  • Great Listen

    I am just getting started on my cloud career and was recommended this podcast. It hasn’t been a disappointment in any ways. The information is relevant and presented in a way that the hosts clearly demonstrate the experience and acumen. I just finished the end of year wrap up and I was surprised that the hosts were thinking people would have not be tuned into the end of the show. I listened to the whole thing and was surprised when the show was concluding. I look forward to their shows for 2023
