Episode description from the original podcast:

“I am joined by the BIM famous Steve Stafford.  Steve has been a regular on BIMThoughts even though this is the first episode he has recorded with me. It seems that it’s not a BIMThoughts Podcast without mentioning his name. Steve and I talk cars, how he started with Revit, what it’s like to be a part of RTC and AUGI, what new features we should look out for in Revit 2016, and what it is like to be a full-time independent Revit consultant.”
