Crowbar Kernel Panic

Crowbar Kernel Panic is where DevOps meets real talk. Hosted by two working engineers, we break down the tools, stories, and career moves that make tech exciting — and sometimes frustrating. From homelab builds to coding tips to surviving corporate IT, we mix practical advice with personality and zero corporate fluff. Whether you’re breaking into the industry or leveling up your skills, you’ll get honest insight, a few laughs, and something useful in every episode.

posted a new episode this morning. It was recorded last week but due to being sick it was posted late. Next week we'll be back to our normal content. Also, working on the second homelab build vlog and will have posted soon.

New CKP episode is up!
Josh and I got into homelab projects that actually make you better at IT/DevOps — not just random tinkering.

We talked about breaking our networks with Pi-hole 😅, messing with VMs and containers, even running Kubernetes at home (probably too much YAML). And of course, backups… because losing data sucks.
