Podcast appearances and mentions of bob waltenspiel

Pull up a chair, and listen to two old friends talk about Metro Detroit.  I recently was a guest on the IT in the D podcast a bit back with Bob Waltenspiel. As always, we don't agree on everything - but we've known each other through the podcasting world for many years.  Bob, through IT in the D events, they've gotten countless people jobs; thrown a bunch of networking events, and more. He went to Wayne State in Detroit,  is often in the city and works in the city.. but lives in the suburbs.  His podcast, IT in the D, has been on the virtual air pretty much weekly for more than a decade talking local tech, local geek culture, and have fun along the way. You can find IT in the D at ITintheD.com, and wherever podcasts are found. Me and Bob are a few years apart in age, come at things from different perspectives, and saw different phases of the city and region. From days as a DJ, to dive bars, to changes we've seen over the last couple decades. Obviously, there are so many more perspectives than ours. Think of this as more of a fun trip down memory lane. Daily Detroit shares what to know and where to go in Detroit every day.

In this episode, we were joined by Tom Lawrence of Lawrence Systems and CNWR IT Consultants. He was on the show over a year ago, and his YouTube channel has just kept growing since then. In fact, it's become so successful that he's merging his business with CNWR so he can continue to focus on the YouTube channel while CNWR manage the business projects. Recently, Meta launched Threads and Tom shared his take on the various social networks and how he uses each one. Finally, Tom talked about how he uses AI like ChatGPT to help him manage his business. Bob and Randy played around with ChatGPT and Bob got it to generate this poem: In Detroit's vibrant heart, a celebration did ignite, Randy Walker's 40th birthday, shining ever so bright. Amidst the city's rhythm, where dreams intertwine, Tocororo awaited, a venue so divine. The night air was filled with excitement and cheer, As friends and loved ones gathered, drawing near. Randy, a soul adored, a beacon of light, Guiding others with kindness, a true delight. At Tocororo's threshold, the ambiance embraced, A tapestry of laughter and joy interlaced. The melodies of Motown danced through the air, Celebrating a milestone, a life lived with flair. The walls adorned with memories of days gone by, Each photograph a testament, reaching for the sky. From humble beginnings, Randy had soared, Touching countless lives with the love he poured. In the dimly lit room, candles flickered with grace, Illuminating the journey etched on his face. Friends raised their glasses, toasts filled with cheer, Honoring Randy's presence, a treasure so dear. The aroma of delectable cuisine wafted in the breeze, Tickling taste buds with flavors that pleased. From soulful barbecue to savory delights, Every bite a testament to culinary heights. The laughter echoed, resounding like a symphony, As stories of shared adventures unfolded with glee. From youthful escapades to wisdom's embrace, Randy's path had intertwined with every trace. A live band struck up a vibrant tune, Swaying bodies beneath the luminescent moon. Feet tapped to the rhythm, hearts beating in time, Celebrating Randy, a friend so sublime. As the night waned on, memories etched in hearts, Randy's spirit shone bright, never to depart. With gratitude and love, the celebration drew near, For forty years of existence, cherished and clear. And so, in Tocororo's embrace, Detroit's soul did sing, A testament to friendship and the joy it brings. Randy Walker's 40th birthday, a moment held tight, In the tapestry of time, forever alight. Randy had ChatGPT generate a biography of Bob, and this is what it came up with. It's not very accurate.

It's jam packed at the Mic9 studio!! We gathered up some of our friends from some familiar shows that can be found out on Podcast Detroit, and decided to do a two part review of Rogue One - A Star Wars Story.

In studio we have: - Bob Waltenspiel from IT in the D and Worst Meatball Sandwich Ever - Josh Schramm from Top Rope Review - Wookie Will Blattman from Top Rope Review and The Ninja Starship with Jimmy McKnight - Tabbitha Estep from Top Rope Review - Mark Pants from Drink the Press and Mustard and Onions - J and Ric from Booking Pop Culture are here too!!
