Henry here, didn't expect this post to ever be on HN heh!

The podcast is a 10 episode series (pre-recorded it over the last 5 months) with my friend Nadia (who isn't religious)

I'm writing up a post about making it from scratch (never made a podcast before) and will post it soon as well!

Hey Henry, cool concept for a podcast. I'm also a Christian who started with commercial development and now is pushing more for open source (even got permission to open-source some of my employer's backend tech as a "20% project", which'll be exciting to release when it's ready).

Religiously, growing up in an evangelical setting, I didn't see that as a very effective way of reaching people (as you say, you're not going to convince people via argument), but I do believe in evangelism through actions. My close coworkers know my faith because they've noticed things and asked questions and I explained. And I find I take this stance with open-source as well. Talking about open-source being great is one thing, but actually putting it into practice is something else.

I'll definitely be listening to and sharing your podcast.
