Apparently I have completed >40 interviews which correspond to >10 hours of material as a humble Host at TechTalksCentral.com over 2014. 

I decided to pick a few of my favorites and create this short playlist. Thanks to the TTC production team all the interviewees were of course outstanding, so the choice was made purely on content that I seem to resonate with (also on clips that I didn't hate my speakage too much ;) )

Hope you'll enjoy too.
