Let me guess: you probably spent a good portion of Friday manually deleting a particularly problematic file. Yes, you weren't alone. Anyone else use Safe Mode? If by some miracle you were spared, consider yourself lucky. Friday was a real blast.

This week on PDQ LIVE, we're diving deep into the CrowdStrike chaos. We're discussing recovery tips, preparing plans for the next inevitable tech collapse (because let's face it, there will be one), and asking the hard questions. Are we relying on these systems too much? What should we do when they fail? Is it even possible to prepare for every tech apocalypse? Tune in to PDQ LIVE this week and join the discussion!
