Fish Tales: A Podcast with Lee Trout Lee Trout

So I show up to All Things Open '22 and in the first session of the community leadership summit I see a fella in a purple teletubby costume. It happened to be Halloween and this fella was none other than Josh Goldberg. I had a blast at the conference, thoroughly enjoyed the time I got to spend with Josh and attending his talk and it was truly an honor to get so much of Josh's time to record this episode. Gather round and listen to us talk about All Things Open, open source development, writing and publishing a technical book and so much more.

Josh, thanks again for investing the time to record this episode! I enjoyed editing it as much as I enjoyed recording it!

Haroun is a principal software engineer and sound engineer. We had a great chat about his background in sound engineering and some of the artists he’s worked with over the years before diving into our opinions on various aspects of software engineering. Haroun is one of those people that will always leave you wanting to learn more as he has such a broad knowledge base that covers so many topics. I am certain there’s something interesting here for everyone.

Haroun, thank you for making the music for the show and thanks for all the great conversations in addition to this one we captured to share with the world!

Leslie Kiszka is on the show to talk about running her food blog StressBaking.com! We had a great chat and she was patient enough to walk me through all the various aspects of her blog including the origin story and what she has to do to keep things running. It was a blast to learn about it and hear it all directly from her!
