| #16 - Community, Dataverse & Work IQ Love 💜💚💙 | 11 oct. 2026 | 00:40:34 | |
Joe and Seb are back from Edinburgh, and without the pressure of being newly award-winning (huge congrats to M365 Distilled for winning here), the usual japes, shenanigans, and poorly sung Spice Girl renditions can return. This week, we recap how amazing Scottish Summit was and dive into new Power Platform announcements, including filter-based security in Dataverse, Microsoft Copilot Managed Runtime, Work IQ, and more. We also hear about some of Seb's upcoming travels, which firmly put Joe in his place in terms of distance and excitement. Find out in the new Episode of Unresolved Dependencies!

After a busy September and a devastating haircut for Seb, your award-nominated podcast is back. With all the news from recent community events, managed Apps and just in time to miss more crucial announcements by Microsoft. But we clarify the important questions - are managed apps the future? Do we final go local, or do GPT-6 and Opus 5.5 save our token bill? Does Joe lives at the airport by now? Find out in the new Episode of Unresolved Dependencies!

Guten Morgen Sonnenschein ☀️ How can a week start any better? Well, maybe with a new Episode of our favorite conference duo Joe and Sebastian. Conference season is back, with Shift+Enter, HElish Summit up next, followed by Nordic Summit! Very exciting times! Sebastian also got very excited, not only about his Air Fryer Toast but also about new Previews - HydraFusion, not an evil german organization, but an intelligent model routing. Skills for Agent Builder and new App building capabilities for Cowork and Copilot Studio (more on that next Episode) Joe, meanwhile, tries to keep up with travel plans, license enforcement, and his new secret (?) hobby: singing.

| #13 - Bye Bye Release Wave Updates 👋🏻 | 30 août 2026 | 00:36:22 | |
Microsoft’s roadmap is changing, and the predictable release waves are moving to an always-on stream of updates. Will this pace work for enterprise customers? What does the new unified roadmap mean? And why does rapidly evolving AI make long-term planning so difficult? We also unpack Microsoft’s new macro regions, Advanced Data Residency (A 🫷 D 🫸 R 🙌), and what these changes could mean for capacity, feature availability, and keeping organisational data within the right boundaries. Plus: conference season, life on the road, and Sebastian’s evolution into a fully certified German barbecue (dog)dad. Find out in the new Episode of Unresolved Dependencies!

| #11 Fancy Shirts, Schnitzel and Credits Consumption 💸 | 02 août 2026 | 00:35:25 | |
So fresh 'n so clean - right back after Seb's vacation, we dive deeper into the rabbit hole of Copilot Credits. In every and each variation, including how Copilot Cowork potentially ruins your margin when not setting up limits. Sprinkled with a little bit of GitHub Copilot licensing here, some news there, this might be our most productive episode 👀 If you ever felt the need to understand Microsoft's current approach to print money, this is for you. And of course an Ireland-shaped Schnitzel shouldn't be missed in the half-an-hour learning entertainment we have prepared for your ears!

| #10 IN or OUT? MVP Renvewals 😱 | 19 juil. 2026 | 00:38:30 | |
All new in July - Copilot Studio receives an update, a new interface, experience, and engine to build agents on the Power Platform. What are the exact differences? Will the classic interface go away? And what are our experiences? Also, July is known for many kick-offs (that's a football joke) and kick-outs (that's a lay-off joke) at Microsoft - including MVP renewals, which determine if any of us will stay in the program or not.

Right before Joe starts his summer vacation, an offline retreat in the hills of England, maybe just a runaway from his unresolved dependencies with Seb, we have a closer look at the recent announcements at Microsoft Build 2026. What was especially exciting, surprising, and what do we look forward to? And will Seb be blocked by Joe after his offline retreat and finding his inner plastic paddy?

Two weeks in a row, and Joe and Sebastian find themselves in-person once again. This time, in the very charming and beautiful Portorož 🇸🇮 and DynamicsMinds 2026. But can such an amazing conference finally be the cataylst to resolve their dependencies? This time, discussions will range from the latest AI infused Microsoft exams, through to odd quirks when using MCP and Skills with Dataverse and what the German word is for UFO (spoiler alert: don't get your hopes up) 🛸 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@unresolveddependencies Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unresolveddependencies Website: https://unresolveddependencies.buzzsprout.com/ Email us your Joe's Travel Guess: hello@unresolveddependencies.com Connect with us on LinkedIn!

Joe and Seb are back once again, sitting nice(?) and cosy(???) together at Frankfurt airport for another live episode recording. Almost certainly not because they didn't have the time earlier in the week 👀 In today's episode, we take a slightly disappointing eggy spin on Sebastian's Eats, talk about all of the upcoming excitement for DynamicsMinds 2026, tips and techniques on how to prepare a good session abstract and differences between plugins (or The Artist Formerly Known as Dataverse Skills) and plug-ins in the Power Platform 🤷♂️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@unresolveddependencies Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unresolveddependencies Website: https://unresolveddependencies.buzzsprout.com/ Email us your Joe's Travel Guess: hello@unresolveddependencies.com Connect with us on LinkedIn!

| #5 MCT, MVP, E7 and WTF?! 😳 | 10 mai 2026 | 00:37:34 | |
In the latest episode of Unresolved Dependencies, we're going clucking mad over acronyms. What is an MCT? How can you become one, and why should you? Does GPT 5.5 make Copilot better than before? What are the benefits of the new E7 license from Microsoft? And will everyone just be saying "A365" now instead of "Agent 365"? Listen in to hear our answers and thoughts on all of these topics, and to find out how well done Seb likes his steaks 🔥🥩 A very tasty edition of the podcast, we hope you agree.

In the fourth episode, Joe and Sebastian are together in-person in Hamburg, still trying to resolve their dependencies. Can Sebastian build all of his demos in time? How cheesy can a piece of Focaccia actually be? Is #MSDYN365 Project Operations still a thing? Or can you just vibe code it in a weekend?

| #2 Joe without Glasses? | 12 avr. 2026 | 00:29:43 | |
Our second episode is perhaps one of the two best episodes we have ever recorded. Some urgent questions arise: what have we thought by starting this? Is Joe Irish? Why is he trying to speak German at his next conference? And how will he look without glasses? 👀 We are also learning more about the 2026 Release Wave 1 Updates, our favorite announcements, and focusing a bit on the fastest-growing business application. Can you guess which one it could be? You want to redo the 'Pastry-Burger'?

Join us, that's Joe and Sebastian, on their new journey in the world of podcasts. In their first-ever episode, they are eager to try to explain the concept, who they are, and why you should stick with them. From Joe's regular travels to customer events, trainings, speaker engagement or the highlights of Seb's 'Schmackofatzis' or the fact that this was an April Fools everything is possible. With a good amount of humour, spiced with technical knowledge in the Microsoft and AI ecosystem, our two middle-aged white men conquer the world and may also resolve some dependencies.
