Customer Reviews
Can becoming a better programmer be fun?
Allen, Michael and Joe have found a way to not only have a fun and entertaining show, but teach you something along the way. They dive into many different topics and books. I was a self taught, programmer who had many bad practices. Since I've been listening to Coding Blocks for over 7 years, I feel I have received the equivalent to a CS degree.
Great Show!
I only wrote this to stop the begging :-), seriously I love the depth that they go into when discussing topics and the way the discussion flows. I look forward to each new episode.
Best podcast for Devs
This show played a huge part in keeping me interested in software development. I have very few people in my life that have an appreciation for coding. Hearing your passion for the craft reminds me I’m not alone!
I’ve worked in industry as a manufacturing engineer for better part of a decade. A mechanical engineer by degree, now pursuing a solutions architect role.
You guys rock! Keep up the good work,
