Drew and James open the show with some breaking news. Then jump pretty quickly into the meetups around town. Drew gives a quick review of the Warcraft movie. The guest for this episode is Peter Thompson from AtlanticFusion. The interview starts at 0:30:00.

Peter has just settled down from a 9 month trip to various cities. He has been in Vancouver for a little over a month now, but he is already planning to make an impact. He has a really interesting past from working in Calgary, working for Code For America in San Francisco, and travelling in the cities of Canada.
