  • In this episode our two hosts discuss the recent license change in a NoSQL data base known a the Remote Dictionary Server, aka Redis. Given the fact that this podcast probably wouldn't exist without this company never mind code base (as Martin and Chris met at this company when it was still known as Redislabs), brace yourself for a riveting trip down memory lane never mind fasten your seat belts for that ride in the Redis DeLorean when our two hosts discuss the implications never mind future of that database...

  • Now in its fourth year, this podcast has seen it all: The rise and demise of whole empires, the beloved competition fade into distant memory and a glorious appearance at last year's FOSDEM (Europe's biggest gathering of FLOSS enthusiasts), where actually more than five people showed up (thanks again to the ones attended on that Saturday afternoon in Ixelles - our hearts go out to you!). So it's once again time for an update of the five year plan (true to this beloved tradition going back to the olden days of communist Russia back in the last century) and how our ageing two heroes are doing on world domination, supporting the FLOSS community and recreational drugs (confined to legal ones course :-). Among other things. Such as all the gory details about Amish adult entertainment websites. Don't miss this (even if you're not into Amish entertainment websites - adult or otherwise)!

  • This episode introduces the Software Freedom Conservancy featuring Karen Sandler and Bradley Kuhn. Many people probably know the SFC from its FLOSS license verification (especially copyleft licenses) work but there's much more to this non-profit.

  • We made it. If you're reading this on your podcast player, you are listening to the 100 episode of your beloved podcast called Linux Inlaws. In this bumper episode, Martin and Chris will look back at almost four years of LI history, recount the highlights (and lowlights!) and shed some light things to come for the next 100 episode. Maybe. Plus a very special greeting from an even more special BDfL (you don't want to miss this if Linux even just remotely rings a bell).

  • This episode is host to Alex Hochgarten, a venture capitalist focussing on FLOSS start-ups among other things. Even if you're not a start-up looking for cash right now, you will find this episode more than interesting as it gives an overview of the venture capital funding process apart from other black magic; the chances, risks, ins and outs of these issues and what to look out for when going after this sort of investment for your next contraband smuggling operation, drug counterfeit outfit or weapons wholesale boutique (hint: stay on the legal side to begin with). Plus juicy details about our cash position (if you're interested in that sort of thing :-).Due to some alien interference (in the literal sense, apparently Chris forgot to pay his contribution to the widows and orphans fund of a species called Vogons, normally known for their excellent taste in poetry and other fine literature), the audio quality of this episode has suffered a little bit, a circumstance for which the Inlaws would like to extend their sincerest apologies (Chris has replenished his cash stash once again so contributions to Vogons and other alien races looking for hard cold cash should be flowing without interruptions in the future).

  • This show is all about the public sector. Yes, that money pit where all of your taxes vanish into for the greater good, mediocre services and fat pay checks for politicians. Or so it seems. But despair not, there's a silver lining at the horizon: Martin and Chris dive into the use of FLOSS in this area, shedding light on the good, the bad and the ugly. Plus: Additional juice on the only communist distribution on the planet (spoiler: yes, it does come from North Korea).

  • In this Halloween special Martin and Chris discuss the scariest moments and people in FLOSS history. No project, person or concept is safe from these in-depth revelations so don't miss this episode. Plus - as it's custom at this time of year - the Dark Side Tech Support makes another appearance when a lower deity rings with a technical problem. You REALLY don't want to miss this if you're religious, like black humour or are otherwise socially challenged. And some PostgreSQL bonus marketing content :-).

  • In this episode, Martin and Chris host Shea, a long-time listener and first-time caller :-). In contrast to what you may believe listening to this episode, marketing had NO play whatsoever in bringing Shea on air and any of his opinions about the show, Linux in particular, the world in general - you get the idea - are entirely his and are not sponsored by the Inlaws in any way.Want to get on the show as well? Simply top Shea's amount of feedback emails (currently clocking in at approximately 25,000) and an episode is yours. But before getting any ideas like letting a bot do all of the hard work of sending these mails: We will spot the difference, so only genuine, hand-written (on a keyboard :-) emails will be considered.

  • IN this episode Martin and Chris host Uwe Ziegenhagen, a veteran of the LaTeX community. For our younger hipster audience, LaTeX has been the typesetting system of choice for generations of scientists publishing their work far beyond the realm of computer science (as a matter of fact, Chris' first two books were produced using this software). Plus more on one of Martin's dirty little secrets (hint: it concerns Netflix lesser known sides). Plus a trip down memory lane for Chris. So if you're interested in computer-aided typesetting or want to know more about Martin's secrets or Chris' past, this is your show!

Then this episode is definitely for you!

  • This episode features Joe Drumgoole, head of developer relations at MongoDB (at the time of the recording). MongoDB of course being one of the document databases in the NoSQL space. So if you're interested in what this NoSQL hype is all about anyway or want to catch up on the latest shenanigans at MongoDB, this is an episode not to be missed. Full disclosure: This episode does contain some marketing angles and a few somewhat biased views on technologies which some of our listeners may find discomforting (or which others may find particularly enjoyable). Anyway, you have been warned :-). Plus: Details on how to cook salmon with fruit juice and liquorice.

  • In this episode, Martin and Chris discuss the relationship between relationships and FLOSS. Given the apparent similarities between these two areas regarding problem solving, escalations, etc. many tried and tested approaches are examined and evaluated in a relationship context. So if you are just after going through a break-up and wondered what the heck went wrong, plan to engage in a romantic liaison or are in the thick of it, this show is definitively for you. Plus: How to save on relationship counselling (by listening to this episode of course :-).
