Simply Magical Data

In this episode of the Agile Data Podcast, host Shane Gibson sits down with Juan Sequeda, the principal scientist and head of the AI lab at data.world, and an expert in data integration and Semantic Web technologies.

In this episode, the conversation explores the intricate world of knowledge graphs and business semantics. Juan explains how a knowledge graph operates as a flexible framework that makes real-world concepts and their relationships first-class citizens, extracting meaning out of isolated application code and linking it directly to the data. By focusing on business literacy and well-defined ontologies, knowledge graphs ensure that your architecture remains highly resilient and agile enough to handle the unknown use cases of tomorrow.

The discussion also dives deep into the complexities of data integration, clarifying the crucial role of unique global identifiers. Juan breaks down how adopting web-based identifier standards, such as URIs, prevents ambiguity—like confusing the word “fire” as a termination, a weapon, or heat—and achieves seamless integration across multiple systems by definitively codifying real-world entities.

Whether you are curious about how to build enterprise ontologies, how LLMs and knowledge graphs are combining to increase AI accuracy from 16% to 54%, or want to learn why your data catalog should be built on a graph architecture, this episode is packed with valuable insights for data professionals

Simply Magical Data Ways of Working

In this episode of the Agile Data N’ Info Podcast, host Shane Gibson sits down with Kat Greenbrook, founder of Rogue Penguin, author of The Data Storyteller’s Handbook, and an expert in data visualization and data storytelling.

In this episode, the conversation explores the intricate world of data storytelling and the ABT (And, But, Therefore) narrative framework. Kat explains how the ABT model operates as a flexible framework that makes audience engagement and clear messaging first-class citizens, extracting meaning out of complex analytics and linking it directly to actionable business goals. By focusing on simple narrative structures and audience motivation rather than just overwhelming numbers, the ABT framework ensures that your data communication remains highly impactful and clear enough to drive real business change.

The discussion also dives deep into the complexities of visual communication, clarifying the crucial role of separating data exploration tools from storytelling. Kat breaks down how adopting high-contrast pivot words—like “but,” “however,” or “despite”—prevents audience disengagement—like the dreaded “death by and”. This approach achieves clear, captivating communication by definitively shifting the direction of the narrative to highlight core business challenges and solutions.

Whether you are curious about how to weave the ABT framework into your everyday work, how avoiding “chart vomit” can actually strengthen your message, or want to learn why dashboards should never be confused with data stories, this episode is packed with valuable insights for data practitioners.

In this episode of the Agile Data Podcast, host Shane Gibson sits down with Scott Herman, a community builder who successfully launched and grew the Data Mesh Learning community.

In this episode, the conversation explores the core patterns and strategies for building and sustaining modern tech communities. Scott explains how community success relies on driving active engagement rather than chasing vanity metrics, distinguishing between passive observers and true contributors. He emphasizes the importance of reducing friction for participation, offering focused niche content, and staying adaptable rather than strictly sticking to rigid, upfront marketing plans.

The discussion also dives deep into “community ops” and operational execution, detailing how to manage varying member fluency through automated onboarding and dedicated spaces for beginner questions. Scott breaks down his “ask, not offer” approach to member recruitment and outlines why a viable community team requires at least two full-time roles—one focused on inviting and enabling members, and another on content flow and friction reduction—to avoid overloading a single individual. Additionally, they examine how communities can survive founder transitions by deliberately cultivating and anointing new champions.

Whether you are curious about community acquisition funnels, designing an optimal two-person community team, managing member onboarding across fluency levels, or strategies to ensure long-term community survival beyond a single founder, this episode is packed with valuable insights for data professionals and community leaders.
