  • EPISODE 11 - SHARIF RAZZAQUE
    Mar 28 2026

    In this episode, Sharif Razzaque traces the full arc of XR—from early research at UNC to real-world medical systems that are now used on patients every day. This is not theory. It’s the transition from lab innovation to life-changing outcomes.


    What starts with redirected walking and shared research labs evolves into something much harder: building systems that actually work in hospitals, scale across users, and justify their existence through measurable impact.


    This conversation goes deep into what it takes to move from “interesting tech” to real-world value.


    Sharif breaks down:



    – Why most XR ideas fail—and how to identify the ones that actually matter

    – The 10-year path from research prototype to commercial medical product

    – How XR can reduce complex procedures from hours to minutes

    – Why the biggest opportunity is not experts—but scaling expertise to everyone else

    – The real reason some life-saving treatments remain underused

    – How to think about ROI when the baseline is “impossible before”

    – Why users should never care whether something is XR or not


    At its core, this episode is about precision: understanding the exact problem, the exact user, and the exact impact—and building only what serves that.


    For builders, operators, and decision-makers, this is a blueprint for turning immersive technology into something that actually matters.

  • EPISODE 10 - JEREMY KENISKY
    Mar 28 2026

    In this episode, Jeremy Kenisky shares a grounded, operator-level view of XR—far beyond demos and hype. From shipping millions of AR devices to building VR training systems for oil & gas, defense, and education, this conversation traces what actually works when immersive tech meets real-world constraints.


    This is not a surface-level discussion. It’s a breakdown of how XR moves from novelty to infrastructure—where mistakes cost millions, and training can directly impact safety, performance, and workforce readiness.


    Jeremy unpacks:


    – Why experiential learning consistently outperforms traditional training—and where it actually matters

    – The shift from consumer AR/VR to enterprise-scale workforce systems

    – How XR is solving critical labor shortages in high-stakes industries like energy

    – The hidden bottlenecks in building training systems (SMEs, standardization, scalability)

    – Why “sandbox” environments sometimes outperform rigid step-by-step simulations

    – The real role AI will play in training—from assistants to autonomous instructors

    – What most XR builders still misunderstand about value creation


    The conversation also explores a deeper layer: the growing workforce crisis in essential industries—and why immersive training may be one of the few scalable solutions.


    This episode is for builders, operators, and decision-makers who care about outcomes—not prototypes.

  • SPECIAL EPISODE - 9 - I/ITSEC 2025
    Jan 16 2026

    Step onto the floor of the world’s largest simulation and training conference — I/ITSEC 2025 — through the eyes of Dr. Jason Jerald, a pioneer in virtual and mixed reality.


    In this exclusive on-the-ground walkthrough, Jason guides us through cutting-edge defense and public safety simulations, immersive training platforms, and mixed-reality breakthroughs that redefine how humans learn, respond, and operate under pressure.


    From multi-million dollar dome-based flight simulators to medical trauma environments inside virtual ambulances, this episode goes beyond the hype of headsets — showing real-world applications of XR that save lives, sharpen reflexes, and revolutionize training across defense, aerospace, healthcare, and law enforcement.


    You’ll see:

    •🔍 Dome & cave simulators with pixel-perfect fidelity

    •🧠 Full-body law enforcement training with AI interactions

    •🛫 Aircraft carrier catapult launch simulations

    •💣 Realistic VR for explosive ordnance & nuclear material training

    •👮 De-escalation and behavioral awareness systems with real-time feedback


    Most of all, you’ll see how immersive technology creates impact — not just innovation for its own sake, but transformation where it matters most.
