TAM London video 1: George Hrab

While at TAM London I grabbed some short interviews with a handful of the speakers. Here’s the first one: me screwing around with podcaster, musician, skeptic, and funny guy George Hrab.


I’ll post the others next week. But if you like this sort of ridiculousness, then you should listen and subscribe to Geo’s podcast, too.

    Me, too! I’m glad you get to do something that makes you laugh and gives you joy (and man-crushes and other strange relationships)!

    Hmmm… though I don’t watch FRINGE (second to CSI – TOS), I noticed a certain similarity to the Observer from that show….

    J/P=?
