Welcome to Bad Voltage! In this new podcast, your four hosts are Jeremy Garcia,

Jono Bacon, Stuart Langridge, and Bryan Lunduke. We’ll be talking about technology,

politics, the internet, music, open source, and things that interest us. We’ll

interview people and review things. And be amusing along the way. In this, our first

show, topics are:

Diaspora* and Identica, open-source social networks: why did they not make it into the mainstream, and does it matter?

Review: Cards Against Humanity, a “free party game for horrible people”

Oculus Rift, the virtual reality headset for gaming: gimmick or the next big thing?

Interview: tech journalist Steven J. Vaughan-Nicols

We’d love to hear your feedback on this first show, and suggestions for who we should interview and what we should review. Drop us a line at [email protected] and you might even feature in our “Letters” segment in the next show in two weeks!
