I am your guest host, Jamison Dance. Chuck is at LoneStar Ruby Conf this week. We have Merrick Christensen. MERRICK:  What’s up? JAMISON:  We have Joe Eames. JOE:  Hey there. JAMISON:  And we have an incredibly special guest, Aaron Frost. AARON:  Hello. MERRICK:  [Laughter] What? JAMISON:  And he is not British. AARON:  Coming from across the pond. MERRICK:  Once you’re gone, I’m going to start using that as my greeting. AARON:  Well, I wish my name was like that one guy, the Allonge, Reginald Braithwaite. [Laughter] AARON:  Where it’s like your name’s in British. JOE:  Yes. Your accent, no. Oh, I would have my name be Benedict Cumberbatch. AARON:  That’s pretty British too, that name. JOE:  That’s a very British name, yeah. AARON:  Wellington something. [Laughter] JAMISON:  Then you would be the archduke of JavaScript. AARON:  Yeah. JOE:  Oh, that would be an awesome title. AARON:  That’d be great. It’s a good title. MERRICK:  So Jamison, do you want to talk about why we have Aaron on the show? JAMISON:  Yeah, I was going to ask him to introduce himself. AARON:  Oh, great. I’m a web developer at an awesome company called Domo. JOE:  But what’s your official title? AARON:  Officially, I don’t know. What are you playing at? [Laughter] AARON:  Maybe an open web strategist. JOE:  There you go. JAMISON:  Social media expert? AARON:  I don’t know. But I work on our UI team and we’re getting ready to push out a really awesome release that everyone’s going to love. I’m also an author. I’ve published a short book with O’Reilly in May and working on another book. Special Guest: Aaron Frost.
