It all just hit the fan in AutomationTown. Jake McCringleberry got something into the water supply and, well, it’s a zombie episode. We’ve got zombies. But we’ve also got integrations! What do you do when that app you have just...doesn’t integrate? Workarounds, back doors, hacks. This week we’re hacking your integrations, on this, the season finale of AutomationTown.

Well it’s happening again. What’s Jake McCringleberry up to now with this water pipeline that connects the two towns? This feels an awful lot like a build-up to a dramatic season finale.
Also..
Data processing! What do you do when you gotta crunch some numbers, or take data that’s in one format, and convert it to a different format? Let's automate that, on this week’s episode of AutomationTown.

This week, who’s the man behind the madness, Jake McCringleberry? There’s two sides to every coin, and Chad & Jake will meet for the first time. And we’re talking WEBHOOKS! The swiss army knife of integrations - how to get your head around webhooks to bridge the apps you use that won’t integrate, and start thinking like a developer by building your automations in a more modular way.

Okay okay okay hear me out: printing automation. No come back, it’ll be good, I swear.
Instead of covering something people want to talk about, Chad & Jason cover printers, and how to build them into your cloud Zapier or Make workflows. Why is that a thing that exists? Why is it a tool you should still have in your toolbelt? Why are you 5 sentences deep into a podcast episode description?
The boys also meet Buzz McTompkins, the head of 104.3 TheBuzz, Stuart from Radio Shack calls in with another embarrassing question and we automate a preschool.

Contracts, documents, invoices. We all find ourselves generating documents more than we’d like, but what’s Google’s approach to doing this in an automated way? We’re taking a look at google templates, what they can do, how to use them, and whether office 365 users should give a hoot, all on this week’s AutomationTown.
Oh, and we go live with episode 2 of our call-in radio show, AutomationShow.

Imagine this...you're at your job and it's time to do that one thing you absolutely despise. So you start working on it and immediately start wishing the computer would do it for you.
Like, "Why do I have to do this?"
There's got to be a better way.
No more click this, click that, over and over again. Somehow, it's just done for you.
That's what this podcast is trying to do.
Give you a seat at the table as we discuss ways to automate and eliminate the things we want to forget about at work.
If you make it to the end of the trailer, let us know what you think on Twitter (@AutomationTown).
We know 4 minutes is a lot, so thank you.
