In September of 2018, Jupiter Broadcasting announced their merger with Linux Academy, a Linux and cloud training platform.[1]

In December of 2019, Linux Academy was acquired by A Cloud Guru.[2]

In August 2020, on Linux Unplugged 368,[3] Chris Fisher announced Jupiter Broadcasting would be independent again, and 2 shows, Coder Radio and Linux Action News, would resume. Linux Headlines would stay with A Cloud Guru.

  • Women's Tech Radio – Interviews with women in technology-related fields. It was hosted by Angela Fisher and Paige Hubbell.

Transmission technology[edit]

Most shows are streamed live through various platforms, such as their own website, Twitch, YouTube, and other audio-only formats. When not live, past episodes are available for streaming and download.

Jupiter Broadcasting also uses social media, like an IRC channel[31] for live chat, Mumble for Linux UNPLUGGED, Telegram,[32] and most current shows have their own Twitter account. Viewer interaction is encouraged during live streams.

As of early 2017, all shows from the main JB1 studio are being streamed using Linux and open source technologies. All remaining proprietary software had been removed and replaced by free alternatives which, according to Fisher, does not present any type of downgrade to the content's quality.[33]

Awards[edit]

  • The Linux Action Show came fourth after Richard Stallman in the Linux Journal for Best Linux/OSS Advocate/Evangelist for 2013.[34]
  • Ask Noah, Linux Unplugged, and TechSNAP made it in the top 50 of VertitechIT's Best IT Podcasts: 50 Informative (and Entertaining) Shows for IT Pros. Ask Noah came in #3, Linux Unplugged #20, and TechSNAP #38.[35]
