Oxide and Friends

We're pretty excited about Social Audio and have been hosting a show pretty most weeks. The live show is on our Discord server using the Stage Channel feature; You can join here and subscribe to our events calendar.

Recordings are available on YouTube shortly after the live shows from which we crowdsource show notes (PRs welcome!); once show notes are reasonably populated, we distribute recordings everywhere where you can get quality podcasts and through our RSS feed.

Oxide and Friends is available on popular podcast platforms!

This repository holds the show notes. Show notes are crowd-sourced--PRs aren't just welcome, we depend on them!
