EP 180: Of Mice and Men
Jan 2600:57:49Tap to summarizeIn this episode of Microsoft 365 Distilled, the boys celebrate Burns Night in true Scottish fashion: with tartan‑level enthusiasm and a whisky that would make even the Bard raise an approving eyebrow.They go hunting for insights in places no one has ever thought to look.The mission?To see whether the timeless wisdom of Burns, actual old-school poetry can shed new light on the ever evolving universe of Microsoft 365. And to everyone’s surprise (including their own), it absolutely does.Expect hilarious interpretations, dramatic readings, suspicious Scottish accents, and philosophical detours that somehow make perfect sense. Along the way, they uncover governance lessons hiding between the verses, collaboration metaphors tucked into the stanzas, and even a few productivity tips disguised as 18th-century poetic flair.It’s part whisky tasting, part literary adventure, part tech nerd‑fest—and 100% Distilled chaos in the best possible way.So pour yourself a dram, warm up your best “Auld Lang Syne,” and join the boys as they celebrate tradition, toast the future, and prove once again that wisdom, like whisky, only gets better with age.

They reminisce about past events and eventually get on topic: AI doesn't care if your sites are pretty. So how much work do you need to put in to make SharePoint "pretty" for AI (AKA readable)? So what is the ratio for human eyeballs vs AI? The boys finish off with a superb Danish whisky, Skippers Glow, kindly donated by friend-of-the-podcast Kasper Larsen.It all started with this post from Daniel Anderson:https://www.linkedin.com/posts/danielando_sharepoint-in-2026-activity-7410921384069017600-m52B/
