Michael Bower is a 30+ year broadcasting and podcast veteran who has hosted national shows on Sirius Satellite Radio, delivered daily reports as a National Correspondent for NBC News Radio, and produced more than 1,000 podcasts across genres. As a former VP of Programming for Ingstad Minnesota Radio Network, he led talent development, coached on-air hosts, and even tested early AI “on-air personalities” — discovering why authenticity always beats automation.

Today, Michael brings that experience to the stage with talks that blend broadcast discipline, podcast innovation, and humor from his years in stand-up comedy. His signature sessions — Craft Over Clout, Process Over Perfection, and The AI DJ Problem — help creators cut through the noise, build loyal audiences, and reclaim quality in an algorithm-driven era.

Michael’s approach is simple but powerful: respect your listener’s time, earn their trust, and give them something they’ll come back for.

Jim Grisanzio works at Oracle on the Java Developer Relations Team in the Java Platform Group, which is the engineering organization building Java. He hosts the Duke’s Corner Podcast, publishes the Inside Java Newsletter, produces video and photography, facilitates the Java User Group and Java Champions programs, delivers community sessions at events, and contributes to the team’s community development programs.

In recent years while in Oracle developer marketing, Jim managed the Oracle Developers YouTube channel and multiple social media platforms. He also hosted the Oracle Groundbreakers Podcast, produced videos and live streams, delivered presentations, managed events, and published the Database and Java newsletters. From 2017 to present Jim has interviewed more than 450 developers via live streams, podcasts, and videos on a variety of technologies including Java, Linux, Oracle Database, MySQL, AI, Developer Tools, Cloud, and Open Source.

Before Oracle developer marketing, Jim worked in Solaris engineering managing FOSS projects delivering into the operating system. He was also the OpenSolaris Community Manager at Sun Microsystems from the project’s inception until the acquisition by Oracle. He directed Solaris engineering projects with corporate partners, managed Linux and OpenSolaris user groups, presented at universities and conferences, briefed press and analysts, and ran developer events. Earlier at Sun, Jim managed competitive marketing campaigns for all of Sun’s Open Source and Open Standards projects. He also wrote keynote speeches and managed communications for Sun’s CMO and other senior executives.

Jim’s academic background covers science and technical writing, publications production, health care policy, and history. He’s edited software and medical newsletters; written hundreds of magazine articles and press releases; and collaborated with engineers, scientists, physicians, and veterinarians in academia and biotechnology. He’s also worked with the global news media and American government officials at local, state, and federal levels — including The White House — while running hardware, software, and biomedical publicity programs for multiple companies and universities.

Jim’s foundational experience in managing complex projects came from working in the real estate development business in New York. He sold residential homes and raw land; hired and managed construction crews; acquired the legal and financial approvals necessary for building; and worked closely with political, municipal, regulatory, and banking officials to finalize closings. He also ran his own excavating and trucking company — he purchased equipment worth hundreds of thousands of dollars; worked on hundreds of commercial and residential sites; negotiated contracts with all stakeholders; and managed operations with customers, vendors, governments, and multiple national unions.

Jim knows well what it’s like for everything to crash completely and require rebuilding from scratch. That’s why he has a varied background. He never gives up. He just keeps building.

You can find Jim via your favorite search engine or on X @jimgris. More on Jim’s background can be found on his website on WordPress.
