In this episode Chris Risner and Thiago Almeida are joined by Bahram Banisadr, Program Manager focusing on Event Grid.  Event Grid is a new service which enables developers to build event based programming.  Events could be anything within Azure such as a blob being created in Blob Storage, a VM starting, and much more.  By subscribing to events, you're applications can be notified whenever these events occur.  You're also able to create your own custom events which can then be subscribed to.
