The Kernel, with Obsidian
Series Overview — The Kernel, with Obsidian Welcome to The Kernel — the podcast where we dig into the crunchy, complicated, occasionally chaotic world of enterprise tech… and try not to set anything on fire. Across eight episodes, we chat to CEOs, engineers, open source evangelists, and the folks who actually fix things at 2 AM. Expect bold opinions, war stories, strong coffee energy, and the kind of honesty you never get in vendor webinars. We’ll unpack why open source took over the world, why silos still exist (even though everyone swears they’re “cross-functional”), how cloud works in Africa when the internet sometimes doesn’t, and what happens when AI tries to “help” but instead rearranges your entire Jira board. If you like real conversations, clever insights, and jokes only sysadmins will laugh at… you’re in the right place. The Kernel — let’s get to the root of it.

Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
