Thanksgiving is almost here, so the guys give thanks to you, their loyal listeners, with some more great channel content.

First up, Mike Kerr of SUSE strolls into the coffeehouse for some chatter about open source and the growing importance it plays in the channel.

Then, Rosanna Pellegrino takes some time away from her day job at Digital Defense to share the latest about her company and offer tips to both partners and customers about preparing for today's cybersecurity challenges.

Finally, Channel Partners/Channel Futures news editor James Anderson shares his story about the latest technology he's encountered -- a transcription app to help him process his interviews more quickly. Let's just say it quickly devolved into what we're calling "transcription mad libs."
