    E08: Skyrocketing! (Guest: Travis Stanifer)

    In this episode, Scott Smith got to [virtually] hang out with and talk to Travis Stanifer, who actually has a job in health care (listen to find out what Dr. Stanifer practices!) and who also is an iOS Developer! They talk about his current job and what it's like working where he does, about the apps he has built, about his interview with 9to5mac because of his new app, about how he got into programming only recently, and more!

Maybe the most important SwiftUI podcast out there

The sound quality is exceptional and the guests are on fleek. Don’t miss this.

DevRunner ,

Great First Episode!

Scott, I just listened to your initial episode and I loved it! You asked pertinent questions and stayed on theme, but still allowed for an easy-going conversation. Hearing Ben tell his story of his transition from finance to iOS development was fascinating and inspiring. It’s not easy to make a change like that. Kudos to both of you.
