WikiFireside Chat
WikiFireside Chat is a podcast hosted by Yop Rwang Pam and Philip Kopetzky that takes a closer look at the organisations and structures that run and support the various Wikimedia projects, including Wikipedia, Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons. Yop and Philip discuss past events, current topics, and future possibilities in the Wikiverse
As the podcast grows, so will this page on Meta. Episodes will be published at irregular intervals depending on what is going on in the organised part of the Wikiverse at any given time, but we'll try to keep it short and fun(ny)!

Primer Episode
editWelcome to the Primer Episode of the WikiFireside Chat with Yop and Philip! Please excuse audio glitches in the recording, we're still in the process of figuring this out, but we hope you'll enjoy the episode! :-)
This episode attempts to give you an overview of all the different parts of Wikimedia and how they fit together, and also introduce you to some of the key ideas of the 2030 Wikimedia strategy process. We will refer to this episode in future episodes in case you could use some more detailed explanations of the key components of Wikimedia!
