  • Love this guys!

    Chris, Andrew and Jason are the best ruby friends you never actually meet. They will bring a smile to your face for sure. Oh they also talk about interesting code challenges and technologies that may or may not be related to Laravel. My favorite episodes are the ones where they interview people, Jason comes up with great questions every time. I try to listen to them every week.
