The Intrazone is a show about the Microsoft 365 intelligent intranet, taking you into the building blocks of your Microsoft 365 intranet.

The Intrazone by Microsoft 365

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.

Farewell (for now)

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.

SharePoint roadmap pitstop March 2025

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!
