Worth listening to just for the ads! Keep them coming
I listen to cybersecurity focused podcasts early in the morning. Decided to give this one a try today. I wish the episode descriptions were in each title but that’s a minor gripe. Then I hit play and was assaulted with their music choice. I listened for about 20 seconds (during which I lowered the volume a lot a lot) and decided to try another episode in the hopes that was a fluke. Nope. Sorry, can’t speak to content. The angry yelling loud music is too much to take.
In cybersecurity there are plenty of talkers compared to the very few walkers. These guys have walked the walk. Very knowledgeable with plenty of good discussion on being pragmatic when addressing threats.
Also, just enough snark to keep it fun. Glad you guys are back, as nothing else compared!
Seems like cover for deploying/patching gspps
