Linux For Everyone

By popular request, I share my current "Linux toolkit," the collection of software and hardware I use on a daily basis for work and play. And be sure to listen for your chance to share your own favorites on the next episode.

Then, a meaty discussion about gaming on Linux Mint as I reboot the original "Linux Gaming Report" at Forbes.

Plus, another Linux Origin Story and a new Song from the Source!
