Colette got her chickens from Greenfire Farms, and her chicken coop from Carolina Coops, if anyone is wondering.

The Chris Hayes podcast Colette mentioned about unconditional cash transfers is here.

Iain M. Banks is an author of The Culture series, a set of fiction books based in a post-scarcity society

If you didn’t get the Vizzini/Inigo Montoya references, you should probably find a way to see The Princess Bride.

Colette mentioned STAMP - which is more along the lines of reliability engineering than resilience engineering, technically, but is related. You can read about how Google is using it here.

Lord, you want the history of ITIL? Okay.

**** note, none of the below sponsor us (yet), so these are pure-hearted endorsements from Clint during the episode ****

Adaptive Capacity Labs will teach your teams how to be more resilient.

Incident.io is who Clint mentioned as one of the many incident automation tools out there (Rootly and FireHydrant are a couple others).

Backstage is an open source Spotify product, and anyone who’s worked at Spotify will talk your ear off about how great it is if you let us.
