Great podcast!

Super informative and goes deep into really niche topics. If you’re a fan of darknet diaries or reply all this is a really solid option.

New twist on cyber story telling

I can’t believe the pod cast has such few reviews. This is similar to “American story tellers” but with a cyber twist. Love the podcast and hope more discover this gem. Thank you for this content!
