BBB #15: The origins of Ben Eater
In the middle of a discussion that was meant to be about computer networking, we ended up diving into Eater's full career trajectory. Stenhaug and I (Grant) were so fascinated by this that we decided to just pull that whole section of the discussion out as its own podcast.

BBB #12: 3Blue1Brown Q&A #2
The second Q&A session for 3blue1brown. We chose the questions that we thought made for the best discussion, which includes whether or not a knack for math is innate, favorite improv games, whether IT will always be an industry approachable to people who are self-taught without degrees, and many more.
Question thread, with many more shorter answers from Grant.

BBB #10: The case against Net Neutrality?
Everyone seems to want net neutrality, yet it remains a contentious issue. Is pure evil the only reason anyone would oppose it, or is it a bit more nuanced?

Customer Reviews
Amazing Podcast!
A podcast with only either Ben S., Ben E., or Grant would’ve been great. Combine them all together and it becomes a true powerhouse. Highly recommend!
Listen to it
If you are reading this review then just listen to the podcast. Just do it. Let the soothing voices of Grant, Ben and Ben give your brain a relaxing shower of words and knowledge.
Not for everyone and FANTASTIC if it’s for you.
Educational, math, computer. I just finished the whole series. It’s had an impact on my classroom and how I teach it. It gives me food for thought. They’ve become “friends in my pocket.”
I can’t stop thinking about what they talk about — and how I can put it into practice. I can’t stop mulling over their ideas. And I can’t find anyone else who gives it a listen and ‘gets bitten’ by the bug.
I’m on team Grant, Eater, and Stenhaug!
