Go Time: Golang, Software Engineering episodes

  • That's Go Time!

    Mat gathers the entire cast (sans Natalie, sadly) alongside our producer, Jerod Santo, for one last Go Time. That’s right, this is Go Time’s finale episode. After eight years and 340 episodes, we are going out on top. Join us one last time, you won’t regret it!

    We share our feelings, reminisce on the good times, list some of our favorite moments & share a few opinions, which may (or may not) be unpopular. 😉
