On the 19th of September 2005 a group of individuals got together to release their first show on the podcast network "Today with a Techie".
</p>
<p>
The idea was to share knowledge through podcasting. Now 13 years, 2 months, 19 days later the project is still going strong, and you dear listener are a part of it.
</p>
<p>
Today marks the 2700th episode of "Hacker Public Radio" and coupled with the 300 shows from "Today with a Techie", marks the 3000th episode of this project.
</p>
<p>
A big thanks goes out to all 354 individual hosts who together contributed 1452 hours of shows to the archive. 
</p>
<p>
There is about 50 giga bytes of mp3 files alone. 
</p>
<p>
Which played back to back gives 60 days 11 hours 40 minutes 21 seconds of continuous play. 
</p>
<p>
If you started listening today and played the shows 24 x 7 you wouldn't be finished listening until Monday, February 5th, 2019.
</p>
<p>
Of course by then there would be 39 additional shows released, so you still wouldn't be finished.
</p>
<p>
Despite all this we still don't have a wikipedia page. If you can, please take the time to create one for us. There is plenty of supporting information in the "In the Press" section of our about page.
</p>
<p>
So to mark the 3000th episode we are going to do nothing more than list the shows, host and summary where available.
</p>
<p>
Just doing that alone creates a whopping 7 and a half hour episode. 
</p>
<p>
Are you l33t enough to listen to it all ?
</p>
<p>
Let's go.
