#codepunk 001: Replicants, Phone Phreaking, and the var Keyword

In episode 1 of the codepunk.io. podcast, Bill and I discuss how the Matrix tried to kill cyberpunk, why Deckard is not a replicant, what's potentially in Bill's FBI file, and how the var keyword is a terrible addition to C#.

The audio quality worked out okay, but the necessary post-production to even out the audio caused some noise. We're making adjustments for the next go around, including better equipment and recording software.

Your browser does not support the audio element.
