In a hilariously overtired episode, the trio – Brett Terpstra, Christina Warren, and freshly 50 Jeff Severns Guntzel – shares personal updates and tech tidbits. Jeff reflects on turning 50 and throws an TV-themed party filled with nostalgia and sentimentality. Christina bids farewell to GitHub, navigating the emotions of her final day on MLK Day 2025. Brett, struggling with health issues, excitedly delves into the intricacies of DevonThink and shares his disdain for buses. Together, they discuss old tech software, film reviews, and geek out on imaginary Linux sponsorships. It’s heartfelt, chaotic, and genuinely overtired.
