The gang rolls the dice on Friday the 13th and try a video podcast on a Google+ Hangout after the request of guest Robert Stephens, Geek Squad founder and former CTO of Best Buy. The irony is not lost on us when Robert is not able to join the Hangout on his iPad but we switch over to Skype for a wide-ranging chat. The result is a full audio podcast and a short, gang-only video podcast embedded below.
Hosts: Steve Borsch, Tim Elliott, Graeme Thickins, and Phil Wilson
Music: Set The Music Free by Geoff Smith & brought to us by the podsafe Music Alley.
