I’ve been a regular podcaster for, wow, around 15 (!) years now. More or less…[1] After some occasional guest appearances early in the run of on a show called “Dogear Nation”, back in 2009 I moved up to a regular slot as a co-host, with my friends (and, at that time, IBM colleagues) Michael Martine and Michael Rowe.
