Episode 40. Don't you hate when static gives you an unexpected jolt? (Discussion on static methods,classes, and inner classes)

So you have programmed for a while, and may even never realized that you have been using them, but there are static methods (which in turn can create static classes), inner classes and static inner classes. Sometimes is hard to understand why or when to use these, but never fear! After listening to this episode you will never get an unexpected static surprise! Follow Me on Twitter! (@fguime) (thanks!)
