In this re-released episode of Cut the $hIT, we’re bringing back one of our most insightful conversations: a deep dive into the world of network architecture with Stephen Ziehr.


Stephen, Plow’s Senior Network Engineer, has nearly 25 years in IT and over a decade of hands-on network engineering experience. From building out infrastructure in his high school days to tackling large-scale network challenges for enterprise clients, Stephen’s been in the trenches, and he’s got the stories to prove it.


They talk about the evolution of network monitoring and management, how to design for resilience at scale, and why understanding networking is critical to seeing the bigger picture in tech. Stephen’s sharp thinking, candid insights, and no-BS perspective make this episode a must-listen for anyone who works in or around IT infrastructure.
