Failover Weekly: The Cloudcast Is Dead, Long Live Reasoning
This week was a big one for us - The Cloudcast officially became The Reasoning Show. Same hosts, same vibe, but leaning harder into AI alongside cloud. After 15 years and over a thousand episodes, it felt like the right time. Meanwhile, IBM's stock took a 13% hit over fears that AI coding tools might eat into their consulting business, and Anthropic closed another massive round. The theme lately seems to be that AI isn't disrupting some distant future anymore - it's disrupting Q1 earnings calls right now.

Software Defined Talk - Two Guys and Their Tokens AI-assisted COBOL migrations, the OpenClaw Foundation, and whether AI is finally killing Office. Plus, is TSA PreCheck Touchless the peak of human achievement?
The Cloud Pod - AWS CloudWatch Finally Hits Snooze Justin, Ryan, and Matt break down Google's Gemini DeepThink, Anthropic's big payday, Cloudflare and Crusoe Cloud updates, and Microsoft's Notepad problem.
