Welcome to the Chaos Lever podcast! In this episode, we're sharing some of our favorite (and most cringe-worthy) disaster recovery stories as Chris and I relive our days in the IT trenches. From accidentally shutting down a whole data center with the push of a button to a missing utility server derailing an entire cloud migration, we’ve seen it all. If you’ve ever wondered how NOT to handle DR or just need a good laugh, you’re in the right place. 😅⚡
We’ll talk about lessons learned the hard way—like why servers named "util01" are always critical, why you should *actually* test your DR plans, and why a bad backup can ruin your entire week. Whether you’re an IT pro looking for a relatable rant or someone curious about the chaos behind the scenes, you’ll enjoy this wild ride through tech disasters (and recoveries). 💾🔥
Thanks for hanging out with us and listening to our stories of near-catastrophes and occasional triumphs. If there’s a topic you want us to cover—or if you just want to share your own war stories—hit us up! You made it all the way to the end, so reward yourself with a seat on the couch and a nice, quiet pilot light DR plan. You’ve earned it. 🎙️🛋️
