The Liberators Podcast
This is the podcast of The Liberators. Our mission is to unleash organizations and teams all across the globe from ineffective product development. We rely on insights from scientific research as much as possible so that you don't have to take our word for it.
In each episode, we look at the challenges faced by Agile teams, software teams, and product teams. We discuss relevant research, share our experiences, or challenge existing beliefs. Each episode ends with practical and actionable recommendations on what you can do with your teams.
Most episodes are written and presented by Christiaan Verwijs. Our music was written and performed by Jasper Huiskamp a.k.a. Basanite. Post-production by Jasper Huiskamp. The music for episodes before 91 is licensed from Yummy Sounds.

Scrum Mythbusters: In Scrum, We Spend Too Much Time In Meetings
"Scrum has too many meetings!" is a common complaint against the Scrum Framework. And we totally get where that is common from.
But if you look at the numbers, Scrum doesn't have "many meetings" at all. Instead, other things seem to be happening that are making teams feel as if they're wasting their valuable time in meeting rooms. In this episode, we explore the myth that Scrum requires many meetings. We also give you several tips on how to start improving your situation.
