In our nineteenth episode, we were thrilled to have Connie Malamed, The eLearning Coach, join us for a conversation that could have easily lasted another couple of hours. We covered more about being a consultant, design thinking and design processes, and some of our favorite podcasts.

We’ve both been big fans of Connie’s for a long time… check out her blog, book, and iPhone app!

The drinks:

Brian drank a buddy’s homemade barley wine.

Judy drank Elysian Avatar Jasmine IPA.

Connie drank water.
