I mumble a bit about show meta, talk about the very fun Charlotte Oktoberfest, and then rant about politics…the looming shutdown and the ACA (Obamacare), no less. Fun times. Oh, and I wish my wife a happy birthday!

Feed URL is reset! I redirected everything to the new one, so things *should* be working properly. If anyone is having issues, please let me know.

I discuss the BeyondPod / Feedly integration, and how I need to test some things there. I talk a bit about a crafting technique (pepakura; I couldn’t remember it off the top of my head during the ‘cast) and how I’m planning on using it for Dragon Con costumes next year, I mention Google Coder as a nifty new Raspberry Pi firmware, and I ramble for a bit about the Roku LOL Esports channel! Plus…our games are getting a new spot in the house!

New game shelf!

(I’m dropping this in the podcast feed, though I’m not counting it as today’s work for the Dog Days of Podcasting.)

My first time being interviewed by another podcaster…pretty crazy! I’ve known Paul Fidalgo for years now. We’ve never actually met (in fact, this interview is the first time we’ve even *spoken*), but between his music, his blog, and various online social media accounts, I feel that we’ve gotten to know each other pretty well. He’s a classically trained stage actor who also spent time in national politics (among other things, he worked as a researcher for Hillary Clinton’s 2008 campaign). He now lives in Maine, and works for The Center for Inquiry.

He’s also a great guy with a lovely family, and I’m quite honored to have been asked to join him on the Obcast. Thanks again, Paul.

Short podcast; I’ve been on another one most of the night. I talk about the day a bit. My discussion with Paul was interesting…he really made me think about why I am doing this, and what I’m trying to get out of it. I appreciate that. He’s quite the hoopy frood.

I ramble about Eliezer Yudkowsky and his Harry Potter fanfic, Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality.
