Aaron Newcomb
Executive Producer, Host
Aaron spent his days as a child tearing apart anything mechanical and sorting the various gears and motors into bins to be used later for all sorts of experiments. He broke his teeth in computing on a 16K TRS-80 Color Computer from Radio Shack. In college, Aaron majored in Communications and minored in Broadcasting at just about the same time that the Internet came into being. Unfortunately for his grade point average, this meant that he spent way to much time running around on various MUDs (precursor to today's MMORPGs) and playing the original version of Sid Meier's Civilization and Castle Wolfenstein. He has had 11+ years of professional IT experience and has spent the last 6 of them as a Storage Architect for companies like Hewlett Packard and Procter & Gamble. He currently works as a Senior Systems Engineer for Sun Microsystems. Aaron believes that open source will someday rule the world.

Brian Burgess
Producer, Host
Brian currently serves as Executive Director of Family First PAC, a Cincinnati, Ohio based political group that sponsors local, state and political candidates. He is also co-founder of the iPatriot Foundation, an internet-based organization dedicated to encouraging ordinary citizens to run for office by utilizing the internet to gain leverage. Brian is also a Certified Forensic Interviewer, holds a Bachelor's Degree in Business Administration from Friends University in Wichita, Kansas and is a military veteran who served three years in the United States Army, including 16 months in the Republic of Korea as a communications specialist. For some reason, Brian believes all these experiences make him uniquely qualified to comment on the implications and applications of the open source movement.
Brian resides in Cincinnati, Ohio with his wife and two sons. He considers himself to be a news and political commentary addict with conservative political beliefs.
