Last week, (most of) the gang took the show on the road to NEJS Conf 2016! In this episode, there’s the usual banter and a game of Truthy/Falsy but the highlights are the incredible guests we corralled onto the show. We may have told some of the speakers that we were there to escort them to the green room after their talk, but once we told them they had to do our show in order to be let out of the locked train car they were all to happy to join us! First up, we talked to Jennifer Wong about her talk: I think I know what you’re talking about, but I’m not sure. We were then joined by John K. Paul where we discussed his presentation: JS Debuggers: Our Flashlights in the Dark Woods. We capped off our interviews with Andrea Goulet where she tried her best to teach Bryan and Neil empathy while fielding questions about her talk: Communication is just as Important as Code. This wraps up another fun episode! If you’d like to be a guest on the SitePen Podcast or just think we’d be fun to hang out with for an hour, let us know!
