Before heading off to BravoCon, Dylan is back for another whackadoodle-time journey through this week's Bravo news. First up, he discusses a viral clip from Special Forces: World's Toughest Test, which makes it clear that Gia Giudice didn't fall far from the tree. Then, he locks in for an important RHOSLC recap, because we need to figure out WTF happened on the flight from hell. Are Meredith and Lisa lying about bullying Britani? Could Mary hear all the way from her seat? And most importantly, which movies did Meredith watch on the flight? Much to unpack. Later, he covers RHOP's last day in Nevis, which features another confusing crashout from one of the newbies.

One little snowfall and ICE is suddenly leaving Chicago for warmer climes. Ben riffs. Kalman Resnick explains the legal fight he's waging on behalf of Chicagoans swept off the street by ICE's masked and armed goon squad. Most notably, his case on behalf of Ruben Torres Maldonado, whose daughter is undergoing cancer treatment. And Diana Santillana Galeano, the teacher snatched from a north side daycare center. These fights are in the courts but the larger struggle is at the ballot box. Kalman is a lawyer in Chicago.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Unlocking Healthcare Data: Expert Insights from Jason Bryll of Parable AssociatesIn this episode, host Josh Elledge interviews Jason Bryll, Founder and CEO of Parable Associates, a company helping healthcare organizations harness their data for growth, efficiency, and better patient outcomes. Jason discusses how healthcare's complex data systems—spanning patients, payers, and providers—can be transformed into powerful strategic assets. The conversation explores modern data infrastructure, AI adoption, and how healthcare leaders can turn information into action.Turning Healthcare Data into a Strategic AdvantageJason explains that healthcare organizations deal with some of the most fragmented and regulated data ecosystems of any industry. With multiple payment sources, strict HIPAA compliance, and disconnected systems, many practices struggle to translate data into actionable insights. Through Parable Associates, Jason helps clients design robust, scalable data infrastructures that unify information from EHRs, practice management tools, and claims systems to create real-time visibility into operations.He highlights how modern tools like Microsoft Fabric, Databricks, and Snowflake are transforming how providers process and analyze information. By automating data pipelines, implementing AI-driven analytics, and empowering teams with dashboards, healthcare organizations can reduce claim denials, improve revenue cycles, and accelerate cash flow. Jason emphasizes that true transformation begins with data governance—ensuring clean, accessible, and secure data before layering on advanced analytics.Ultimately, Parable's approach is rooted in measurable ROI. From reducing days sales outstanding (DSO) to uncovering revenue bottlenecks, their systems deliver tangible results. Jason advises healthcare executives to start with a specific business problem—such as cash flow or patient scheduling—and build data strategies around it. “Better reporting is like giving staff a utility belt,” he says. “It equips them to solve problems faster and with more confidence.”About Jason BryllJason Bryll is the Founder and CEO of Parable Associates, where he helps large healthcare organizations transform fragmented data into operational insights. With deep experience in analytics, systems design, and healthcare finance, Jason has worked with providers nationwide to improve data quality, cash flow, and performance through tailored, scalable solutions.About Parable AssociatesParable Associates specializes in healthcare analytics and data engineering, helping medical groups, hospitals, and specialty providers build scalable data ecosystems.

He previously served as a board member for Astronomer, Transposit, and others. He was an early-stage investor at Snowflake, Sigma, Observe, Lacework, and Clumio. In Today's Discussion with Chad Peet's We Discuss: 1. You Need a CRO Pre-Product: Why does Chad believe that SaaS companies need a CRO pre-product? Should the founder not be the right person to create the sales playbook? What should the founder look for in their first CRO hire? Does any great CRO really want to go back to an early startup and do it again? 2. What Everyone Gets Wrong in Building Sales Teams: Why are most sales reps not performing? How long does it take for sales teams to ramp? How does this change with PLG and enterprise? What are the benchmarks of good vs great for average sales reps? How do founders and VCs most often hurt their sales teams and performance? 3. How to Build a Hiring Machine: What are the single biggest mistakes people make when hiring sales reps and teams? Are sales people money motivated? How to create comp plans that incentivise and align? Why does Chad believe that any sales rep that does not want to be in the office, is not putting their career and development first? Why is it harder than ever to recruit great sales leaders today? 4. Lessons from Scaling Sales at Snowflake: What are the single biggest lessons of what worked from scaling Snowflake's sales team? What did not work? What would he do differently with the team again? What did Snowflake teach Chad about success and culture and how they interplay together?

Replay of Cowboy State Politics Live.  An article in the Free Press claims that it is conservatives who are the new snowflakes and not the left.  There is a difference between capitalism and cancelling; and when you are in a position of public trust some of the rules are different.  After all, parents have a right to know who is spending 8 hours a day with their children.  That, and a bunch more.

Soham Mazumdar, CEO and Co-Founder of WisdomAI, discusses how organizations can break free from the "drowning in data but starving for insights" paradox that plagues modern enterprises. We explore his journey from Google's TeraGoogle project to co-founding and scaling Rubrik through its $5.6 billion IPO, and why he left that success to build an agentic AI approach to Business Intelligence (BI) that transforms how businesses extract value from their data investments.SHOW: 971SHOW TRANSCRIPT: The Cloudcast #963 TranscriptSHOW VIDEO: https://youtube.com/@TheCloudcastNET NEW TO CLOUD?

In this episode of Pearls On, Gloves Off, Mary O'Carroll sits down with John LaBarre, General Counsel of Harvey. From Google to Snowflake and now a leader in legal AI, John's career reflects the tech world's evolution. Together, they dig into the pivotal moment we're living through — when generative AI enters the legal profession not as a futuristic idea but as a productivity‑enhancer in real time. In this episode: Why legal is ripe for AI: He explains how the legal profession acts as a "low‑hanging fruit" for generative AI, given its massive volumes of unstructured data and repetitive tasks. Re‑learning technology: Generative AI isn't like a perfect calculator. John argues lawyers must shift from expecting "the correct answer" to co‑working with predictive tools: prompting them, reviewing them, validating them. Measuring ROI: From the in‑house perspective, it's about doing more with the same budget. John shares examples where what used to be a 30–40 hour review became a 2–3 hour job thanks to AI. Law firms, adoption & the billable hour paradox: The conversation pivots to law firms — how they adopt AI, the challenges of traditional measurement (billable hours), and why this moment might represent another nail in that coffin. What's next: They explore the next three‑to‑five‑year horizon — what would make AI truly transformative, what still needs to happen, and why "agents" handling NDAs or contract workflows aren't far off. If you're involved in legal operations, in‑house counsel, or law firm innovation, this episode offers actionable insight into how legal work is changing—and what you should be doing right now to keep up.

Dhanji R. Prasanna is the chief technology officer at Block (formerly Square), where he's managed more than 4,000 engineers over the past two years. Under his leadership, Block has become one of the most AI-native large companies in the world. Before becoming CTO, Dhanji wrote an “AI manifesto” to CEO Jack Dorsey that sparked a company-wide transformation (and his promotion to CTO).We discuss:1. How Block's internal open-source agent, called Goose, is saving employees 8 to 10 hours weekly2. How the company measures AI productivity gains across technical and non-technical teams3. Which teams are benefiting most from AI (it's not engineering)4. The boring organizational change that boosted productivity even more than AI tools5. Why code quality has almost nothing to do with product success6. How to drive AI adoption throughout an organization (hint: leadership needs to use the tools daily)7.

UFO Undercover part two Top 5 UFO Sightings Top 5 alien abduction cases ? Hudson Valley UFO Wave Shag Harbour UFO incident Westall UFO Anchorage, Alaska Chicago O'Hare International Airport Alderney UFO Sighting The Belgian UFO Wave Cash-Landrum Incident Rendlesham Forest Incident The Phoenix Lights https://science.howstuffworks.com/space/aliens-ufos/the-10-most-legitimate-cases-of-u-f-o-sightings.htm#:~:text=Contents,quietly%20to%20be%20an%20airplane. The top five most famous alien abduction cases include the Betty and Barney Hill case (1961), the Travis Walton case (1975), the Pascagoula Abduction (1973), the Antônio Vilas Boas case (1957), and the Elizabeth Klarer case (1956). These cases are often cited for their detail, witness corroboration, or cultural impact. 1. Betty and Barney Hill (1961) This case is considered the first widely reported alien abduction in the U.S. The couple claimed they were abducted by extraterrestrials in a rural area of New Hampshire. Their story was detailed through hypnosis sessions and became the basis for the book Interrupted Journey and a television movie. 2. Travis Walton (1975) Walton, a logger, claimed he was abducted by a UFO while working with a crew in Snowflake, Arizona. His six co-workers reported seeing Walton struck by a beam from the craft and disappear. Walton was missing for five days before reappearing and recounting his story, which was later fictionalized in the film Fire in the Sky. You can watch this video to learn more about the Travis Walton case: 58s WatchMojo.com YouTube · Sep 2, 2017 3. Pascagoula Abduction (1973) Two men, Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker, reported being abducted by aliens while fishing in Pascagoula, Mississippi. They claimed they were taken aboard a UFO by three-fingered, cat-like aliens. After the incident, they were subjected to lie detector tests, which they reportedly passed. 4. Antônio Vilas Boas (1957) A Brazilian farmer, Vilas Boas, claimed he was abducted by aliens while working on his farm. He reported being taken to a spaceship, examined by the aliens, and forced into a sexual encounter with a female alien. The case is notable for the detailed and unusual nature of the encounter. 5. Elizabeth Klarer (1956) A South African woman, Elizabeth Klarer, claimed she was taken aboard a UFO by aliens from the planet Meton. She stated the aliens had an advanced civilization and were concerned about Earth's nuclear weapons. Her story includes detailed descriptions of the aliens and their technology. https://www.google.com/search?q=top+5+alien+abduction+cases&sca_esv=39b731e95fabc852&rlz=1C1CHBF_enUS779US779&ei=SVf5aNyzKa2RwbkPqITM2Ao&ved=0ahUKEwic_J-h6riQAxWtSDABHSgCE6sQ4dUDCBA&uact=5&oq=top+5+alien+abduction+cases&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiG3RvcCA1IGFsaWVuIGFiZHVjdGlvbiBjYXNlc0ivFFDjCFjBC3ABeAGQAQCYAbMBoAG1AqoBAzAuMrgBA8gBAPgBAZgCAaACCcICChAAGEcY1gQYsAOYAwCIBgGQBgiSBwExoAfWAbIHALgHAMIHAzItMcgHBw&sclient=gws-wiz-serp

Join us for a masterclass in building data-driven marketing cultures. Moe Kiss, Director of Data Science in Marketing at Canva, shares how she bridges analytics and storytelling to make data approachable across teams. She breaks down the shift from attribution to experimentation, why storytelling is a must-have skill for every data professional, and how to balance intuition with evidence. Discover how Moe's redefining the balance between technology, trust, and empathy in data leadership.Key Moments:Data as “Part of the Meal” (09:09): Using a cooking analogy, Moe describes how data should be integrated into decision-making, not as a garnish or afterthought, but as part of the meal itself. She highlights Canva's culture of balancing intuition with data, ensuring both creative instinct and analytics inform every decision.Storytelling as a Data Superpower (10:57): Moe breaks down her “insight headline” method, turning flat dashboards into stories that drive action. She argues that data storytelling isn't about aesthetics but understanding, and that trust comes from how clearly insights connect to business impact.Technical Fluency in the Age of AI (18:16): While some leaders claim programming is obsolete, Moe insists it's more important than ever. Understanding what's under the hood helps data professionals vet AI outputs, maintain data quality, and confidently guide stakeholders through rapid technological change.Buy vs. Build: The Cost–Benefit Equation (20:11): Moe breaks down how Canva evaluates when to build internal tools versus buy off-the-shelf solutions. She stresses that the best answer depends on scalability, cost, and time to market — and that implementation costs are often underestimated.AI's New Role in Marketing (24:48): Moe shares how AI is reshaping marketing teams and their relationship with data. She highlights how generative AI tools can democratize access to insights, but warns that without trusted, high-quality data foundations, AI can just as easily amplify mistakes.Key Quotes:"Data is about creativity…It's not about it being pretty, it's about being understood.” - Moe Kiss“ We are leveraging AI tools more, and so understanding what's under the hood, I would say, is more essential than ever.” - Moe Kiss“[Know] the business appetite. You need to know how to get the answer with the right level of certainty or uncertainty…at pace with the business.” - Moe KissMentionsAnalytics Power Hour PodcastWhy Are Semantic Layers Suddenly Sexy?The Agentic Semantic Layer and OSI: A New Standard for AIThoughtSpot Joins Forces with Snowflake and Industry Leaders to Spearhead Open Semantic Interchange, Ushering in a New Era of Data and AI InteroperabilityGuest Bio Moe is a Director of Data Science in Marketing at Canva.

Can you just use Claude Code or another LLM to "vibe code" your way into building an AI SOC? In this episode, Ariful Huq, Co-Founder and Head of Product at Exaforce spoke about the reality being far more complex than the hype suggests. He explains why a simple "bolt-on" approach to AI in the SOC is insufficient if you're looking for real security outcomes.We speak about foundational elements required to build a true AI SOC, starting with the data. It's "well more than just logs and event data," requiring the integration of config, code, and business context to remove guesswork and provide LLMs with the necessary information to function accurately . The discussion covers the evolution beyond traditional SIEM capabilities, the challenges of data lake architectures for real-time security processing, and the critical need for domain-specific knowledge to build effective detections, especially for SaaS platforms like GitHub that lack native threat detection .This is for SOC leaders and CISOs feeling the pressure to integrate AI. Learn what it really takes to build an AI SOC, the unspoken complexities, and how the role of the security professional is evolving towards the "full-stack security engineer".Guest Socials -⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ariful's LinkedinPodcast Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CloudSecPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security BootCamp⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you are interested in AI Cybersecurity, you can check out our sister podcast -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ AI Security Podcast⁠Questions asked:(00:00) Introduction(02:30) Who is Ariful Huq?(03:40) Can You Just Use Claude Code to Build an AI SOC?(06:50) Why a "Bolt-On" AI Approach is Tough for SOCs(08:15) The Importance of Data: Beyond Logs to Config, Code & Context(09:10) Building AI Native Capabilities for Every SOC Task (Detection, Triage, Investigation, Response)(12:40) The Impact of Cloud & SaaS Data Volume on Traditional SIEMs(14:15) Building AI Capabilities on AWS Bedrock: Best Practices & Challenges(17:20) Why SIEM Might Not Be Good Enough Anymore(19:10) The Critical Role of Diverse Data (Config, Code, Context) for AI Accuracy(22:15) Data Lake Challenges (e.g., Snowflake) for Real-Time Security Processing(26:50) Detection Coverage Blind Spots, Especially for SaaS (e.g., GitHub)(31:40) Building Trust & Transparency in AI SOCs(35:40) Rethinking the SOC Team Structure: The Rise of the Full-Stack Security Engineer(42:15) Final Questions: Running, Family, and Turkish Food

Ahead of the Bristol Healing Workshop next month taught by Annick Brofman (November 22nd & 23rd 2025) I chat with Philippe Hannetelle, long term teacher of the Body Mirror System of Healing about pushing through to new realities through the mechanism of healing. Both Philippe and I were taught chakra healing by Martin Brofman, the creator of the Body Mirror System. Philippe now teaches these workshops all over Europe. Calendar of Classes We discuss our own healing journeys, what happens in these classes and the shift in consciousness to a new reality that regularly takes place for people within the intensive weekend workshops who are learning these methods for the first time. There are still a few spaces left on the upcoming B R I S T O L course. The EarlyBird Discount ends on October 22nd 2025 - get in touch with me to reserve a space at: scarlettofthefae@gmail.com Info about the Class Annick Brofman will be visiting Bristol to teach a weekend course in the Body Mirror System of Healing November 22nd & 23rd 2025The class starts both days at 9:30 AM and ends around 8:30 PMon Saturday and around 7:30 PM on Sunday. Registration startson Saturday morning at 8:30 AM. The Body Mirror System of HealingThis system of healing developed by Martin Brofman, is asynthesis of Western psychology and Eastern philosophies basedon the chakras (energy centres found in the Hindu traditions).Because each of these chakras can be associated with certainparts of the consciousness as well as certain parts of thebody, they allow us to read the body as a map of theconsciousness within.Thus, tensions in the body are seen to reflect tensions in theconsciousness, and the chakras can be used as a vehicle tounderstand the Body Mind Interface and its implications forhealing. You will find more information onhttps://www.fondation-brofman.org/ The Class During the class, you will exchange 5 healings with otherparticipants, using various techniques you have been taught,and at the completion of the class, you will be able to:1. Understand and experience yourself as a Being of energy.2. Feel and direct energy, and see energy (auras, chakras, thoughtforms.)3. Understand the relationship between your body and yourconsciousness.4. Understand how symptoms in the body reflect tensions in theconsciousness.5. Read the body as a map of consciousness, understanding theinner causes to outer symptoms.6. Understand the chakras and their associations with specificparts of the consciousness and specific parts of the body.7. Use various tools designed for healing (White Light, colors,thought forms.)8. See the results of putting these techniques and tools to use.Early birds attending their 1st class get a £50 discount ifregistering one month before the class.The Brofman Foundation for the Advancement of Healing Visitour website at http://brofman-foundation.org Podcast intro music: Transmutate by Snowflake (c) copyright 2020 Licensed.

It was an honour to speak with Amanda about her family's experiences. We hear the extraordinary sighting of what her (non-believer) husband described as an 'elf' in and around their home in Cape Cod.Amanda shares a very moving account of a crow which appeared in the family's lives and brought solace, around a tragic event. Lastly, we hear Amanda's father's account of seeing two little beings climb into his childhood bedroom in Cape Cod.These experiences felt personal and meaningful. Such encounters compel us to question the relationship between the material realm and the Otherworlds. Huge thanks to Amanda for sharing these stories with us.

Make It Snow is Snowflake's go-to-market playbook, told by longtime CRO Chris Degnan and CMO Denise Persson. The central idea: sales and marketing must operate as “one brain in two bodies.” The takeaways are practical and candid: embed with customers sooner than feels comfortable, pick a clear foil, design programs you can rerun, centralize data so sales and marketing act from one truth, and treat culture as GTM infrastructure. If you're a founder, CRO, CMO, or operator trying to go from zero to billions without losing the plot, Make It Snow is a field manual for aligning people, narrative, and pipeline at every stage.
