IT in the D: 2017

ITintheD Ep177 - Jimmy McKnight, Ninja Starship, Power Rangers vs Star Wars

Well, our first show of the year didn't go quite as planned, but it's still the best show we've done so far this year.  We lost a guest due to unavoidable circumstances, but still had a great time sitting down with Jimmy McKnight talking about the numerous podcasts he's a part of, comic cons here and around the country, and more...

Ninja Starship can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/ninjastarpod/

Legion: The Podcast is at: https://www.facebook.com/LegionThePod/

Both shows can be found on our Podcast Detroit network.  The whole list of shows is out at http://www.podcastdetroit.com/artist/

All in all, not a bad way to kick off the year.

ITintheD Ep177 - Jimmy McKnight, Ninja Starship, Power Rangers vs Star Wars

The Detroit Lions fight song needed to be rewritten.  Someone had to do it.

Backwards Down The Field

It's auto show season here in Detroit, and so episode 178 dove in a little bit.  From a media preview event the night before our show to what's on the floor that might catch people's eyes and the latest in connected and autonomous cars, our guests from Mobile Comply and M2Techcast had plenty of information for us...

ITintheD Ep178 - Mobile Comply, M2Techcast, NAIAS, Detroit Auto Show

Episode 179 of the IT in the D podcast from our Podcast Detroit studios is in the books, and it was another great night of conversations with our guests.  From chatting about "the sharing economy" with Jonezie.com and how their website can either help you fill a temporary need or maybe even earn a little extra cash with some of those items taking up space in your house that you're not using, and then we dove in with Dan from Visit Detroit about the auto show, Winterfest, and other things going on downtown...

A good, informative night for episode 187 of the IT in the D show as we were joined by Protect Seniors Online and Comcast Xfinity.  We opened up with our usual round up of news, events, and items that caught our eyes, including why the whole #313Day thing has to just die already, what Wikileaks exposed about the CIA, our adventures at Fantasticon over the weekend, a rather odd thing about a new video game, self driving car regulations, Thursday night's Pink Slip Party event, and more...

If nothing else, this episode reinforced to us just how crazy the next month is going to be.  Penguicon, a movie premiere, several security events, live broadcasts, and more.  And then we found out all about getting insurance for security breaches, and a whole new bundle of questions opened up.  Listen in as we chat about what Burns & Wilcox can offer your company, as well as Penguicon and what else is on our upcoming schedule of events that you want to pay attention to...

It's not really like us to start off the show on a somber note, but in this case, it was unavoidable.

ITintheD Ep195 - Kelly LeBrock, Merit Network, Jimmy McKnight, Motor City Comic Con

The IT in the D Show

So what do a couple of IT guys from Detroit talk about when they go to the bar?
Welcome to the IT in the D show, brought to you by long-time Detroit IT veterans Bob Waltenspiel (The Sales Guy), and Dave Phillips (The Geek).
The duo has been putting on free networking events for the metro Detroit information technology community for over 10 years, helped more than 1,200 people find new jobs, and been featured in local and national news stories and publications for their efforts.  After taking on speaking engagements starting in 2011 that helped refine their message, in 2013 they took their ramblings to a broadcast format that has proven to be far more popular than anyone expected.
The IT in the D show is more conversational and less instructional – it is far more geared toward entertainment and local goings-on in the metro Detroit area than a deep-dive about specific technical issues.  It’s a bar chat, not technical seminar.  You’ll hear more movie quotes than MySQL queries and more Depeche Mode than development methodologies.  Not that the guys don’t roll up their sleeves and deep dive from time to time, but with guests ranging from local CIOs and CEOs to roller derby girls and pop culture icons from the 80s, don’t let the “IT” in “IT in the D” scare you.
Each weekly two-hour show typically includes current events and stories, guests ranging from local entrepreneurs to local IT rock stars to people with great local stories to tell, rants, raves and everything you’d expect from a couple of guys who have known each other and been drinking together for nearly two decades.

The show has been listened to over five million times to date and has been heard in all 50 states and 41 countries. We appreciate the time spent with us and welcome all feedback.
