Talking Shop Down Under on Frankly Speaking

At the recent DDD Sydney conference, I got a chance to sit down with Michael Kordahi (@delic8genius) and Andrew Coates (@coatsy) from Frankly Speaking and have a bit of a chat about the podcast.  Lewis Benge (@lewisbenge), organiser of DDD Sydney, was also on the show talking about the conference and what it was all about.

The episode can of course be found on the Frankly Speaking web site, and it's a podcast well worth subscribing to (if you haven't done so already).  If you've already heard the episode from them, then ignore this one, otherwise sit back, enjoy and then go subscribe :-)
