October 30, 2024Episode 0051: My Politics
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Election season 2024 is about to come to an end—of the beginning—but is it the beginning of the end? We may all know soon enough, this time around, in the mean time it is worthwhile I think for each of us to ponder how we got here, and why, by taking a look at our own politics. I´ll go first.

October 23, 2024Episode 0050: Being Online
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo

October 16, 2024Episode 0049: Carmen
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Another college story, sort of. Harvey Mudd College was many things, some good, some bad, most an academic challenge unexpected but not insurmountable.

October 09, 2024Episode 0048: Still Car Free Care Free
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: I have been Car Free for about eight years now, and at this point I cannot imagine purchasing a vehicle simply to have a vehicle. Awful ride share business models, rentals, public transit, bicycles and bike-share if you can get it, and walking are all there for me, and for you to whatever degree where you are, so here is my occasional update on why I remain free of car.

Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: The Dot Com Boom was a big thing, and I happened to have been in Silicon Valley for it. For better or worse, though, I only worked at one actual Dot Com during my time, and it was during my Second Tour! An interesting time at Salon.com…

September 25, 2024Episode 0046: Hammer and Notecard
Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Harvey Mudd College is where I went to college. A very small school, with my graduating year sizing up at 151 in, 118 out. Famous for a few things including these two for today, the Honor Code, and E-54. The latter faded away to some different engineering class, the former

Show Notes
Host: Dan Hugo
Summary: Food Trucks are cool and fun and often quite tasty, but they are also often a single, fingers-cross small business taking a chance sometimes in an environment where they are not always loved nor appreciated by their competitors stuck in the ground. Let us speak of Mobile Vendors and Vegas!
