The Mappyist Hour - The Drunk One

The Mappyist Hour - The Drunk One

Recorded live (and very loose) from Bucharest, Romania, this is the infamous "lost episode" of The Mappiest Hour. Tee and Silas take the microphone to the streets—and bars—of FOSS4G 2019, capturing the raw energy of the global geospatial community. Between shots of ţuică and local beers, the hosts interview a revolving door of conference attendees, debating the merits of open-source software, the intensity of the "hallway track," and why this community feels more like a family than a tech sector. Be warned: the audio is raw, the takes are unfiltered, and the editing is... minimal.
