How have I never heard about this?
I can't believe I've never heard of this
We recently released our podcast (keeping it non-technical), discussing all sorts of topics related to privacy and security, and providing simple tips. If anyone's interested feel free to check out and let me know what you think! https://www.conversationwithahacker.com/
Came here to say I've not heard of this as well, and add that this is great!
The RSS feed still lists MP3 as a patent encumbered format, which it no longer is.

If this is deliberate, it seems like a very curious hill to die on. Almost zero mainstream podcast apps natively support OGG, and telling people to avoid MP3 isn't really helping anyone at this point.

Edit: it seems like the page is probably just under-maintained. It still links off to Google Play for podcasts, which hasn't even been Google's primary podcast app even long before Google Play was discontinued.

I forgot all about this, I used to listen all the time around 2007-2010 I was going to say that I don't know why I stopped listening, except that I stopped listening to podcasts all together. Though now that I think about it, its because I broke my sansa that had rockbox installed.

I'm glad to see its still going though. That's awesome.

Great podcast ... How come I never heard about it. Damn. Anyhow I was looking for English podcasts similar to Chaosradio and Chaosradio Express (they are mostly in German). This fits quite well. Any other suggestions?
Now there's a name I haven't heard in a few years, used to listen all the time and even submitted a few episodes when I was young. It shaped the hell out of me that's for sure.

I think the beauty of HPR is the low barrier of entry to producing a interesting episode. Grab a Mic, and get a ramble :)

Valid points all. That page needed some love and attention. I cleaned it up a bit.
