We're back and start by learning that Kat's addicted to grapes, and would like this episode to be over quickly so she can get back to eating them. We then jump in by sharing our own experiences working in a hybrid environment, and all the technology Cisco provides that make it seamless. We dovetail into a bit of computer networking (teasing a future episode...) before we get to smart buildings and how incredible a smart office is (not to brag). From improving user experiences to creating a more sustainable building - the possibilities are endless, even if our dogs probably wouldn't love it. The office should be a magnet not a mandate. Now just need to solve for the traffic for Ian (and keep Kat off the roads). All in all, one of our smarter episodes!…

We're back talking tech this week, and class is in session. To start, we have a monumental moment where Kat promises she's made her final bit about Ian's age (unlikely) (1:10).
