74: You're Not Allowed to Tell This Story

Recorded June 26, 2026
Freshly returned from the show floor at InfoComm 2026, the AV SuperFriends gather for a full-length roundtable on trade show regrets: the booths they missed, the sessions they skipped, the demos they should have recorded, and the party they may never emotionally recover from missing.
This episode wanders through the aftermath of a massive conference week, including arguments over who should really be explaining AI to the AV industry, what happens when AVIXA TV is more networked than expected, why show-floor “hidden gems” are still somehow hidden behind the wrong booth wall, and how even seasoned attendees can come home realizing they saw only a tiny slice of the show. Along the way, the crew revisits booth tour challenges, suspicious conference sandwiches, tote bag logistics, USB-C mysteries, browser-based control, over-caffeinated presentations, and the now-legendary Panasonic dinner brownies.
It’s part InfoComm recap, part confessional, and part warning label for anyone who thinks they can actually see everything at a trade show.

Alternate show titles:

It was a wet wrap
Back door Uber ride
Cold air blowing on your butt
The brownies… like popcorn!
Another Larry-free Friday
Just a conference center with a bunch of tech
That little bit of confidence was shattered
Y’all got chili dogs?
Just buy the damn meat
