Free Culture Podcasts

History

The project dates back to 2013 when the idea of keeping a list of Linux, Making, Hacking and other technical podcasts was suggested. Various attempts to build such a system were made, culminating in a Perl script called feedWatcher which maintained a SQLite database of podcast feeds.

For the FOSDEM meeting of 2020 a table was requested to represent as many of the Free Culture podcasts whose details could be collected. The name Free Culture Podcasts was used, a website created (https://freeculturepodcasts.org) and feedWatcher enhance to generate the HTML to populate it.
