The Java Posse

The Java Posse is a podcast of news, discussion, and interviews about the Java programming language and associated Java technologies. The four regular contributors are Tor Norbye (Google), Carl Quinn (Netflix), Dick Wall (Escalate Software) and Chet Haase (Google), with previous member Joe Nuxoll having left in 2012. By January 2007, the estimated listenership was between 7- and 10,000 people, and by late 2010 it was over 17,000 people.
The podcast was begun in September 2005 and was a successor to an earlier short-lived Java podcast produced by Wall called "JavaCast", cohosted with Brandon Werner.<ref name=tjp/> As of November 2012, over 400 episodes of The Java Posse have been recorded. The group has also organized the "Java Posse Roundup", an unconference held in Crested Butte, Colorado in 2007-2014 and organized by Bruce Eckel. Sessions from the roundup have been published as episodes of the podcast.
Quinn and Wall also co-hosted the Google Developer Podcast for a period of time.
