LN-QRM #30: Live from Alexandria

Recorded 8/25/11

Hosts: Barry J and Bob Dwyer

This show was recorded in the Residents Inn in Alexandria, Va. That became my second home in August. In this show we meet Bob Dwyer, musician and software engineer. Bob is in a band called The Stink who play gigs in the Manchester, NH area. This is Bob’s first LateNite QRM and, hopefully, not the last. We had a blast recording this show while downing a growler of Port City Brewery’s Porter beer. Enjoy…

LN-QRM #29: Busy Summer

Recorded 8/17/2011

Hosts: Barry J and Michael

I have been doing a lot of business travel the past few months. As a matter of fact, I’ve been on travel more than I’ve been home! That’s why the podcast faded. But we are back and the first thing we have to do is post the handful of podcasts we did do, but I didn’t get a chance to produce and post. So watch the feed. It should be busy for the next couple of days as I try and get caught up, followed by a brand new podcast recorded last wednesday.
