  • great insights from one of the best!

    Always enjoy listening to Richard talk about the more nuanced areas of Windows in detail—the guests are always the best.

    I was a bit surprised to see him taking flack in an 8-year-old review concerning use of “corporate gal” in a sentence…iirc, that’s the “Corporate Global Address List,” not gender slang :-)

  • Focus more on broader IT and much less on MS/AI

    This podcast is great but like a lot of other adjacent podcasts there is an issue where the topics get stale. There is way too much misguided focus on AI which is honestly pretty irrelevant to a lot of real IT people, and the obsession over it distracts from more interesting things in the IT sphere. This podcast tends to be a little too redundant when it comes to some of the talking points as well. Let’s talk less about Microsoft and maybe more about Linux servers, or Apple management, or waterc... more

  • Great guests and content

    Hi — I enjoy RunAs Radio’s topics and guests, but I want to share a piece of constructive feedback: I often find the host jumps in and interrupts guests, which sometimes breaks the flow and makes it harder to hear the guest’s full answers. I’d love slightly longer uninterrupted answers and fewer sidebar comments so the guest can finish their points. Thanks for the great content otherwise!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

PostgreSQL with Elizabeth Christensen
Q: From an administrative perspective, same kind of backup strategies, incremental, what does all that look like?
PostgreSQL separates the database engine from many operational tools. Backups commonly use projects that manage its write-ahead log, while high availability is typically provided through extensions or managed services.
PostgreSQL with Elizabeth Christensen
Q: But how do you describe PostgreSQL to folks?
Christensen describes PostgreSQL as an open-source relational database with an extensible architecture, broad cloud support, and a license that lets organizations use and build on it.
Choosing Tools in M365 with Joy Apple
Q: How much are you seeing M365 Copilot play a role in coordinating between these tools?
Apple says Copilot is bringing cohesion across Microsoft 365 workloads, and recounts using it to summarize messages and tasks after vacation and to gather customer information. She adds that users may not understand Copilot's capabilities and that access depends on licensing.
Choosing Tools in M365 with Joy Apple
Q: Do you have suites of M365 tools you think work the best together or like recommended sets?
Apple says the right combination depends on the task and users. She identifies SharePoint, Teams, and OneDrive as major collaboration tools, recommends Viva Engage for internal communities, and describes Microsoft Loop as useful for sharing collaborative components.
OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications with Will Velida
Q: What's the tool that gives us visibility in this?
Velida points to OpenTelemetry integrations and App Insights for tracing models and tool calls, along with Microsoft agent control-plane capabilities that can provide visibility across enterprise agents.
