What differentiates HPR from other podcasts is that the shows are crowd sourced from the community - fellow listeners like you. There is no restriction on how long the show can be, nor on the topic you can cover as long as they are not spam and "are of interest to Hackers". If you want to see what topics have been covered so far just have a look at our Archive. We also allow for a series of shows so that hosts can go into more detail on a topic.

The schedule for the Community News shows can be downloaded as an iCal calendar containing recording dates for the next 12 months. A reminder is also sent to the mailing list in the week before the recording.

Our hosting is kindly provided to us by Josh Knapp from AnHonestHost.com, and he has the last word in issues related to site security. A changing team of volunteers called the "admins" or "Janitors", deal with the day to day operation of HPR. Acting as the first point of contact, processing the shows, coordinating policy discussions, removing spam, updating the website, etc. They are contactable via the email account admin @ HPR. They have no more say over policy than anyone else. Anyone who has shown a long term dedication to the project and is trusted by the community, can become an admin.

Well you've come to the right place. Our goal here at HPR is to make it as easy as possible for you to get a podcast released. We take care of the hard bits so you don't need to. Recording your first show is always a daunting prospect but over people like yourself have done it and so can you.
The first thing you will need to do is decide on a topic for your show. You might already have an idea but if not you can have a look at our Archive page for examples of shows people have recorded in the past. You can also look at our Requested Topics, or our Series page to see if you can add your knowledge to the pool.

Got any questions not covered here, then just email "admin" at "", and we’ll get in touch with you with all you need to know about getting your show published.
You can chat with other podcasters using IRC in the #oggcastplanet channel on the freenode.net network. Follow us on identi.ca (use the tag !hpr) and on Twitter (use the tag #hpr). We have a Facebook and LinkedIn group, so please join and spread the word.
Fellow listeners like yourself contribute the shows and so we all know how hard it is to do that first show. You're probably worried that we won't like the topic. Well don't be, have a look at our archive to see how diverse the contributions have been. You're probably worried about the quality of your audio, that you sound funny, that English isn't your native language, that you suffer from a speech impediment, that your show has loads of ummms and awws in it, well don't be. We have plenty of hosts that fall into all these categories but continue to produce great shows.
This is a list of topics that have been requested by the community. Feel free to add it to the list by emailing admin at hpr or by tweeting us on @HPR.

Similarly, a summary helps to add more information describing the show so a potential listener can decide whether to listen to it or not.
Each show is expected to have certain mandatory attributes listed below.
HPR shows are usually expected to be informative or educational, and as such some sort of accompanying written material is highly desirable. This might consist of brief notes, links to relevant web sites, or possibly longer notes and examples. Photographs, diagrams and example files are also welcome if the host feels it helps to get the message across.
As a contributor you can choose when your show will be released. We only release one show a day, during week days, but if a slot is free you can claim it. Go to the calendar page to do this. You need to have your show ready to upload before you reserve a slot though.

Many of today's portable media players support recording audio out of the box. Search for "Voice Recorder", to see if there is an application for your smartphone. Whichever option you have close to hand, try and set the recording to the best quality format (WAV or FLAC), and set everything else to the highest setting. It's always the goal to get the best quality audio but here at Hacker Public Radio we value content over quality and so long as it's audible we'll take it.
