This very first Raconteur Denver event took place at the Denver Bicycle Cafe on January 12, 2016. The topic of the night was 'Firsts'. Our raconteurs this episode were Kris Drickey, Brian Smith and Khadijah Queen.

We tackle a few more interesting new musical gadgets, like the Touché and Bitwig. Also: AC/DC ends every song the same way, bad sound mixing advice, and Shure's interesting new dual-diaphragm mic, the KSM8! Picks of the week: Kelley Stoltz and Mike Moll.

Twitter breaking the timeline is a bad thing for everyone (except advertisers.) Never fear though, Lyons solves the problem and he's giving the idea away for free!

We celebrate TWO YEARS of weekly Flipping Tables episodes by discussing how podcasting has changed - for us personally as well as a whole. Also: a rundown of intriguing new podcast tools aimed at making the medium more accessible to those interested in getting started.

Polly and Shelby celebrate a whole year of talking at each other while hosting this podcast. Reminiscing happens and it's wonderful. A new segment brings deeper discussion of diversity in film and tv. Also: quick Bachelor updates and looking ahead to February shows coming back.

Jon Benjamin makes a bad jazz album, Apple releases an intruiging new Music Memos app, and we are wowed by the innovations of Melodyne. POTW: Sleater-Kinney's Modern Girl and October Surprise's There Is No Grace In It.

Lyons tries to do Social Media right. Medium might not be the best place to write. And journaling apps, can they actually make your write more?

Lyons is back with followup on smart bras and conversational UIs. VR sure wants to be a thing, but it doesn't have a killer app even in gaming. Will Portal 3 be it?

Polly dubs 2016 the year of the movie - even though we have no idea what she means by that. We missed the Golden Globes, we prep for the Oscars, and of course there is a recap of recent Bachelor escapades. Also: New Years Resolutions (late) and playoff football.

In this episode, we discuss the validity of the "manic pixie dream girl" and attempt to throw her out the window. Meredith reads her first graphic novel, Jeannette sets a new book-o-lution, and Tara visits DC for their first in person recording session!
