The Intrazone by Microsoft: Recent Episodes
Microsoft
The Intrazone, a show about the Microsoft 365 intelligent intranet. This show takes you into the building blocks of your Microsoft 365 intranet. It's about how SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams, Yammer and more fit into your everyday work life – with the goal being to share and manage content, knowledge, and applications to empower teamwork throughout your organization. Hosted by the Microsoft 365 team, along with special guests and experts from both behind the scenes and out in the field, the show covers current news in Microsoft 365, common FAQs from users and partners, highlighted apps, best practices, and upcoming events. Transcripts provided with each episode.
After over seven years and more than 220 episodes, The Intrazone is taking a pause. In this special episode, host Mark Kashman reflects on the learnings, sharing gratitude for the best community in tech, and all the wonderful, insightful conversations. With heartfelt thanks to co-host Chris McNulty and producer Lisa Gray, Mark acknowledges the impact of every listener, tweet, comment, selfie, and connection. The Intrazone archive remains available, waiting to be shared and revisited. This is not a goodbye—it’s a “See you later." And it's been great fun. Thank you.

In this episode of The Intrazone, Chris and Mark sit down with Sascha Fredrich and Markus Etzel from Bechtle to talk about their unique approach to modern collaboration. And when I say unique, I mean Microsoft Teams Rooms inside Volkswagen ID.Buzz EV vans—yes, rolling collaboration hubs (with hub caps); meetings on the move, proving that hybrid work isn’t just about where you work, but how fast you can get there ;). And don’t miss the grand finale—a special piano performance by Sascha that celebrates the power of community and connection.

There is so much to learn about Microsoft 365 Copilot, it helps to have someone translate Copilot into practical knowledge, tips, and tricks. We chat with TJ Devine, one of Microsoft's foremost experts in Copilot - to hear how it evolves AND how best to talk about it - to understand what you can do with AI in Microsoft 365. You'll hear TJ touch on key AI innovations, core integration touch points, customer journeys with Copilot adoption, some of his favorite tips when working with Copilot, and a glimpse into the future. Small note: TJ, Mark, and Chris recorded this themselves - their real voices - no AI augmentation, just pure AI education!

This episode is like a gift to your future work "comms pro" personality. All the heartache of manual copy/pasting into various internal distribution channels will fade away. And what shines through? The ability to communicate like a pro with the broadest reach and impact for your internal news and campaigns - big or small. We talk with Liz Sundet (Senior Customer Experience program manager at Microsoft), a wonderful technologist and trainer focused on getting Microsoft customers prepared to use Microsoft Viva Amplify. You'll hear insights about the tech, best practices for internal comms, and insights into how customers use Amplify to, you guessed it, amplify their internal comms, with solid reporting intact.

We hear from Stephen Rice (Principal product manager) from our OneDrive companion pod, Sync Up - and he chats/interviews your Intrazone host, Mark Kashman. It's a little bit of a M365 multi-verse as they interview each other - pod-to-pod, Intrazone-to-Sync Up.

We grabbed time with three Microsoft tech event experts: Sharon Weaver (Founder & CEO | Smarter Consulting), Sean Bugler (Principal Innovation Architect | Metropolitan Transportation Commission), and Derek Cash-Peterson (Principal Architect | Sympraxis Consulting LLC) - to get their insights about in-person events. The goal is to give you, future attendee, tips, tricks and best practices to optimize your in-person event experience. We also got a sense of what each person plans to present, and each shared a fun story from their past in-person event memory box. Lots of laughs.

Sue is an information architect, a knowledge management expert, and she doesn't shy away from the word: Portal. Sue is steeped in all sorts of governance and collaboration consultation in the grandiose enterprise content services and app: SharePoint. We grabbed time with Sue to discover how to make intranets better, how to make them work for you AND be worthy for people to go to and come back.

In this episode, we dig into two real-time, data-driven public service scenarios -- both about systems and people that support policing at-scale. You'll hear solution-oriented clips pulled from two episodes of the 'Public Sector Future' podcast, with show host Olivia Neal - Director of Public Sector Center of Expertise at Microsoft. First, Olivia speaks to Ian Bell, CEO of the UK’s Police Digital Service, to give an inside look into harnessing the power of digital, data, and technology to better protect the communities they serve. Then a conversation with Joseph Courtesis, former Inspector of the NYPD who helped rationalize millions of data points from multiple data sources to save police time, in real time.

A swell of innovation is coming, aiming to boost the creator in us all – to create faster, more intuitively, and with the help of AI – your intranet web design partner. In this episode, we talk with Adam Harmetz, Vice President of SharePoint Experiences at Microsoft.

On today's episode, we dig into a slew of announcements with Jeff Teper (President of Collaborative Apps and Platforms at Microsoft). We spoke to Jeff onsite in Vegas shortly after he and his team delivered a 90-minute whirlwind opening keynote – one that covered the value of community, tech Copilot, Teams, SharePoint - including Copilot in SharePoint, OneDrive, Lists, and goodness for IT with recent admin and security innovation. There were a ton of new announcements, plus the culmination of what Jeff coined "The wave of AI" - meaning the past few weeks have been a surge of AI news across Microsoft 365, Teams, Viva, Security, Loop – the big reveal being the notion of bringing that same AI service value into our beloved SharePoint.

We chat with Jeff Teper to dig into what he calls "Fast Friday" - his use of technology to record his thoughts about what he's up to each week - where he spends time, anecdotes on internal and external meetings, and things he's working on - big and small. Fast Fridays are about capturing thoughts, putting them together, and then getting them out there - and that it's OK to be scrappy, consistent, and engaged versus over-polished and less available. For Jeff, it's all about transparency, communication, and leadership - every week. You'll learn about his approach to leadership, why he creates and publishes his Fast Fridays, and the importance of Microsoft Teams and other tools for communications. Get ready to grab some Teper tidbits on The Intrazone.

On this episode, we hear from Gaia Carini and Katy Erlandson from the OneDrive engineering team. We dig into OneDrive to distinguish the value between the "Add to OneDrive" feature and general sync of team site document libraries - sometimes referred to as "Shared libraries". You’ll hear more about what each capability does, the path forward by design to make it easy for you, plus guidance for today and going forward. The whole of this episode spawned from a Twitter thread request, and we think you'll like this audible response.

It's OneDrive's 15th birthday, and all the presents are for you. On this episode, Ankita Kirti and Mark Kashman chat with Arwa Tyebkhan (Principal GPM | OneDrive) and Steven Bailey (CVP OneDrive and SharePoint engineering) to celebrate both OneDrive’s 15th lap around the sun AND to hear more about the new OneDrive Home experience. We first go into the way-back machine to learn about the evolution from Windows Live Mesh, Grove.exe and SharePoint Workspaces, into SkyDrive and SkyDrive Pro, and land on OneDrive as we know it today. We also discover that it’s not only OneDrive’s birthday… the team has been hard at work redesigning the OneDrive Home experience to help you easily resume your work and catch up on what you missed while you were away – everything at-a-glance and easy to prioritize where to start working.

On this episode, Chris and Mark chat with Todd Klindt (Consultant and Microsoft MVP, Sympraxis Consulting) about the early days of PowerShell, IT Pro benefits over the years, and what it all means for SharePoint, Exchange, Teams and Azure in the cloud. You’ll hear more about how and why PowerShell evolved (“Monad”) – why it's CLI & GUI - not CLI vs GUI, recent extensions for admins to automate server and service management – like the concise and aptly named SharePoint Online Management Shell, and powerful PnP PowerShell examples to learn from and use in production.

This is a retrospective perspective episode based on three recent in-person tech events: 1) The European Collaboration Summit in Düsseldorf, Germany, 2) the Microsoft 365 Collaboration Conference in Vegas, and 3) 365 EduCon event in DC (formerly SharePoint Fest). We hear from Spencer Harbar (one of the EU Collab Summit leads), and Mark shares both first- and third-person thoughts on seeing others face-to-face to share and listen. Oh, to roam the conference halls, coffee chats, solution building in the expo with partners - plus a little SWAG. Explore the tactical notion of once again meeting others, training others, and getting feedback with smiles "in person" - after 2+ years. This episode is a glimpse into recent stirrings of the best community in tech.

It’s time to turn content into knowledge with the help of AI. Chris and Mark talk with CJ Tan (principal PM manager | Microsoft) about her role on the Project Cortex team focused on Viva Topics. We dig into knowledge roles, deployment practices, common scenarios, and top of mind for 'What's next?’ We don't think that AI is the only substitute for IA (Information Architecture).

Share with confidence – both inside and outside your organization. When it comes to sharing, you must be mindful with whom you are sharing, what you are sharing, and how you are sharing it. And technology must support the balance of productive collaboration alongside policy compliance. This episode of The Intrazone brings two experts that shed light on best practices of working with people internally and externally.
