10: Approaching Programmatic Problems
In this episode, I talk about how I approach programmatic problems, and I give all developers my opinionated understanding of the most important factor of problem solving: imparting knowledge into your problem solving mechanisms. Note: there was a bit of an audio issue with the compression on this episode; we'll be fixing it in future episodes. Sorry about that!

7: Part two - The $150,000 Question About Design School
On today's episode, I talk with Nick Morrison and Kody Dahl, both students about to graduate from the design BFA program at Georgia State University, for the second part of our interview. Kody and Nick are both incredibly hard-working folks who happen to also work at Whiteboard. In part two, we have a discussion about their professors, design software, life skills, and we (try) to answer the $150,000 question. A big thanks to Nick and Kody! Follow them: @Nickm717 @kodieodie
7: Part one - An Underground Cohort of Design Professors, with Kody Dahl and Nick Morrison
On today's episode, I talk with Nick Morrison and Kody Dahl, both students about to graduate from the design BFA program at Georgia State University. Kody and Nick are both incredibly hard-working folks who happen to also work at Whiteboard. In part one, we start a discussion on formal design education.

Follow them. @Nickm717 @kodieodie If you enjoyed this episode, please consider buying me some tea.
6: Feelback vs. Feedback
How do you code a feeling? Today, we're going to be talking about how to deal with ambiguous feedback. The answer is kind of ambiguous, unfortunately, but we live in a subjective world, so let's all learn how to value subjective things, shall we? We've managed to hit LESS than 5 minutes on this one! Hope you enjoy it. Up next in the queue is our first interview episode double-release, which is a bit longer, so be on the look out! If you enjoyed this episode, please consider buying me some tea.
5: Addictions
In today's episode, we will not be talking about drugs. For long. Instead, we're going to talk about some kind-of amazingly weird trends in how we use technology, and how we might could be more intentional in the time we spend with screens. We (again) went over the 10 minute mark, but hopefully the discussion is worth the extra half minute to you! If you enjoyed this episode, please consider buying me some tea.
4: Learning about Learning
Learning is one of the most important skills for developers to cultivate. In this episode, I'll talk about why that's the case, and a method for learning you might not have tried before. Today's episode goes just a tad over 10 minutes - I'm doing my best to cut out the cruft, though. If you enjoyed this episode, please consider buying me some tea.
3: Prototypes
Prototyping is a process that bridges the gap between production and static design. In this episode, I talk a bit about what that means, and about what is required for all good prototypes. If you aren't prototyping now, you need to catch up. Edit: I accidentally called the Facebook prototyping tool, Origami, "Paper". Of course, this was a mistake. Sorry about that folks.
2: Focus
In this episode, I talk about focus, and why it's so important for developers to cultivate focus. We'll discuss some pretty amazing statistics about how we use technology, and I challenge you to not listen to this podcast. If you enjoyed this episode, please consider buying me some tea.
1: Introductions, formalities, etc
This is the proverbial "hello" episode, where I tell you what Developer Tea is all about. Developer Tea is born out of my own desire to have shorter podcasts that come out more often. I very rarely have the time to listen to so many of the podcasts I'd like to listen to, because they are just simply too long. Developer Tea is engineered to fit inside your tea (or coffee, or kombucha) break.
