During this show, Chris Ferrell joins us to wrap up the fun…. arc. We break the format this week to have a more round-table style discussion on some of the creative ways we’ve had fun over the years as not only podcast creators but also as podcast consumers.
During the Better Podcasting download we update you on the latest developments in the Windows 10 Anniversary Edition Webcam Drive Issue saga. We also discuss the announcement by Google of Hangouts on Air moving to YouTube Live and why you have no reason to be concerned.
