In this episode, Josh and Cory talk about the best training - courses, cohorts, and conferences - and then there's a lot of discussion about vacations as a child. And then they vaguely recap like 3 bachelor parties they both attended. In the middle, Josh's wife notes that they're missing a gas line in their house. It's a weird episode. Kind of.

In this rather long episode, we're joined by our friend Cameron to discuss commuting, beaches and whether they should include bug bug spray, the art of solving a real problem versus a stated one, how to keep from becoming disheartened in consulting, consulting as an independent, balancing relationships, the septuagenarian activities of an HOA, pro bono consulting, fancy ice cubes, and being a change agent.

In this episode, we talk about different types of scotch, "home" and "hill people," a whole thing on people who don't know to walk on the left and stand on the right on metro escalators and the parallel to organizational consulting, and then millenials and whether we are them.

In this episode, we discuss Josh's experience in Paris during the December attacks, Josh getting a new gig, there is some exciting banter around prime-sub relationships, we talk traveling for work, and then we talk about the absurd prospect of living anywhere other than the greater DC area.

In this episode, Josh and Cory discuss crazy schedules, recruiting, and fitting into a team. They also speak fondly of working on the same team years ago. This episode was recorded outside on a Sunday morning and so a lot of filtering went into the audio which mostly worked out - it gets a bit tinny in a few short sections and, also, Josh refuses to speak directly into the microphone so there's that.

Josh and Cory are joined by Neil - a friend that works in an incubator (!) and is also a public transportation/map making expert. They discuss whether Crystal Pepsi was innovative, the concept of Startup Culture, whether certain shirts should be untucked, the X2 bus in DC, and Josh reveals that he stores cash at the bottom of yogurt cups.

Josh and Cory discuss the ebb and flow of consulting work throughout the year, especially around the holidays. Then they move on to more pressing topics like DC's weather and traffic patterns, the safety of public phone booths, and the fact that video rentals used to be a thing.

Josh and Cory discuss titles - as in professional titles within an organization or on a business card - as well as some financial advice and just a bit on the crazy amount of time and money spent on everyday computer problems.

Josh and Cory discuss the process of naming things. They also cover driving near and around the Pentagon, Red Robin french fry rationing, Surge (the soda), and truly awful PowerPoint slides. Toward the end of minute 17, they actually come up with the name for the podcast.
