Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Brent Bambury reflects on his more than four decades with CBC
Q: Do you have thoughts on where all of this is headed and what the future of media might look like?
Bambury identifies digital media, social media and smartphones, and AI as major disruptions. He says social media has weakened newspapers and newsrooms and made truth more contested, while AI's effects remain uncertain.
Brent Bambury reflects on his more than four decades with CBC
Q: Is one of those shows or projects nearest and dearest to your heart?
Bambury says he most valued projects that changed expectations of what public broadcasting could do. Brave New Waves had the greatest impact, though he also valued Go and Day 6.
Chris Evans of IAMT previews IBC Amsterdam
Q: Do you have thoughts on the long-term media tech outlook and any jurisdictions that are exceptions to consolidation trends?
Five-year to decade-long horizons show sustainability goals driving investments; brands building internal media supply chains are reshaping the market, with a shift toward measurable outcomes and strategic transformation.
Chris Evans of IAMT previews IBC Amsterdam
Q: Can you share thoughts on buyer budget expectations and where vendor dollars are likely to go?
Budget growth is likely tied to larger-scale, resource-unifying projects like IP-enabled workflows and distributed production, while traditional ad-spend contraction pushes vendors to demonstrate measurable value and agility.
Chris Evans of IAMT previews IBC Amsterdam
Q: What kinds of technology do you expect to dominate the conversation on the show floor this year?
Software-defined production and the Dynamic Media Facility framework will dominate, with a focus on the business case for these tools, dynamic software licensing, and the need for clear pricing models across multi-vendor ecosystems.
