Today is Monday, October 29, 2018, and this is show number 703.<\/p>\n<p>We got our son Kyle married off this weekend to Nikki and it was a total blast. It&#8217;s fun when the families get along. I expected that but I didn&#8217;t expect how much fun her friends would be.  Steve and I danced from about 7pm till midnight, almost non stop. I&#8217;ve got ice on my right knee as a result, because I&#8217;m 60 but I don&#8217;t regret a bit of it.  I appreciate you all being patient enough to wait until Monday night for me to do the show.<\/p>\n<p>Steve and I hope to see you all in the chat room tomorrow for the Apple announcement.  Head over to <a href=\"https:\/\/podfeet.com\/chat\">podfeet.com\/chat<\/a> at 7 AM Pacific Time so we can all get giddy with excitement together.<\/p>\n<h4>Chit Chat Across the Pond<\/h4>\n<p>I get a lot of PR emails trying to get me to interview people. I\u2019ve never responded to one until now. I was asked if I wanted to interview a former NASA Space Shuttle Engineer turned science fiction author named Darren Beyer. How could I possibly refuse?<\/p>\n<p>In Chit Chat Across the Pond Lite this week, I had the great pleasure of interviewing Darren about his amazing adventures.  Darren\u2019s stories were fascinating as he described being one of the last people tramping around in the cargo bay of the Shuttle before the astronauts got into it to go to space. What a crazy dream job!<\/p>\n<p>We then shifted gears into talking his science fiction books. He\u2019s got two books out in The Anghazi Series, book one called \u201cCasimir Bridge\u201d and book two was just released, called \u201cPathogen Protocol\u201c. After I got off the air with Darren, I said, &#8220;You know we&#8217;re friends now, that&#8217;s all there is to it.&#8221;  Loved talking to him and I think you&#8217;ll enjoy the conversation as much as we did.<\/p>\n<p>Because we&#8217;re nerds, a conversation about NASA engineering and science fiction is considered &#8220;lite&#8221; so you can find this episode in Chit Chat Across the Pond Lite or in the full Chit Chat Across the Pond feed in your podcatcher of choice.

It&#8217;s like being a patron of the arts. Only it&#8217;s a podcast. And it&#8217;s about tech not art.  So totally the same.  Anyway Clan went to <a href=\"http:\/\/patreon.com\/podfeet\">podfeet.com\/patreon<\/a> and signed up to contribute a dollar amount a week to help us continue to produce the shows. He felt there was enough value in the knowledge he gains and the entertainment value of the shows we produce here.  It&#8217;s that value for value thing that really makes Patreon a great way to contribute to the show. If you&#8217;ve got some spare money just taking up room in your bank account, please consider being a patron and show your support like Clan and the other fine patrons.<\/p>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.podfeet.com\/blog\/2018\/10\/wonky-wifi\/\">Testing Wonky WiFi with Wireless Diagnostics App<\/a><\/h4>\n<p>That&#8217;s going to wind this up for this week.
