Handover is a beach - In The Loop Podcast Episode 12.

In this episode of In the Loop, Blake and Mike break down one of the most overlooked challenges in engineering and operations: handover. What should be a seamless transition often turns into confusion, delays, and rework. Using the whiteboard, they walk through where handovers typically fail, why data gaps happen, and how teams can start closing the disconnect between engineering and operations. We also revisit a few listener questions from previous episodes—including a quick detour into the northern and southern lights— If you’ve ever dealt with incomplete data, misaligned systems, or a messy startup phase… this one will hit home.
