Special Guests: None

In this episode of Elixir Mix, the panel discusses Elixir and themselves. They talk about how the show got started, what each of the panelists are wanting to get out of the show, and how each of them got into Elixir themselves. They stress the fact that they want this show to make a difference in the Elixir community, give Elixir a bigger audience, and allow people to see what big and amazing things are happening with the language.

In particular, we dive pretty deep on:
