Episode Synopsis

 
Guests - Chris Hoar, Dave Smith, Mark Burrell, Joel Strabala
On the Friday before Thanksgiving, Kathleen Winn opened her Winn Tucson show with a stark warning: a major Cloudflare outage earlier that week knocked out roughly 20% of the world's websites, including many of the large language models millions now rely on daily. Winn brought back Chris Hoar, disaster response and telecom national security spokesperson for SAT123, to explain why these recurring incidents are more than inconveniences — they are flashing red warnings about single points of failure in America's critical infrastructure.
Winn shifted to local election integrity with guests Dave Smith and later Joel Strabala, both furious about Pima County Recorder Gabriela Cáceres-Kelly's handling of the November city election.
Winn welcomed Mark Burrell, freshly elected to the Mason, Ohio city council after a 41-year career at Procter & Gamble. An engineer by training and author of two books on America's founding, Burrell squeaked into fourth place in a non-partisan race for four seats.
