Jul 2, 2026: Sarah Richardson, Lisa Johnson , and Tamara Havenhill-Jacobs spent thirteen weeks completing an MIT AI strategy course on planes, evenings, and what Tamarah calls her "AI Sundays." What they brought back wasn't hype. It was clear. In this conversation with Sarah Richardson, recorded live from a 229 CIO Summit in Napa, the two leaders get honest about what actually changed: how one built the confidence to defend AI's role to her board through a theological lens, why "can AI fix that"

June 23, 2026: Jason Elrod , CISO at MultiCare , unpacks why traditional identity and access management doesn't map to AI agents, what happens when an employee leaves and their agents keep running with no one accountable, and why exploitability management is replacing vulnerability management as the right frame for security leadership.

June 22, 2026: Bill Russell and Drex DeFord launch into Newsday fresh off city tour dinners across Atlanta, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Rochester. The two dig into what's actually happening with AI on the ground: a smaller health system that vibe-coded a nurse scheduling app and made it work while bigger systems looked on skeptically, the build vs. buy debate coming back with new energy, and Anthropic's announcement that Claude now writes over 80% of its own production code. Plus: the ROI reck

June 18, 2026: Shiv Rao , Co-founder and CEO of Abridge , has spent eight years building the company into something most people didn't see coming. Now live in 300+ health systems, touching 250 million patients and processing over 100 million clinical conversations a year. But Shiv isn't just a technologist. He still rounds at UPMC as a practicing cardiologist, and that dual lens shapes everything about how he thinks. In this conversation with Bill Russell, Shiv reframes what Abridge actually is:

A dormant Instagram account tied to the Obama White House started posting pro-Iranian content. No hacked password. No malware. No phishing email. Just a polite conversation with Meta's AI support agent. Researchers are calling it out plainly: AI agents are built to be helpful, and that eagerness is exactly what attackers are starting to exploit. The attack surface isn't the password anymore -- it's the agent. Health systems are deploying AI right now for scheduling, intake, and benefit verificat

June 15, 2026: Bill Russell, Drex DeFord, and Sarah Richardson sit down to work through the question sitting at the top of every health system's agenda: what has AI actually done for us? Personal productivity gains are real. Meeting counts are dropping, hours are being saved, and individual leaders feel the difference. But the enterprise ROI case is proving harder to make. With Dave Lundahl's three-era framework for healthcare IT adding historical weight and the ambient listening wave cresting,

That UAC prompt -- the little shield asking you to approve a publisher -- is one of the most foundational trust signals in Windows security. Your tools rely on it. Your team relies on it. Two people figured out how to sell it. What they built, and which ransomware gangs bought access, has a direct line to at least one recent health system breach. Drex breaks it down. Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid

June 10, 2026: In healthcare where downtime means lives, identity security is no longer just about who logs in. Bill Russell sits down with Peter Barker , Chief Product Officer at Ping Identity , to unpack why the agentic AI era demands a fundamental rethinking of identity.

AWS GovCloud keys. SSH access tokens. Visible to anyone on the internet with a browser.What makes this worse: the contractor who created the repository didn't slip up accidentally. They actively disabled the default GitHub protections designed to prevent exactly this from happening. And when the rep
