Chris and David talk... finally!
<p>Welcome everyone to the first Z DevOps Talks episode of 2026! As fate would have it, both Chris and David happened to be in the same place at the same time for once, and it happened to be in Orlando at the SHARE Conference. Plot twist: Chris was actually attending SHARE, David was just hanging out. What are the odds??? </p><p><br></p><p>As promised in the episode, we are hopeful to be able to interact with our listeners more this year! We're still working out the details on a few things, but until then, we suggest joining the System Z Enthusiasts Discord server at https://discord.gg/sze where we're going to post updates. Thanks for listening, from the bottom of our hearts. </p>
