Magpie Talkshow Episode 2 - Venkat Subramaniam

In this week's episode, I speak to Venkat Subramaniam. Venkat seems to have the stamina of 5 normal people - whenever I start to feel sorry for myself about my own hectic schedule, I look at what Venkat is up to and realise that I have no cause to complain. Aside from being a serial author, and conference speaker, Venkat also finds time to do consulting and training too, all while continuing to be incredibly passionate about his work. In this interview we talk about many things, but in particular functional programming and how you might be able to try it out in environments that are otherwise a bit more traditional.

We caught up in what I thought would be a nice quiet location at NDC Oslo, only to find that I had placed us next to a coffee machine. I'll get this right one day.
