Nicholas King

Executive Producer

Nick King is a veteran Windows Server and Active Directory Administrator, full-stack developer, and founder of Columbia Cloudworks LLC. He created The CAB Call to fill a gap he kept seeing in the SRE space — technical content that treats engineers as whole people, not just ticket-closers.

Dive into a fusion of ancient wisdom and modern tech insights shaping resilience and growth.

Freemasonry & Symbolism

Ritual, symbolism, and the architecture of meaning have shaped human institutions for centuries. The CAB Call draws direct lines between ancient fraternal practice and the way modern engineering teams establish culture, ceremony, and shared values.

Engineering & IT Practices

From change advisory boards to incident post-mortems, the show covers the real operational philosophy behind how systems — and the people running them — stay resilient under pressure.

Philosophy & Life Lessons

Good engineering is a practice, not just a skill set. Episodes explore Stoicism, systems thinking, and the mindset shifts that separate senior engineers from the rest.
