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.

0:16.6

Welcome to Grumpy old geeks, I'm Jason DeFilippo. And I'm Brian Schultmeister. I suppose I should

0:21.8

give a brief health update. I went back and saw my doctor post-surgery. I am cleared for all physical

activity. Everything is healed up nicely, which is unfortunate because now I have to shovel snow

0:33.3
