This week, I’m joined by Christian Johnson for an exciting update on his pilot’s license journey and the tech that played a pivotal role in his progress. We’ll also dive into the intriguing developments surrounding the MGM/Caesars breach and how each party handled it in their own unique way. Plus, in a nod to the original “Christian’s Corner,” we’ll have an in-depth conversation about Windows 11 and what to expect in the near future. Thanks for listening.
