Ask HN: Is there a podcast on the history of Unix?

12 points by adtac ↗ HN
From Unics to AT&T stuff, Berkeley lawsuit, LICENSE wars, Stallman/FSF/GNU, Tannenbaum/Minix, POSIX standardisation, Torvalds/Linux, and maybe even the modern scenario? I'd love to listen to someone knowledgeable about this.

I found the introduction chapter in TLPI really interesting.

Looking at https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/77/Unix_history-simple.svg I'd think there'd be tons of stories to tell.

I think you might like Command Line Heroes. It's made by Red Hat and they released three episodes so far with good production quality. The first two episodes were about the early history of Linux.
