Customer Reviews
Listen to their words
Pretty awesome.
Better than good
These guys make a simple conversation both entertaining and educational. I listen to every episode.
Refreshingly... frank.
I love this podcast. Chris and Ed are smart, experienced developers with funny no-BS personalities. They have a great schtick and a sardonic perspective that's refreshing in a community as nice as PHP. Avoid like the plague if you are easily offended.
