Episode notes

I think, you know, getting out of our comfort zones, I think that's a big part of it. It's understanding our audience a lot more and talking to them, right? It's figuring out what their needs are. But isn't that cyclical? It is cyclical, right? You're supposed to have empathy for racists. Is that a thing we'm supposed to have?It ages away from microphone. Really? I mean, like it's tough. No, it's an interesting point about the geography thing. Like do other people's jobs code a little. If you try to write some code and you realize, like, get submits and merge conflicts, suck

I was so delighted when at the beginning of 2017, Eric Meyer + Jeffrey Zeldman asked me if I wanted to record a live episode at my favorite design conference, An Event Apart.

Welcome to this very special episode where I felt like I needed to give a radio intro in front of a live audience! Lol, you’ll see what I mean. Thankful to my hero Chris Coyier for saving the day and pulling me out of broadcast mode, into live mode. First time for everything! I’m still in awe at my panel of bad design Avengers consisting of Cassie McDaniel, Chris Coyier, and Luke Wroblewski who each added so much value to the episode and attendees. Oh, did I mention this session took place right after “Happy Hour”? Please enjoy this very special, first-ever live broadcast of User Defender podcast!
