There are 318 at the moment and they post several new ones each week. But they still have quite a back log so it is not surprising that an interview from 2012 hasn't been posted yet.
This list (currently 1337 items) includes videos and the transcripts:

- dcminter 6y agoThis is brilliant, thanks so much for posting these links!
- jecel 6y agoI have now read the transcript and it has "end of tape 1" and "start of tape 2" which makes me think it might be an audio only interview. In that case it probably won't show up on Youtube. Douglas Fairbairn, who did the interview, was the founder of VLSI Technology Inc which was the first fab to make ARMs and, together with Acorn and Apple, set up the ARM company. In an interview I did with Prof Andy Hopper he mentioned that a CAD group was created for a networking company which got merged with Acorn. That led them to have a chip design capability that they were trying to figure out what to do with it. This is a slightly different viewpoint of the same story. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBzHyZrJRSk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mBzHyZrJRSk
