In this episode, Nick tells you everything you need to know about the three big announcements for Power Pages over the past two weeks. Ulrikke makes a mess of iterative empiricism; the topic of Neil Benson's latest episode on the Amazing Applications podcast. Also, no podcast episode without rants 🤪  and going down rabbit holes. Enjoy!

Allow us to introduce the Power Platform BOOST podcast. Nick explains what we are all about and why we decided to create yet another podcast about the Power Platform. We introduce ourselves and talk about how we got here. 

This is the pre-first episode of our podcast which is all about Power Platform news - and yet, in this episode, there are no news or technical briefs of any kind. Ironic? Maybe a bit. If you are looking for the BOOST of news please move on to the first episode of the Power Platform BOOST podcast.
