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.

Why Scrum Requires Completely “Done” Software Every Sprint
In the Scrum.org Headquarters there is a picture of Ken Schwaber — one of the founders of Scrum — pointing at a sticky saying “Done”. This picture underscores the most essential rule in Scrum: create “Done” software every Sprint.
But what does that mean? And why does it matter? Isn't it enough if you just work as hard as you can during a Sprint and do the rest - like testing and deployment - in a future Sprint?
In this episode we explore how vitally important a Done increment is to the purpose of the Scrum Framework. And more importantly, to working empirically in the face of complex work.
