Hacker Public Radio (also known as HPR) is a free culture and technology oriented podcast produced as a community collaboration since 2005. It originated in USA but has contributors from around the world[2][3]. The community has a governance structure [4] and maintains social media presences on Facebook, LinkedIn, Libera Chat[5] and Mastodon.[6]

Subject Matter and Format

The subject matter is described as anything that may be of value to hackers or hobbyists.[7] Many are on open-source and Linux-related[2] topics, or on security-related topics,[8][9] with others on seemingly unrelated topics such as wild-swimming[10][11]. HPR has the most frequent output of any Linux-related podcast.[2] There are also some long-running series by regular hosts[3] and in-depth discussions spanning multiple episodes[12].

Shows are typically published every weekday[7], and this schedule is achieved by actively soliciting[9][13] contributions from the audience.

Not all shows are considered family-friendly[2], and as the community does not do any content moderation[13], all shows are marked explicit.

Production

The show is unique in being purely community-driven. Audio submissions from community members are published as shows. These submissions may have been captured in a variety of ways and submitted in multiple formats. Many have markdown or even multimedia format metadata associated with them, including transcripts.[14] All submissions are licensed under Creative Commons. These are then processed by software written by the community[3], and released as Ogg, Speex and MP3 formats[2], with an entry in the episode guide on the community website.[12]
