Kubernetes Podcast in 2019: year-end recap

At the Kubernetes Podcast, we bring you a weekly round-up of cloud-native news, accompanied by an in-depth interview with a community member. As we publish our 50th and final episode for 2019, it’s time to look back on some of our favorite moments from the year.This year, we stepped out of the studio. We hosted a live recording at Google Cloud Next in San Francisco, as well as listener meetups at KubeCon EU in Barcelona and KubeCon NA in San Diego. There’s nothing more gratifying to us than having someone come up to you at a conference and tell you that they enjoy your show, or even ask after the family of foxes you mentioned were living in your backyard.  Our heartfelt thanks to everyone who came by, or stopped us in the hallways.Open source reaches all corners of the world, and we’ve been amazed at all the listeners who have joined the podcast community from around the globe. Every now and then we send out stickers by post: they’ve gone to dozens of countries on almost every continent. (We’re still waiting for a listener to reach out from Antarctica!) Thank you to our wonderful audience, who has let us know how much we’re helping them connect with and learn about the Kubernetes community. We are truly grateful to you for listening.Serious dedication tweeted to us from one podcast listenerWe would like to share some of our most popular episodes from 2019:Kubernetes Failure Stories, with Henning Jacobs (episode 38): To have the best chance for success, it helps to learn from failures.
