Description
Two IT nerds and longtime friends discuss technology, ethics, life, relationships, artificial intelligence, and a wide range of nonsense. While going on early morning walks for exercise, Sean Snodgrass and Kris Tyte realized others may (or more than likely may not) want to hear the kinds of things they talk about. Positively Pedestrian Podcast is aptly named. They are optimistic, positive-thinking people, they are walking, and understand that their point of view on pretty much everything is going to be rather pedestrian.
