Had a really rad time talking to Sean on this podcast that made me dredge up a story of participating in Odyssey of the Mind in 3rd grade.
Ron Bronson (Former Head of Design at 18F) joins Sean to talk about his design mistakes, as well as what happens when sketch comedy and engineering sprints collide, Apple’s thinnest new product, and the dangerous allure of ribbon cuttings.

This past weekend, we suffered a break-in at PSU, which included the Rat's Nest, the show's recording studio. I'm safe and sound, but the damage included equipment pretty vital for recording the show—namely, the stuff that actually does the recording. You definitely need that, it turns out.
