While editing this episode, I noticed that my voice routinely goes from quiet to loud. I’m not sure why this is and suspect it has something to do with Windows 10. I apologize for the audio quality and will try to have it fixed by next week’s show.
In this episode, John James Jacoby and I discuss the recent acquisition of the Google Analytics Dashboard for WordPress plugin, rebuilding the WordPress edit screen, and an in-depth conversation on the concerns expressed surrounding WordPress 4.9.6. We send a shout out to Alex Mills, get an update on John’s stolen goats, and rant about lawn care power equipment.

Thank you for the coverage of the release of 4.9.6 and spreading awareness about the impacts of that major release. Some will agree with my view, some won’t. At the end of the day, all this happens because we love the web and what we can share though softwares like WordPress.
