2021 is here, and not a moment too soon. To celebrate that happy occasion, we invited 22 (count ’em) of our guest hosts from 2020 back on the show for a series of group chats about top IT industry story lines from last year and predictions for next year, plus the latest can’t-miss reading recommendations from the ChannelPro Book Club. Heck, we even managed to get in a super fun round of museum picks from five former co-hosts, and a bonus pick from Matt that he’s been saving up for weeks.

With 2020 almost finally over at last, Erick and Rich share resolutions for 2021 and chew over the latest novelty Oreo flavor from the people who once brought you wasabi and hot chicken wing Oreos.

Erick and Rich take a break from their holiday preparations to discuss the year’s biggest IT story (surprise! It’s work-from-home computing) as well as the perfect solution for people who want to wear pajamas to their next Zoom call but still look professional.

Ring in the new year with our Joel Zaidspiner’s latest executive interviews, this time with Carbon Systems and Trustifi.

Erick and Rich mull over the grim implications of the SolarWinds Orion hack, discuss a specific technique for taking word of mouth marketing to the next level, and gaze in delighted wonder as 32 illuminated portable toilets sing Christmas carols.

Erick and Rich discuss the latest news from Datto on its post-IPO plans, urge you to do performance reviews with your employees at least quarterly, and ponder why anyone would want to take up the world’s strangest martial art.

Some things can only be accomplished by “boots on the ground,” as the saying goes. And if you’re Barbara Paluszkiewicz, CEO of CDN Technologies, host of the KnowTechTalk podcast, and guest host of this week’s episode, those boots will probably have very pointy heels.
