Podcasts about Dave Sims

Send us Fan MailA vulnerability backlog can look like a crisis, but sometimes the real crisis is that you're staring at the wrong picture. We're joined by Dave Sims, most recently Staff VP at Elevance Health and a longtime technology leader, to talk through vulnerability risk management in plain terms and why “more findings” doesn't automatically mean “more security.” We get specific about the difference between vulnerability management and patch management, and how confusion between the two creates low-trust handoffs, endless ticket churn, and slow remediation.We also dig into the messy reality of asset inventory. CMDB data goes stale, cloud resources appear and disappear, and scanners can produce a better “what's out there” view without telling you why it matters. Dave explains how metadata tagging and business context turn raw vulnerability data into risk-based prioritization: knowing who owns a system, what it does, why the business depends on it, and which weaknesses truly expose critical services. Along the way, he shares a story of cutting through years of miscommunication with a single no-blame conversation that unlocked progress fast.If you're a CISO, security leader, architect, or practitioner trying to make VRM work at enterprise scale, this is a practical framework: outside-in black box assessment, inside-out discipline, and a people-first approach that values training, process, and continuous improvement over shiny tools. Subscribe, share this with a teammate who owns patching or VRM, and leave a review if it helps. What's the biggest thing keeping your vulnerability program from being truly risk-based?

We kick off the hour gifting Eddie a Ford Bronco for his retirement and bringing up pianist NGXB for a favorite artist montage. Next, Jerry updates us on the Knicks taking Game 2, we hear Dave Sims call the Yankees' 3-hit shutout loss to the Blue Jays, and Aaron Boone discusses Aaron Judge's struggles at the plate. Finally, we cover NASCAR driver Kyle Bush passing away at 41, before going through listeners' favorite Eddie drops to explain their origins.

Jerry updates us with some postgame sound from SGA on the Thunder's bounce back win. We heard from Josh Hart about sitting on the bench down the stretch, CJ Abrams hitting a 3-run HR as the Nationals beat the Mets, Mets pitcher Zack Thornton, who made his MLB debut and Dave Sims on the call as Cam Schlittler walked in a run.

We kick off with the Spurs/Thunder game and Dylan Harper's injury, followed by a Knicks/Cavs Game 2 preview and expectations for James Harden. Before Jerry's first update, Boomer tries to track down the name of the 1010 WINS weather guy. Jerry then delivers postgame sound from SGA on the Thunder's bounce-back, Josh Hart on getting benched late, and Harden on Cleveland's defense. Moving to baseball, we hear the sounds of CJ Abrams' 3-run homer as the Nationals beat the Mets, Zack Thornton's emotional MLB debut with his dad, and Dave Sims calling a Cam Schlittler walked-in run. Finally, we wrap up the hour with a caller asking Eddie if he has any career regrets.

We start with the Knicks' 22-point comeback win over the Cavs to take Game 1 at a Garden that felt just like Boomer remembers it as a kid. Jerry's final update brings audio of Mike Brown calling the fans "frickin' awesome," Jalen Brunson on the message to the team down 22, and Kenny Atkinson on his timeouts and keeping James Harden on Brunson. Next, the Mets lost to the Nationals as James Wood hit an inside-the-park grand slam, prompting us to listen to Tony Gwynn's 1997 inside-the-parker, before hearing Dave Sims call Ben Rice's 16th homer in a Yankees win over the Blue Jays.

Next, Jerry's update covers the Cavs eliminating the Pistons, Josh Hart on the time off between series, Dave Sims' call of Tyrone Taylor's game-tying and game-winning home runs, and Keith Hernandez saying “Chaz Jizzm.” Finally, Tom Brady walks the runway for Gucci looking like he's had a lot of work done on his face and head.

Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber open with the Yankees getting swept by the Brewers and whether there is any real reason to worry. The offense scoring just six runs in three games, and why the Yankees' record against teams over .500 may be getting overblown. The conversation also turns to Dave Sims appearing to pressure a Brewers fan into giving a foul ball to a kid, sparking a debate over ballpark etiquette. Plus, a caller claims Sixers players went out clubbing after getting blown out by the Knicks, leading to a larger discussion about Philly's lack of belief, the Knicks looking clearly superior, Juan Soto's attempt to calm Mets fans, and the early energy around the Subway Series.

C-Lo starts with the OG injury and how he is questionable for tonight. We heard Dave Sims on the call as Trent Grisham had a bases clearing double in the win over the Rangers. Jasson Dominguez made a great catch but crashed into the wall and headed to the IL. We heard the sounds of the Mets losing to the Rockies on a grand slam.

Framber Valdez hit Trevor Story and the benches cleared but no punches were thrown. The Moment of The Day: Boomer looks like Imus today.

Jerry went around the NBA playoffs last night. We heard Dave Sims on the call as Jazz homered to give the Yankees the lead in their win over the Rangers. The Rangers did not win the NHL lottery, the Maple Leafs did.

We remember the late John Sterling's iconic career and his joyful time hosting on WFAN before Boomer calls out aggressive SUV drivers in New Jersey. Jerry highlights the Knicks' 39-point blowout of the Sixers and the NBA playoffs, while Michael Kay pays tribute to Sterling during a Yankees win over the Orioles. Following calls from Dave Sims and White Sox radio plus a Carson Benge catch, a mariachi band provides the Moment of the Day before Boomer discusses the Jets tagging Breece Hall.

It's a rare Winner Wednesday with the Knicks, Yankees, and Mets all victorious. The Jets are scouting Russell Wilson as a potential backup for Geno Smith, despite Wilson looking a bit heavy at a Savannah Bananas game. Boomer takes calls and praises Mike Tirico before we hear Tirico's call of the Knicks beating the Hawks and Dave Sims voicing homers from Austin Wells and Aaron Judge. We wrap up by revisiting Digital Underground and "The Humpty Dance." Sadly, you hear none of the music. Blame the RIAA.

The Knicks take a 3-2 series lead over the Hawks as Mike Brown pushes the right buttons and shares his House Hunters obsession. It's a rare "Winner Wednesday" with Aaron Judge and Juan Soto powering Yankees and Mets victories, while the Jets scout a "heavy" Russell Wilson to back up Geno Smith. We dive into the Phillies' coaching search, the latest NHL and NBA playoff action, and Jerry's updates featuring Mike Tirico and Dave Sims. Between the highlights, the guys tackle air taxis, bike lanes, and social media pet peeves, all capped off by Boomer's Shaun Morash impression.

The Radio Voice of the New York Yankees, Dave Sims, joins Kelley Franco for a conversation that blends sharp baseball insight with his unforgettable personal stories.From what's clicking for this Yankees team to what we can expect from the starting rotation, Anthony Volpe's return, and the bottom of the lineup, Sims gives you the seasoned perspective only someone with his years in the booth can.

This is not a numbered Tablesetters episode and not our standard show format. What you're hearing here is our segment from a recent guest appearance on Refuse to Lose, the Seattle Mariners–focused podcast hosted by Brady Farkas. Brady was kind enough to allow us to share this portion of the discussion. Listeners should check out the full episode of Refuse to Lose for the complete conversation and broader Mariners coverage. The discussion begins with Félix Hernández and the Hall of Fame. Rather than focusing on traditional milestones, we talk through how Hall of Fame evaluation has shifted alongside changes in pitcher usage, workload, and league context. The focus is on peak performance, era adjustment, and overall impact, and whether the evaluation framework should continue to evolve. From there, we move to Dave Sims and his transition from Seattle to becoming the radio voice of the New York Yankees. We discuss Sims' long tenure with the Mariners, the role broadcasters play in shaping fan experience, and why this move carries significance for both fan bases without overstating it. We also examine the Yankees' offseason, why it has been comparatively quiet, and whether a move like Cody Bellinger still fits their roster construction. That leads into a broader look at how Yankees fans view the Mariners within the American League landscape, and what that perception says about competitive positioning. On the Mets side, the conversation turns to roster alignment and trade considerations, including whether the Mets and Mariners could function as logical trade partners. We also discuss Jorge Polanco's time in Seattle and how that tenure informs expectations now that he is with the Mets. We round out the segment with some lighter reflection, including favorite former Mets who spent time with the Mariners, favorite former Yankees who passed through Seattle, and how those player overlaps shape the way fans experience interleague and cross-division connections over time. This is a focused baseball discussion centered on evaluation, context, and roster timing rather than breaking news or hot takes. Thanks to Brady Farkas for having us on and for allowing us to share this segment.

Cardinals drama, fan calls, and Dave Sims vs. Suzyn over Toronto's bullpen fueled the chaos, Shaun Morash claimed a win he didn't see, and Jerry Jones “thumbed up” Cowboys fans by mistake. Rangers stumble, LeBron's “second decision” is just booze, and even WFAN's promos got a surprise new voice.

The Bronx was rocking as the Yankees roared back from 6-1 to stun the Blue Jays, with Judge's rocket off the foul pole tying it up and Toronto's blunders sealing their fate. Boomer somehow squeezed in Rangers talk after one of the great Yankee playoff nights, while Dave Sims shilled Dude Wipes on X — apparently for cleaning pens, not posteriors. Jazz Chisholm homered, yawned, and Cam Schlittler's on the hook to back up his mouth tonight. Oh, and in peak “only on our show” fashion — we closed the hour with a reliever boasting 24 siblings and a doctor who delivered twins… with two different dads!

Yankees fans were on the edge of their seats as Aaron Judge's 3-run HR and Jazz Chisholm's go-ahead homer turned a 6-1 hole into a thrilling win over the Blue Jays, who hurt themselves with two costly miscues. Cam Schlittler is on the hot seat to back up his talk, while callers pitched everything from fire alarms at the Blue Jays' hotel to NY Post headlines. Jerry delivered updates with Dave Sims on the call, including a Moment of the Day with him and Suzyn channeling Gio and his wife. Off the field, Shaun Morash claimed a win he barely saw, Jerry Jones clarified his finger/thumb mix-up, LeBron's “second decision” was just a booze ad, and Boomer insists Toronto's offense is red hot.
