This looks interesting. Can't wait to give it a listen! Has anyone already done so? Reviews?

I listened to the first episode and it was really interesting to listen to really experienced programmers share the things they like the most about array programming and the array-oriented languages they are most familiar with.

An interesting episode. Recommended.

One of the presenters is a novice with c++ background and the rest all are experts in their respective array programming languages.

It's good. They've got representatives of all the major array language communities among the hosts (APL, J, K/Q) plus a C++ guy.

No fortran guy?

I think the goal in bringing in a C++ programmer was to provide an outsider view, but no, no Fortran guy. I don't think Fortran is an array language in that arrays are not the only datastructures in Fortran, though?
