Episode 0x1C — The New Guy

That’s audio episode 29 out of us – and so it’s time to go gracefully into our middle age with a new guy.

We are pleased to announce that we’re adding a new regular contributor to the Podcast – Wil Knoll is a Calgary-based infosec consultant / hackerspace founder who has been a key contributor to Hacker Pyramid as well as knowing his shit when it comes to infosec. He’s also an accomplished actor and once upon a time could be mistaken for Joey from Hackers. We are thrilled to have him join the show and in this first outing, he did a wonderful job. He also suffers from impostor syndrome – so make sure you tell him how awesome he really is — @wintr on Twitter.

Normally there is an opportunity for witty goofing about here. This week, I’m taking the time to soapbox for a moment. If you’re not aware of Aaron Swartz, you should be. Unless you’re listening to this podcast by going directly to the website and downloading, it’s his spec that’s running the RSS you’re using. Also, everything else. Here’s a few links to get you thinking.

DISCLAIMER: It’s not that explicit, but you may want to use headphones if you’re at work.

ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In case it is unclear, this is the story of 5 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don’t need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok? Good.
