An Incidental Interview – Epsiode 6 Thursday Sept. 20th 2007 (Randal Schwartz)
Today is a momentous occasion because not only do I get the opportunity to interview a man I find fascinating, I got to do it with my co-host and friend Ken Camp. Ken has agreed to partner up with me on a semi- regular basis, which translated means once or more a month. I am thrilled to have him share this with me. No one I’d want more.
Randal Schwartz. A name and yet so much more. I first met Randal Schwartz on a social network called Jaiku. Not long after, I had the oportunity to meet Randal in person on the set of the TV show, The Lab With Leo Laporte.
After seeing Randal in person I realised I wanted him on my show, but how to convince him he wanted to come on? My best friend and business partner, Ken Camp, went on a campaign with me to encourage and prod Randal into an appearance. He finally capitualted and this is the result.
Randal is a funny man and far too smart for his own good. I hope you enjoy getting to know the famous Perl hacker as much as we did.
