, a "town hall" meeting where anyone can participate.
Contributing to HPR is straightforward through a web form, where contributors schedule a time slot and upload their audio files. Shows are not curated or censored.
HPR is hosted gratis through AnHonestHost.com, and many of its files are stored on the Internet Archive. As of October 31, 2019, it contains 53 Gigabytes of audio.[1]
