    I really enjoyed this segment...I was a big fan of TechTV on DirecTV back in the day, with Jason and Megan, of course. :) It's always good to hear intelligent tech talk, and tech nostalgia.

    Hey Jason, can we get more interviews with people like Eddy Barker? As much as I love listening to the guests you bring on (especially having listened to them with you at TWIT/AF) I was hoping this show would be more about tech inventors and founders, rather than your fellow journalists/podcasters. I'd love to get the backstory behind the creation of other cool technologies.

      Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, it is my plan to rope more people in from outside my sphere. Leading up to my family vacay for most of this month, I'm definitely continuing to tap into my sphere. When I get back, I plan to start broadening the bubble to more stories like Eddy's. I love the chance to take a unique look into the driving force of what brings people to creating great things. Thank you for sharing!

    (suggestion for interviewing any guest of any future video similar to this one: no vulgar (or profane) language)

      Would you mind pointing me to the place where one of those words is? I can't find it in this episode. Thanks.

      @@Mario500NOW I appreciate you pointing this out. I realize that we all have different perspectives on what constitutes vulgar or profane language. I will not allow very serious examples to pass through the filter. That word, however, passes the sniff test for me. The way I figure: If I'm keeping language to the words you find on broadcast TV, then I'm fine with that. The example you pointed out (I am not typing it here cause I realize it's offensive to you) falls into that category. Thank you for watching!
