January 1, 2024: A Special CSMNU and CyBUr Guy Dualcast

As we enter 2024, I am doing a dual-cast (is that even a word) that I am putting on both the CyBUr Smart Morning News Update and CyBUr Guy Podcast feeds.  This will lay out my thoughts for both podcasts for 2024, a quick look at my "cyber" predictions for 2024, and thank everyone for listening and supporting both efforts.
