<p>I recently had <a href="/podcast/27-drupalisms">my first podcast episode with two guests</a>, where I discussed Drupal terminology and Drupalisms with Emma Horrell and Luke McCormick.</p>
<p>It was a great episode, but there was something I needed to do before I could release it.</p>
<p>Before I could release the episode, I needed to update my website to show both guest names.</p>
<p>The other 26 episodes only had a single guest per episode, and my podcast pages were built to only show the first guest name.</p>
<p>When building the pages for the <a href="/podcast/1-retrofit">first episode with Matt Glaman</a>, I only needed to show a single guest name.</p>
<p>There was no need to show multiple guest names until I had an episode with multiple guests.</p>
<p>I wrote the simplest code to achieve the requirements I had at the time.</p>
<p>If I wrote for two guests but never had an episode with two guests, my website would be bloated and have functionality that wasn't needed or used.</p>
<p>Now my requirements have changed.</p>
<p>I can have an episode with one or two guests, but not three or more guests.</p>
<p>If I have an episode with more than two guests, I'll write that functionality then.</p>
<p>But not before.</p>
