THE HOST
Jorge Díaz
I’ve worked in IT since 2005, but coding? That part came later. Beers & Code is where I document what it’s really like to learn development as a late bloomer — while balancing life, parenting, and everything in between.
THE PODCAST
Beers and Code
Beers & Code is a developer podcast where I share the ups, downs, and debug logs of learning web development later in life. From JavaScript struggles to Laravel wins, it’s about progress — not perfection.

FAQ
Or why a new podcast?
01
Why English?
Practicing English while learning to code — double the challenge, but also double the growth. So yeah, apologies for the accent… but I’m showing up anyway.
02
I don't drink... Why beer?
It’s more about the vibe than the drink. Whether it’s water, tea, or beer, this podcast is about honest conversations — the kind you’d have with a friend after a long day.
03
Why now?
Because I finally stopped waiting for the “perfect moment.” The journey had to start sometime — and this is it.
04
Aren't you too old?
Maybe. But I’m doing it anyway. Learning to code at 38 with a toddler isn’t easy… but here we are.
