Description

Why do smart, successful business owners keep making tech decisions that come back to bite them? Danni and Pete unpack it all — from submarines driven by PlayStation controllers to advice firms stuck with expensive systems no one uses.

In this episode:

*The surprising parallels between the OceanGate tragedy and everyday tech decisions in advice practices

*The true cost of chasing shiny tools — from wasted fees to worn-down teams

*How small missteps — like skipping due diligence or underestimating change fatigue — quietly snowball into major headaches

*And a few laughs along the way about F1 steering wheels, hot yoga, and why you might want to leave software picks to someone other than your mates.


Whether you’re knee-deep in a new platform rollout or just wondering if your tech stack could use a rethink, this one’s packed with candid stories, fresh perspectives, and tips to help you steer clear of the avoidable disasters.
