    • Who Owns the Fix? Local Service vs Corporate Tickets
      Jan 21 2026

      Jason and Melanie talk about the WinternetWeb name story, why names and reputations matter, and how trust is built when you cannot hide behind a brand or a ticket number. They break down real situations businesses face all the time, like a website that suddenly goes down, DNS getting changed, contact forms quietly stopping, security warnings that kill trust instantly, slow sites that make people leave, and last-minute updates for weather closures or urgent announcements.

      Then they compare two worlds: the corporate response that pushes you to “submit a ticket,” “contact your hosting provider,” or “upgrade your plan,” versus the local mindset where someone notices, takes ownership, fixes it, and checks again later.

      Miles closes with the bottom line: technology is not the hard part. Trust is.

    • The Loving and the Loathing of Automation
      Jan 7 2026

      We are back for Season 2, and we are kicking things off with a topic that hits close to home. Automation can be amazing. Mobile check deposits, quick self-checkout, ordering ahead. It saves time and keeps life moving.

      Until it doesn’t.

      In this episode, we share a real-world headache from our new role as an Amazon Hub partner, where one small scanning glitch turned into hours of dead ends, circular answers, and the classic problem of modern life: a system so automated that nobody can actually fix it when it breaks.

      We talk about where automation shines, where it falls apart, and why some moments should never be handled by a menu, a bot, or a script. Especially anything involving stress, loss, fear, or big decisions that require nuance and care.

      And we come back to the heart of what we believe, and what we build our business around at WinternetWeb: when things go sideways, people do not need a canned response. They need a real human who can say, “I can help,” and “We’ll figure it out together.”

      If this episode resonates, follow the show and leave a review. It helps more people find us, and helps keep the human part of technology alive

    • Butcher, Bytes, and the Business of Community
      Nov 17 2025

      In this episode of Wired Together, we sit down with Michael Vaughn, owner of Lakeside Butcher Shop in Bracey, VA, to talk about what small businesses bring to the table that big box stores and online giants just can’t:

      • Knowing your name and your order
      • Supporting ball teams, fire departments, and families in crisis
      • Bending over backwards to special-order what you actually need
      • Living that “choose your hard” life of 24/7 small business ownership

      We also get honest about negative reviews, algorithms that make you “pay to play,” and why relationships built on trust, not just consistency, are the backbone of a healthy community—especially heading into the holidays.

      Plus, Miles (our AI co-host) jumps in to run a round of The Slogan Game—from “Just Do It” to “The Happiest Place on Earth.”

      If you’ve ever wondered whether it really matters where you spend your dollars… this one’s for you.
