    404 Script Not Found: Wearable Tech
    May 1 2025
    Kat is an Oura Ring snob, and thinks Apple Watches are "trash," while Ian is #TeamAppleWatch. We then get into voice memos and how many texts the average person we get each day (turns out Ian needs more friends)! We wrap up talking VR goggles and glasses, and how we think it may be a bridge too far, even if the Webex roadmap has a lot of cool stuff in it like holograms!

    404 Script Not Found: Gaslighting LinkedIn
    Apr 24 2025
    Kat is back from her wedding, and everyone is circling back with her, which begs the question: do you reply to sales reps who slide into your LinkedIn DMs? What about cold emails? Ian shares a tip to help filter out spam on LinkedIn, and maybe even make your profile more memorable. We then try to figure out how spam filters work before coming up with some solutions of our own...sorry if you are in purgatory!

    404 Script Not Found: eComm
    Apr 17 2025
    Full disclosure: Ian sounds like he is underwater (but is just stuffed up). Not all heroes wear capes. We jump in by discussing how AI is changing the eComm game. Then discuss the need for making eComm in the channel more prevalent and easier, utilizing what we see in B2C. We wrap up with Kat's questionable relationship with sales (and tee up a future episode). Another (mildly) educational, but very fun episode!

    Why Even 1% Packet Loss Can Impact User Experiences
    Apr 11 2025
    Packet loss can be bad news for network flows and customer experience.

    404 Script Not Found: Working in Tech
    Apr 10 2025
    We start with a recap of Ian's trip to Japan (spoiler: it was awesome). We then get to discussing Webex backgrounds with some very serious opinions - are you a virtual background person? We wrap up by identifying ways to create balance at work, especially at a company that is heavy on meetings. Also, we definitely don't want to return-to-office, but we do want to see people in person (trust us, this makes sense). All in all, a great, somewhat off the rails episode!
