Episode 174: Falling Down Beer Company, Operation Kid Equip, Daily Detroit Dec 06, 2016

Show notes

Last night was certainly an interesting one. Episode 174 of the IT in the D podcast from our Podcast Detroit studios featured Falling Down Beer Company talking about their impending expansion in Oxford, Operation Kid Equip discussing not just their charity that we're working with at Thursday night's event but also some incredibly woefully undertold stories of need right here in the area that definitely need to be heard, and then we wrapped up the night with Daily Detroit talking the evolution of media and some of those same stories paralleled throughout the area. Quick reminder, you can donate in advance at http://ubmwarren.org/peacehouse...

Episode 174: The Charity Segment Dec 06, 2016

Show notes

We don't often break out our episodes into individual segments...in fact, we haven't done that in almost two years now. However, the stories and messages that came through during our conversation with Michael last night about the charity that we're working with for Thursday night's events are extremely powerful, woefully undiscussed, and need to be brought to light. Please donate in advance at http://ubmwarren.org/peacehouse The really big push for the charity this year is running a house that provides a temporary home for women and children in dire situations - victims of domestic abuse that are kicked out of their homes, or escape from the situation, and need someplace to go. Cash donations are going to be especially appreciated and put to good use by the group, though of course they're still doing the toy drive as well - they're just looking to do more for those in need, and we definitely want to support them. If you want to make a cash donation in advance, you can do so at http://ubmwarren.org/peacehouse Here's the kicker to make it more "real" for you - their average operational budget is $33 per day. You can sponsor a day at this home for people in dire situations...for $33. You can even pick a date, and do it in memory of someone, or for a particular reason, and have that noted as well. $33, folks. That's all it takes to keep people off the streets for one night. Do it.

Episode 167 – Live from the NA Cyber Summit, Lenovo and More Oct 19, 2016

Show notes

For episode 167, we took advantage of all of the live recording that we did during the day at the North American Cyber Summit - https://events.esd.org/CyberSummit.aspx - as well as our chats with Lenovo, and after our usual opening segment, went to those for the balance of the show. But even if you listened live, there are some things in here you didn't get to hear, as we couldn't get some of the material prepped in time for broadcast, so check it out as we chat with the CIO and CTO of the state of Michigan, a well seasoned cyber security professional, and a whole bunch more... The info on the cyber summit can be found at https://events.esd.org/CyberSummit.aspx The State of Michigan has a ton of information published out at http://www.michigan.gov/cybersecurity Lenovo's projects can be found at www.lenovo.com/datacenter [soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/tracks/289018066" params="color=ff5500&auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false" width="100%" height="166" iframe="true" /] IT in the D On the web: http://www.ITinTheD.com On Meetup: http://www.meetup.com/ITintheD/ On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/IT-in-D-91763 On Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/ITintheD On Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/ITintheD Podcast Detroit is at: On the web: http://www.podcastdetroit.com/ On Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PodcastDetroit On Twitter: https://twitter.com/PodcastDetroit On Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/podcastdetroit
