Chit Chat Across the Pond CCATP #821 — Knightwise on Creative Video Conferencing Solutions with Open Source
CCATP #821 for September 17, 2025, and I'm your host, Allison Sheridan. This week, our guest is a real throwback for the show. If you've been listening for a very long time, you may remember this guest as creating the best Honda Bob commercial of all time, where he performed it as a Klingon war commander. He's the man who coined the term for his own podcast, "Making technology work for you." He's brilliant, he's funny, he is, as my father used to say, "drilled off center". Please welcome back to the show after close to a decade-long absence, the one the only, Knightwise.
Knightwise and I have stayed in contact over the years, sending texts back and forth here and there. This week he sent me a message asking for help finding a way to force macOS into letting his client view his MacBook Air's desktop (not speaker notes) while giving a presentation. I dug around, testing some ideas, and didn't succeed in helping him, but when he figured out a solution, he suggested coming on the show to tell us about the creative solutions he comes up with for his clients.
A few links he talks about:
- BetterDisplay Pro on github.com/...
- knightwise.com/... "once in a while" writing and podcasting
- Co-owner of The Rangers at deRangers.be/...
- Look for Jo Hendriks on LinkedIn
