No problem I've renamed the site to Hobby Public Radio. LOL :-)
http://hobbypublicradio.org/

From the policy point of view there is no real discussion. The HPR site
says 'Our shows are produced by listeners like you and can be on any
topic that "are of interest to hobbyists/hackers".'

What makes a hacker, well someone who contributes to HPR of course.
Given Lord Drachenblut was seen by many to be the quintessential HPR
hacker type, and lostnbronx designs space ships for a living, well we
can safely say we covered that requirement with flying colo(u)rs.

We generally create a series once there are three shows on the topic,
and there are already two shows from Lord Drachenblut
http://hackerpublicradio.org/correspondents.php?hostid=24

Namely:
hpr0659 :: 10 Buck Review - Serenity
http://hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?id=0659

hpr0779 :: 10 Buck Review: War Games
http://hackerpublicradio.org/eps.php?id=0779

So if lostnbronx sends in another one then it's a series.

Now as a host,

I think this is a brilliant idea. It's a fantastic way to hono(u)r his
memory. I was sure his fellow hackers would like to also get involved
which is why I suggested to lostnbronx to mail the topic to the list.

As I remember it, the rules for the show were the movie needs to cost 10
bucks or less. I would suggest that hosts should feel free to interpret
what is reviewed as they see fit, so long as the item is widely
available for under "10 Bucks". I would be interested in - picking
topics at random here you understand - cheap multimeters, 2nd hand
boardgames, old audio gear from the good will, laptops found in an
auction, etc.
