On this week's episode of the podcast, freeCodeCamp founder Quincy Larson interviews Scott Hanselman. Scott's a developer at Microsoft, a prolific teacher, and has hosted the Hanselminutes podcast for nearly two decades.

We talk about:

- How he leads a fully-remote team from his home of Portland, Oregon

- His 11-year journey to getting his degree

- What he learned from teaching programming at community college

- What he's learned about software development from recording 980 podcast interviews across 20 years

Can you guess what song I'm playing on my bass during the intro? It's from a 1994 punk song.

Also, I want to thank the 9,779 kind people who support our charity each month, and who make this podcast possible. You can join them and support our mission at: https://www.freecodecamp.org/donate
