Zack, as a fellow autodidact I'm curious what attracted you to coding in the first place?

This outline was written after I read Zack's book and will hit some highlights from the book but there are too many topics to cover in a simple podcast. At the end of the episode we'll tell you about the special deal Zack is giving our listeners and how you too can get a copy of Code For Cash.
