Chit Chat Across the Pond<\/h4>\n

Tom Steven, aka Tom on the Internet from tomontheinternet.com<\/a> joins me this week on Chit Chat Across the Pond Lite to tell the tale of how he went from knowing zero about programming to landing a full-time job as a web developer in two years of self-training. Then he talks about the things that surprised him that he learned as a developer in that first year. In listening to Tom, you\u2019ll feel like he\u2019s not extraordinary and like maybe you could do this too. That is, if you\u2019re willing to put the time and energy into teaching yourself all with a laptop and the Internet. I found Tom delightful and entertaining and inspiring, and I hope you will too.<\/p>\n

You can find this episode of Chit Chat Across the Pond Lite in your podcatcher of choice or you can listen right over at www.podfeet.com\/…<\/a>. By the way, Tom has joined our Slack community (at podfeet.com\/slack<\/a>) so give him a shout if you have any questions or comments about this episode.<\/p>\n

We’ve got a ton of great content for you this week. Steve has produced four more of the interviews we did at CES, and we even picked up an interview at Podcast Movement Evolutions in Los Angeles. And because I can’t seem to stop creating content, I’ve got two stories to tell and a discussion with my buddy Dean that you’ll enjoy.<\/p>\n

Our hero of the week is good friend of the show Troy Shimkus. Troy is our hero because he’s the latest NosillaCastaway to become a patron. He simply went to podfeet.com\/patreon<\/a> and selected a dollar amount to pledge to help the show each week and he was done. Now I know these are hard-earned dollars but here’s how Troy explained his decision. He took stock of the services he gets for free, like entertainment and news. He decided that he should be contributing more to those that he finds great value in. Ken Ray and I got the Patreon deal and Ihefinally got a digital subscription to my local paper.<\/p>\n

Thank you Troy for becoming our hero of the week.<\/p>\n
