Housed under the General Services Administration, the Federal Acquisition Service helps other government entities procure products, technology, and transportation, among other things. That may seem like a very specific subject area, but the division excitedly states that there is no need to have a “special interest in acquisitions” to enjoy its show: GSA FAS Focus.

The GSA FAS Focus podcast is a very geeky government show, although I admire its enthusiasm, which you can hear in its presenter’s voice. It also sounds more like what we now consider to be a podcast and features interviews with different FAS staff about subjects like the U.S. Digital Corps. The corps is a fellowship program aimed at early career technologists to recruit them to work for the government.

The podcast seemed to gain steam in 2021, when it published an episode around twice a month. We haven’t seen any new episodes this year, though.
