<p>The final — and raddest — Kubernetes release of 2020 is 1.20. This week, <a href="https://kubernetespodcast.com/about">Craig and Adam</a> talk to its release team lead, <a href="https://twitter.com/jrrickard">Jeremy Rickard</a> from VMware. Jeremy talks about migrating to newer Kubernetes versions, sooner or later; what was added, what was deprecated, and what that really means; and what happens when you Google your own nane.</p> <p>Do you have something cool to share? Some questions?
