cf.Objective() speakers on CFHour

Fri, 22 Apr 2011 19:30:00 -1200

A couple months ago we started the series on CFHour where we talked to speakers at cf.Objective. With the release of Show 98 we have concluded the series. It took 7 shows and 2 months to get them all out. Some of the shows ended up being a little long but they are all full of great content and worth a listen.

In the end I am very pleased with the outcome. It was a lot of fun to put together. I truly hope that everyone enjoyed listening to the series. Also, a big thank you goes to all the speakers that were on the show. We truly appreciate then taking the time to be a part of this.
