Friend #6 - Matt Wynne
Matt Wynne joins me in episode 6 of Elixir Friends!
We chat about how an English man landed in Canada among draft dodgers, about being a ski bum, skateboarding as we get older, my path from Bolivia to the U.S., and how I got into programming. We also talk about how he got involved with Cucumber, how he's the author of 3 books (mostly 1, he says), the business around Cucumber, and how that team adopted mobbing as a programming technique.

Andrew Ek joins me in the 4th episode of Elixir Friends!
I discover his past as poet and professor (and I think we should get his published works), and his present past-time: tennis. We also talk about software consulting being more than just writing code, and we even dive into cognitive load theory!

We talk about what's going on in his life, including tech gear, putting Indie Courses in hibernation mode, live streaming again, and more! We also get a delicious description of one of his favorite foods... but you probably have to go to Germany to get it.
