April 13, 2022 84: The Lost Episode (84): When It Fails
We have found the hidden episode! The guys got thinking after 84 was unable to be recorded: what happens when we do our demos, our systems, and our reports completely fail on us? What is our methodology when something happens, and how do we deal with it at a company, or even when presenting?
This goes through dealing with gateways, reports, demos, or anything we deal with business and technology in the Power BI Space?

March 31, 2022 96: Diving Into The Trend in Analytical Data Modeling for Power BI
We have an amazing article that the guys dived into by Iteration Insights (Thanks to Steve Richardson) - article here: https://iterationinsights.com/article/the-trend-in-analytical-data-modeling/
The gap between data modeling for IT and for the business is shrinking. Not only that, but the barrier to entry, and flexibility to architect data models is becoming more and more commonplace. What does that mean for BI Pro's, and how does this relate to the same trend in Power BI?

March 24, 2022 94: People, Process, & Technology - Integrating A Complete Power BI Solution
It doesn't matter if you have the best design skillset in the world, or if you can develop DAX Measures people couldn't even dream about. It doesn't matter if you have incredible vision and understand people's pain points in 2 minutes. What does matter is if you can manage and successfully roll out all 3.
In the BI space, the ability to deliver high quality content, that users can understand, and getting consumers to be comfortable in the product is what matters.
This was one of our more fun ones, we hope you enjoy!

One Power BI, two different worlds?
You love Power BI, but you may have a vastly different viewpoint and experience in the platform depending where you work. Are you FTE (Full-Time Employee) or IC (Independent Consultant)? The guys wanted to know just how different and distinct the experience brings to a Power BI Pro, and what skillsets are developed in each.

About Explicit Measures Podcast

From the publisher's feed

Hosted by Mike Carlo, and Tommy Puglia, the Explicit Measures Podcast is a Power BI focused show that is like being around a Power BI Pro’s Water Cooler. With so many available resources in the community that focuses on the “how” in Power BI (how to do Drill Through, how to use DAX, etc.,), the Explicit Measures Podcast is all around the WHY. Why use a particular feature, does it make sense for my users?
