In this supper club episode of Syntax, Wes and Scott talk with Jared Palmer about Turbo Repo, how it fits in your tech stack, and what it was like being acquired by Vercel.

Whiskey Web and Whatnot - Sponsor

Whiskey Web and Whatnot is different than your typical dev podcast. We show a lighter, more human side of developers you know and love, like a fireside chat with your favorite devs. Past guests include Tom Preston-Werner, Kent C. Dodds, Charlie Gerard, and of course Wes Bos! We have discussed everything from Next.js and TypeScript to Chuck’s past life as a blackjack dealer, Cincinnati Chili, the best casseroles, and of course whiskey!
