You might want to sample some of their others shows before writing them off so easily. Especially their chats with Mark Shuttleworth and Jeff Waugh over the last few weeks. Maybe it's just the perspective of a 20something British male listening to a show made by 20something British males but hey, i like it.

I agree with Ned here. I know the LUG Radio guys personally and there was certainly no hostile intent. The intention was to ask some questions that they were personally interested in, to raise some contentious points to see where Miguel stood on them and to air their concerns.
As Ned says, the rest of the shows are in a similarly British twenty-something 'no holds barred' style. As a member of the LUG in LUG Radio, I can assure everyone that LUG Radio is an attempt to recreate the atmosphere and the loud, opinionated discussion style that is common in our LUG meetings. I assure you the intention is not to offend or attack, merely to offer things up for discussion, with no being shy if you disagree. There are no 'shock-jock' tactics at play, this is how these guys talk. Offence not intended, but it's understandable that their style might be too much for some people to bare.
The Jeff Waugh and Mark Shuttleworth interviews are very good btw.
