Kat is an Oura Ring snob, and thinks Apple Watches are "trash," while Ian is #TeamAppleWatch. We then get into voice memos and how many texts the average person we get each day (turns out Ian needs more friends)! We wrap up talking VR goggles and glasses, and how we think it may be a bridge too far, even if the Webex roadmap has a lot of cool stuff in it like holograms!

In this episode, we receive Regis Baudin, Technical Leader for the CXLabs department in Europe.

Kat is back from her wedding, and everyone is circling back with her, which begs the question: do you reply to sales reps who slide into your LinkedIn DMs? What about cold emails? Ian shares a tip to help filter out spam on LinkedIn, and maybe even make your profile more memorable. We then try to figure out how spam filters work before coming up with some solutions of our own...sorry if you are in purgatory!

Full disclosure: Ian sounds like he is underwater (but is just stuffed up). Not all heroes wear capes. We jump in by discussing how AI is changing the eComm game. Then discuss the need for making eComm in the channel more prevalent and easier, utilizing what we see in B2C. We wrap up with Kat's questionable relationship with sales (and tee up a future episode). Another (mildly) educational, but very fun episode!
