First up in the lobby, we bring in a special VIP segment featuring Mo and guest Jeff Ligon from Red Hat to dive deep into Linux in the automotive space. How does a car's kernel differ from your laptop, and how does open source handle strict real-time safety regulations?

Next, a Grandmaster-level milestone: DistroWatch just turned 25! We look back at the history of distro-hopping, the days of ordering physical Linux CDs in the mail, and how the ecosystem has evolved into modern immutable architectures.

Then, Zeb calls out an enemy Ultimate in the news. The Arch User Repository (AUR) has faced consecutive malware attacks, and we break down what you need to know to stay safe. Plus, we highlight the brand-new features of the Linux 7.1 kernel release!
