Transcript
JAMISON: Are you guys going to do a doo-wop chorus? I feel like with you all sharing the same microphone, we need some sick vocal harmony.

MERRICK: I wouldn’t mind starting a JS Jabber a cappella group.

JAMISON: Hey everybody and welcome to JavaScript Jabber Episode 68. I am your guest host, Jamison Dance. Chuck is at LoneStar Ruby Conf this week. We have Merrick Christensen.

MERRICK: What’s up?

JAMISON: We have Joe Eames.

JOE: Hey there.

JAMISON: And we have an incredibly special guest, Aaron Frost.

AARON: Hello.

MERRICK: [Laughter] What?

JAMISON: And he is not British.

AARON: Coming from across the pond.

MERRICK: Once you’re gone, I’m going to start using that as my greeting.

AARON: Well, I wish my name was like that one guy, the Allonge, Reginald Braithwaite.

[Laughter]

AARON: Where it’s like your name’s in British.

JOE: Yes. Your accent, no. Oh, I would have my name be Benedict Cumberbatch.

AARON: That’s pretty British too, that name.

JOE: That’s a very British name, yeah.

AARON: Wellington something.

[Laughter]

JAMISON: Then you would be the archduke of JavaScript.

AARON: Yeah.

JOE: Oh, that would be an awesome title.

AARON: That’d be great. It’s a good title.

MERRICK: So Jamison, do you want to talk about why we have Aaron on the show?

JAMISON: Yeah, I was going to ask him to introduce himself.

AARON: Oh, great. I’m a web developer at an awesome company called Domo.
