Hello world! It’s Mike Traverso with the Friends that Code podcast where I get a chance to showcase some amazing people I know that just happen to write code for a living. Whether they started off intending to code or just happened into it, we get to hear about the types of people you'll meet, things you'll get to do, jobs you'll have along the way, and advice from some awesome coders along the way!
