We're taking a break from our regularly scheduled IT programming to have podcast favorite, Dr. Gail Zasowski, professor of astronomy at the University of Utah. We talk about water on Mars and why it's a big deal. We also dive deep into the theory that the earth is flat. We talk about those conspiracy theories and why they're dumb.

Today we have Dan Anderson, CEO of Mark V Security. We talk about Elon's submarine, how Dan got involved in security, and what a cybersecurity cooperative is. And of course we do a few IT horror stories and a fun little lightning round. To learn more about Dan's company, visit markvsecurity.com

In one of our best episodes yet, we dive into Windows 10 migration with Insider Rex McMillan. We give the scoop on everything you need to know about Windows 10 migration. We talk about Windows as a service, what Rex is hearing about Windows 10 in the industry, how Rex became an insider, the biggest mistake you can make with Windows 10, and the most important piece of advice for Windows 10 in the enterprise. We also talked about what Rex is most excited about when it comes to Windows 10.

In this episode, we interview Kevin J Smith about his new book, The IT Imperative. We talk about his Interchange experience, the transformation of IT, the rise of the IT department, the unification of IT, and IT challenges.

Happy 50th episode! On this episode, we do a lightning round, play a cybersecurity trivia question game, and answer a few listener questions. Thanks to our wonderful fans for a great first 50 episodes.

To be completely honest with you, this episode is a bit of a hot mess. We are joined by former podcast guest host, Cache Walker. We talk about the hierarchy of agriculture, Cache's Teen Choice Award nomination, go through a quick lightning round, and discuss the Great Peercat Migration of 2018. We discuss the invention of the future and Ivanti's recent Gartner Peer Insights Award. We talk about what this award means and why it's a big deal.

We talk to Jason, Desktop Administrator and Ivanti customer. We do a quick lightning round, talk about Interchange highlights, and his biggest IT challenge he's trying to solve. We also talk about electric cars and Tesla.

We got to talk to Marcel Shaw, who specializes in working with the federal government. He talks about how to keep up with updates in technology and how to work faster with fewer people. He also speaks about automation in the unified IT approach, IT silos and the challenges they bring, and the need for instant gratification in the new workforce. He also compares the differences between IT in government vs other businesses.

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Interchange Live programming for a special tech debate. Steve and McKay debate when kids should get smart phones, when kids should get social media, fake news, and all about Tesla's financial situation.

We had the opportunity to get deep in the trenches with Ivanti Director of IT, Adam Jones. We have a great conversation with Adam about how his team saved millions of dollars by shifting their focus to the asset. We discuss what it's like working in IT for an IT software company, how user expectations are changing, and how IT teams can unknowingly enable chaos. Plus, Adam has possibly the most random answers to a lightning round question in the history of the podcast.
