043: A Lone Star PHP 2016 Special
Apr 15, 2016 @ 14:22:43

The PHP Roundtable podcast has posted their latest episode recorded live at the Lone Star PHP Conference that just happened in Dallas, Texas. In it host Sammy Powers is joined by a big cast of characters: Chris Tankersley, Anthony Ferrara, Jeremy Mikola, Elizabeth Smith, Daniel Cousineau, Magnus Nordlander and Jared Farrish.

We record live from Lone Star PHP 2016 in Dallas, TX. We discuss what DI Containers aren't, tradeoffs to making things easy, how to improve your dev skills, repercussions of depending on Composer, PHP 7.1 features and we give away a white Confoo elePHPant.

Unfortunately the internet connection at the venue wasn't great, so the video/audio quality is a bit lacking. You can still watch and listen to the episode through the in-page audio and video player or directly on YouTube.

PHP Town Hall:
Episode 41: Loosely Town Hall - Dallas Edition
May 19, 2015 @ 17:48:24

The PHP Town Hall podcast has posted their latest episode recorded live at the Lone Star PHP conference this year (2015). In episode 41, Loosely Town Hall - Dallas Edition, they're joined by Loosely Coupled podcast hosts Jeff Carouth and Matt Frost.

This episode is brought to you from thunderstruck Dallas, as part of the awesome conference that is Lone Star PHP. We are joined once again by the dynamic duo Jeff Carouth and Matt Frost off of the Loosely Coupled podcast!

We mostly make a bunch of bad jokes then drag up the audience to talk about stuff. Lets be honest, this was a bit of a crapshoot, but Elizabeth Smith goes into some detail on PECL and the problems of ownership. PSR-7 is chatted about for the 19th time and Jordi talks a bit about pickles. Also, we debate “haytch” vs. “atch” as the correct pronunciation of the “H” in HTTP. Important stuff.

You can listen to this latest episode either via the in-page audio player or by downloading the mp3 of the show. If you enjoy it, be sure to subscribe to their feed to get the latest episodes as they're released in the future.
