Thanksgiving Special - AV Side Dishes
Recorded October 30, 2024
(I’m still letting AI write this, but I have to edit it more and more recently - cjd)
It's time for a Thanksgiving special with the AV SuperFriends! We’re discussing our favorite AV "side dishes"—those unsung heroes in AV systems that make everything work smoothly.
As they gather for a virtual Thanksgiving dinner, the AV SuperFriends explore the role of HDMI extenders, button panels with built-in processors, and ever-useful IP-controlled power distribution. They also dive into the intricacies of network video decoders and the importance of networking with other institutions to share knowledge and ideas. Plus, they tackle the age-old debate of stuffing versus dressing and the best way to enjoy a Frosty with fries.
But it wouldn't be an AV SuperFriends episode without a bit of mayhem. With overproof rum, cigars, and a homemade crème brûlée flambe on the menu, things get a little heated—literally. Will Lisle's kitchen survive the festivities? Tune in to find out!

On Topic Episode 49: Unique Boutique
Recorded (and streamed live) on July 26, 2024
No topic provided again this month, so we decided to look at the numbers for display technologies. Where does it make sense to consider LCDs vs. projectors vs. LEDs? Chris even built a spreadsheet of rough numbers because he’s a nerd that way. Are LEDs becoming cheap enough to replace projectors? Is anyone building LCD videowalls these days? What are you installing on your campus?

Episode 48
Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice
Recorded June 26, 2024
No topic was provided this month, so instead we’re going to make this our summer Fourth of July special. So, get out your flags, wake up the kids for the renewal of their annual loyalty oath, fire up the grills, smoker, or barbecue, light off the sparklers and firecrackers, and let’s celebrate America by blowing up a small part of it.
We’ve each collected our favorite AV products, solutions, services, or approaches that we’d like to blow up. Larry doesn’t like formal instructor stations in conference rooms, Marc hates giant card frames, Chris despises giant amplifiers powering only a few loudspeakers, Justin is not a fan of professional PTZ cameras with only USB output, and Jamie detests displays with onboard operating systems.
Happy Fourth of July everyone!

1 ABR. 2024 · Recorded March 15, 2024
It’s time to get out the mops and brooms, clear out those storage closets, gather up all your old Class A amplifiers, analog cameras, and CRT monitors and throw them in the nearest waterway. If anyone asks, you have a permit and you’re just returning those parts to nature. Besides, it’s all biodegradable if you wait long enough…
Marc is getting rid of wires, Larry is removing tiny displays from big rooms, Jamie is throwing away older monitors with weird resolutions, Chris is deleting transport controls, and Justin hates all the remotes with the buttons cut off.
Let’s get cleaning!

1 MAR. 2024 · On Topic Episode 44: The plan was flawless
Recorded (and streamed live) on February 16, 2016
This month’s topic is “rethinking spaces” so we decided to discuss projects that we’ve completed recently that we wish we’d approached differently. Marc hates microphones, Chris hates complexity, Justin hates how the AV services are marketed on campus, Jamie hates treating rooms as clones of one another, and Larry hates blanket approaches (and single monitors on lecterns).
We stream live on the 3rd Friday every month and you can listen to everything we record over at AVSuperFriends.com
Alternate show titles:
- Ninja stars
- If you’re not going to do it right, don’t do it at all

- That’s not what I mean by kit
- We’ve stopped giving everybody everything
- They didn’t need that thing to begin with

Episode 43: BYOD is an AV Rodent
Recorded January 19, 2024
Our topic for February is “things just won’t go away” or “things that keep coming back year after year” like Groundhog Day. We’ve each selected items that we all hope might see their shadow and disappear for a while. BYOD, VR, terrible marketing, wireless sharing, and more. We’re also testing some format changes to On Topic to keep the show shorter and LIVE on various platforms, so look for those unannounced live streams on the socials.
Alternate titles:
I was thinking about this hard
I still can’t stop
Bad marketing
This is why people strap goggles to their head to visit the zoo
It kinda fluctuates in and out
This is why people think holograms exist
Bring Your Own Goggles
