Show Notes
Uncle Marv returns after a whirlwind week at ASCII Edge Orlando 2025! This episode is packed with stories from six days away—his longest stretch out of town in decades—and features everything from client moves to conference networking highlights. Marv shares his experience troubleshooting camera systems under unusual circumstances and navigating cubicle chaos during a client’s office setup gone wrong.
Listeners will enjoy hearing about the unique atmosphere at ASCII Edge events, where intimate networking opportunities take center stage compared to larger conferences like IT Nation or Pax8 Live. Marv also recaps standout sessions, including Jesse Tuttle’s keynote on hacking mindsets and Diana Giles’ talk on stress management for IT professionals.
And don’t miss Marv’s hilarious take on swag—from SonicWall hats to a balloon that looked suspiciously like a condom! Plus, hear about partner dinners that mixed bourbon drinks with unforgettable stories from industry leaders like Steve Copeland of Rhythms.
