Grumpy old geeks, a weekly talk show hosted by Brian Schultmeister and Jason

0:06.8

DeFilippo discussing the finer points of what went wrong on the internet and who's to blame.

Welcome to Grumpy old geeks and I'm Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister. I want to do a

0:21.2

little throwback here Jason. Back in the day when we first started this podcast we spent a lot of

0:25.6

time talking about running your own show being an independent contractor, running your own company

0:31.4

etc. You know, because I've done that for 20 plus years and you've been on and off in between
