Cross Cutting Concerns Podcast

For this year's C# Advent, I decided to finally implement an idea that I've been kicking around for a couple of years now. It's a parody of Baz Luhrmann's Everybody's Free (To Wear Sunscreen) track from 1997.

I commissioned the help of voice actor Noah Jenkins (on Twitter @GeekyVoices) to bring a voice to my writing, and I laid his voice over a karaoke version of the song. (By the way, if you need voicework, I can highly recommend him!) Please enjoy! Make sure to check out all the other great entries into this year's C# Advent. I look forward to doing it again next year. Lyrics: Coders, developers, software engineers, and programmers in the

You can contact me or check out my sponsorship gig on Fiverr This episode is different than a normal episode of Cross Cutting Concerns! This episode is about an R-Rated movie!

Thank you for being a loyal listener of Cross Cutting Concerns. This is a very short episode, but stay tuned until the end of the episode for a little sneak peak at what's coming next year. I've really enjoy making these shows, and I hope you find them useful! I'll be back with new episodes in 2019. In the meantime, there are a few things you can do to help support the show. First, if you are using any podcast platform that allows reviews, especially iTunes, leaving a review is very helpful, and helps people find the show. Second, I've started a new "feedback" page. You can submit ideas and vote on other's ideas. Go to crosscuttingconcerns.com/podcast and click on the LEAVE FEEDBACK button. I'm especially interested in suggestions for future guests, your thoughts on the JavaScript game this year, and what topics you'd like to hear covered. More COBOL? Less JavaScript? More Nintendo emulation? Less ColdFusion? I want to know. This year was the best year yet, but I think next year

We had an extended discussion about Redis licensing that I cut just due to time constraints,
