Interview Transcript Patrick: Hello and welcome to the final SitePoint podcast. I’m Patrick O’Keefe, and I’m joined by my usual cohosts, Kevin Dees, Louis Simoneau and Stephan Segravess. Gentlemen, as Michael Jackson once said, “This is it.” How’s it going? Louis: Hey, guys. Stephan: Hi. Patrick: Kevin, do you want to say something? Kevin Dees: I don’t know what to say. Patrick: Forget it. We’ll just skip you then. All right. So, we have quite a show planned for you today. We’re not going to do the stories. We’re not going to do the spotlights. We’ve kind of wrapped that up on the last episode for the final time. Instead, we’re going to be looking back at the past four years of the SitePoint podcast. We’re going to bring on some familiar faces from the past. Like former host, Brad William and Kevin Yank. And, just have a lot of fun reminiscing about the show, where it started, how we made the journey and finally where it ends up at. Stephan: Sounds like fun. Patrick: And without further ado, let’s go ahead and get this show on the road. We now have Brad Williams and Kevin Yank on our show with us back again. Brad, Kevin, welcome back. Brad: Hello. Kevin Yank: Hello. Brad: How’s it going? Patrick: It’s going good.

Kevin Yank: It’s like we never left. It’s the last one. What have you guys been talking about? Patrick: Nothing really. We’re just going to. We were waiting to talk about anything until we got you guys on here. So, I was just looking at the topics right now. Kevin Yank: No, I don’t mean this episode. I mean all this time since we left. Fill me in. Patrick: I don’t know. I don’t know. What happened? Well, there’s Internet Explorer. Right? Louis: Mostly Internet Explorer. Yeah. Patrick: Mostly Internet Explorer. Brad: So, you picked up right where we left off is what you’re saying. Patrick: Exactly. It’s all the same. So, you know, you mentioned where we left off and so you know, I think it’s fitting to start like where the show started and I put together a little bit of a timeline, back in the SitePoint forum. It’s a private forum there which I still have access to for probably a limited time. Pull out those spread. So, the first mention of the SitePoint podcast was June 27th, 2007. Okay? And Brad started a thread to ask if there was any interest in a site point podcast, not the SitePoint podcast but just a site point podcast. Brad, [...]
