Description

This week the AV Life crew welcomes guest Kevin Kwasneski from 22 Miles, and the team share their biggest AV war stories: stressful installs, communication breakdowns, project management lessons, and the moments that made them better pros. From oranges that looked ripe (Murphy’s PM Minute metaphor) to 2 a.m. installs, broken firewalls, and full-building refreshes before Labor Day, each story highlights the chaos, teamwork, and learning that come from AV project challenges.

🎧 Topics Discussed:

• Project readiness and “ripening” (Murphy Daley’s PM Minute)
• The Biamp–ClearOne acquisition and industry shake-ups
• Unexpected project crises and fast-tracked installs
• Managing clients, expectations, and communication gaps
• The role of teamwork and vendor collaboration under pressure
• Lessons learned and post-project reflection
• “Always be learning” mindset in AV work
• Partnership and collaboration in digital signage (22 Miles)
• Veterans Day appreciation and gratitude theme
• Humor and resilience in AV project management
