Het hield de afgelopen 5 jaar de gemoederen onder Efteling-liefhebbers flink bezig: de plannen voor de uitbreiding van de Efteling aan de oostzijde, en dan met name de bouw van een circuscoaster voor de hele familie, Grand Circus Balancé! Beetje bij beetje sijpelde er steeds meer informatie naar buiten over dit indrukwekkende project, tot begin 2023 het nieuws naar buiten kwam dat de plannen definitief geannuleerd zouden zijn. Natuurlijk stonden we bij Kleine Boodschap al eerder stil bij de plannen, maar om dit trauma te verwerken wilden we nog één keer uitgebreid stilstaan bij Grand Circus Balancé. En dat is precies wat we deze aflevering doen! Samen met Wessel Wit, hoofdredacteur van pretparknieuwssite Looopings, nemen we alle uitgelekte plannen voor de circuscoaster tot in detail door, we bespreken wat we ervan vinden, en nemen ceremonieel afscheid...

Desperately Seeking Susan (remember when Madonna was hot?). Teen Wolf. Tuff Turf. Weird Science. Spies Like Us. Just One of the Guys. Moonlighting...yeah, 1985 was a great year, and episode 85 of our weekly broadcast wasn't too shabby either. With our guests from the Detroit Craftsman Guild and Solstice Consulting Group, we had a whole bunch of good things to talk about... We started off with the news, stories and events that caught our eye over the past week after our 1985 flavored intro wrapped up.  We chatted about the remade version of Poltergeist that's hitting theaters next month, the return of the X-Files, Walking Dead's season finale, how if you ever shopped at Radio Shack you need to be paying attention since they're selling all of their collected customer data over the years during their bankruptcy liquidation, how a couple wound up driving off a bridge that had been closed since 2009 because their GPS told them to, the prisoner in Europe that got access to a phone and faked his own release letter via email to the prison...and it worked...and so, so much more. We're testing out with a new sponsor again this week, so here's this week's offer to go try out. Guys, we all shave, and razors and replacement blades can be ridiculously expensive. So when Harry's reached out and wanted to give things a shot with us, they sent us each a starter kit to check out...and, well, we're talking about them, and you know us, so that says it all right there.  Solid products, great pricing, and we even have a discount code for you to make their prices even better.  Hit https://www.harrys.com/, check out their starter sets - that start at only $15, mind you - and then use code ITintheD at checkout to take $5 off. After a flashback music break, we hopped in with James York.  He teaches classes over at Grand Circus when he's not at his day job over at Lochbridge, and does a whole bunch of other stuff, but we specifically had him him to chat about his work with the Detroit Craftsman Guild.  If you're not familiar with them, they're an offshoot of the excellent Craftsman Guild in Ann Arbor, and the goal is creating a technology-agnostic user group for local Detroit software professionals who want to stay current in an industry in which there's no way to stay totally current. The current plan is to have a healthy mix of hard and soft talks (tech vs. dev practices) as well as hands-on coding events from time to time.  They meet up on the third Tuesday of every month over at Detroit Labs, and it sounds like they've definitely got something going on that's worth checking out.  Give them a look at http://www.meetup.com/Detroit-Craftsman-Guild/ We had a "couple skate" music break, and then we dove in with a guy who wears a lot of hats due to his varied interests, Steven Acho.  He's the managing director of Solstice Consulting Group, a recruiting company that takes a different approach than many others.  He's a musician with more than 3,000,000 downloads of his music.  He's an author who's written a book titled Why Technology Recruiting is Broken and What to do about it.  Needless to say, we had a great chat with Steve.  We talked about what Solstice Consulting Group does differently and their views on hiring talent and firing clients.  Lots of great stuff.  Follow up and check him out at http://www.steveacho.com/, grab his book at http://www.amazon.com/Technology-Recruiting-Broken-What-about-ebook/dp/B00U80A7I2/, and click on over to Solstice Consulting Group at http://www.scg360.com/ For our fourth and final segment, we doubled back on some of our earlier topics and wrapped up with our guests for the night.

IT in the D, Episode 66. This episode was pretty much exactly what it needed to be. We were joined by two great guests talking about things they're doing around the area, ranging from an upcoming comic convention to zombie themed energy drinks and sodas to a new group getting off the ground helping people learn how to code and how to transition into a career in information technology...if that's what they really want to do. And, of course, there was the elephant in the room... Guests: Dennis L Barger, Jr: Wonderworld Comics, Detroit Fanfare and Deadworld premium zombie beverages Alan Languirand: Apprend In our opening segment, we talked about our talk last week over at the Detroit Regional Chamber with Social Media Club Detroit about How Not To Suck at LinkedIn, as well as our upcoming event this Thursday over at Stray Cat Lounge. As a reminder, details on all of our upcoming events can be found here on the site - http://www.itinthed.com/meet/, on our Facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/ITinTheD, or in our Meetup group - http://www.meetup.com/ITintheD/ Hope to see everyone on Thursday night! And then...well, then we didn't really get into our usual discussion of news and items that had caught our eye over the previous week, mostly because the only thing that caught our eye was the stick that got poked into it. So yes, we talked about the elephant in the room for the better part of the entire first segment.  No clue what we're talking about? No worries, just skip ahead to the second segment.  But if you do, yes, if you think you know what I meant, or what my intentions are, or how I think...particularly if you're basing that solely off of how someone else wrote...do yourself, and me, a favor and at least listen to the first segment.  I assure you it's worth the listen. In our second segment, we dove in with Alan Languirand, who's launched something pretty cool downtown.  Leveraging his own background as a designer by training who became a developer by necessity, he has been a teacher for both Grand Circus and our friends at Girl Develop It, and now he's striking out on his own in forming Apprend.  Apprend is a group for people passionate about software and technology education. You should join Apprend if you want to learn about technology as a student, want to teach others about tech in a classroom / workshop environment, or are a tech professional that wants to connect with other in a more casual and social setting.  Great conversation with Alan, and we expect good things from Apprend moving forward.  Find out more about Apprend, and register for their first scheduled class, out at http://apprend.org/ For our third segment, we talked with Dennis L Barger Jr, a guy with about as many irons in as many fires as us...if not more.  He owns and runs Wonderworld Comics, a comics and collectibles store in Taylor.  He's organizing Detroit Fanfare, a comic con taking place in February of 2015 that you're going to want to be at.  He's involved with Deadworld premium zombie beverages, and was at the premiere event that I was at this past Friday.  It also turns out that Dennis and I have some shared history from more than a decade ago, and we didn't even remember each other from a hilariously off the wall night that we dove into a little bit. Our final segment was the usual wrap up with our guests on points that we'd neglected to hit earlier, as well as just some closing thoughts. Oh, and the premiere of something new we're playing with..."Real Detroit Heroes".  Enjoy. We'll see you Thursday night, and listen live again next week for more fun.
