Predictions for 2026: Kevin's Outlook

Join us this week as we rewind the tape on our 2025 predictions. In this episode, we revisit last year’s forecasts in cybersecurity, geopolitics, and AI, discussing which ones came true, which ones fizzled out, and which ones were a mixed bag. Additionally, we share insights from past guests, celebrate milestones, and make bold new predictions for 2026. Find out what we got right, what surprised us, and what we think is on the horizon for the coming year!
