Epic chat with Steven, I was hanging off every word. So excited at the moment, for where we'll be in a few months time and where this will all be in the future! Go Podcasting!

Fantastic to have StevenB on to get some additional recognition for the amount of effort and creativity he is bringing to a new wave of creators discovering the tools he is making available. In a world overrun with "takers", need to celebrate these talented "makers"! Well done.
