We chat this episode about ACPE Mentoring. Emilie and Jeff catch us up on the genesis of this collaboration, their hopes, plans, and how to get involved. It's an invitation for ACPE folks young and old, from early career techs to engineers who started back when Ethernet topped out at 10 Mbit/s. Marc honors his former coach who observed ”If you're green you're growing, if you're ripe you're rotting.” And Rachel (discovered in post production) used the word 'trope' twice.
*Oh, and DJ Diesel (also known as Shaquille O'Neal) commands the mosh pit.
