In this episode, Malcolm Peralty and I discuss what I’ve been up to the past year and what some of my plans are for WP Mainline. We also talk about Automattic’s acquisition of Pocket Casts, a critical security vulnerability discovered in WooCommerce, and how I solved a pesky JSON error in the block editor.

After listening to this episode, I’ll have to mess around with my pop filter and how far away I am from the microphone. I noticed a lot of pops and my levels were pretty high. I apologize and will work on that for the next episode.
