In our second episode, your host Ben Higgins introduces himself as a self-proclaimed Geek.

Following that introduction, Ben talks about online communities and how they began in the early days. Remember the FidoNet BBS?

Finally, at the end of each show we will bring a podsafe music selection. Listen to hear Ben's choice.
