Episode 15 brings us Jared Blank and our discussion of some of the sins that permeate the marketing landscape.  We discuss the good, the bad, and the just plain silly. This drove Jared to create Gobbledy, his platform, newsletter, and podcast.

Episode 14 brings us Ron Northcutt, Director of Developer Advocacy with Acquia.  He talks us through the newest and potentially most revolutionary of E-commerce frameworks, "Composable Commerce".  What it is, what it isn't, and what it has to do with Legos and Lunchables are all included in this episode.  Plus, for fun, you can check this out too.
