Description

Cloudy with a Chance of Insights is a practitioner‑led podcast for architects, engineers, and security professionals working with the Microsoft Cloud. In each episode, we take a grounded, experience‑led look at Azure, M365, Copilot, Security, and AI, focusing less on release notes and more on what actually changes in real environments. We discuss what breaks, what gets harder, what’s worth paying attention to, and what can usually wait. Expect opinionated conversation, technical context, and the occasional bit of healthy scepticism rather than marketing hype or surface‑level news summaries.
