Episode 035. Living on the Edge is back this week thanks to Chu Yeow. Also this week I put together an out-takes reel (which you can find at the bottom of this post). These are a few items that got cut from the original podcast, because... well.. they weren't appropriate. You'll want to listen to the podcast before you listen to the out-takes, or they may not make any sense.

Episode 033. Jason is finally back this week, and we've got plenty of stories to cover! Also, we are now looking for work. If you are looking for some customized Rails training for your team, need someone to look over your code (Code Review), or want to pair program for a day, definitely drop us a line.

Jason's Note: Thank you to everyone who emailed me while I was gone. I'm still going through all of that email but will get back to everyone. Also, I would like to apologize in advance for getting a song stuck in everyone's head. I'm sorry. But I'm also not sorry.

Episode 032. Why bother reading RSS feeds when you can just listen to the podcast to get your fill of the most interesting Ruby and Rails news? This week staring Steven Bristol, Elvis Presley, and Fergie. Does it get any better then that?

If you're going to be at Railsconf next week, don't forget about the Ruby Heroes Award Ceremony, taking place Friday, 7:40 PM right before DHH's Keynote. Also if you're as passionate about podcasting as we are, come join us at the Podcast Meetup after DHH's keynote at 9 PM.

Episode 029. Adam Keys joins us this week because he was in town filming some new videos with us. As always, a big thanks to Chu Yeow, for the edge Rails updates and thank you to our sponsor Sun.

A note about the audio. The audio this week is horrible because of a certain new microphone which we bought that will remain nameless that we will be returning. We'll announce the two poll results next week since the audio got completely distorted for a few stories including the poll. We'll also try and make the episode extra long to compensate. We're sorry!
