Hey, hey. It's Jack, host of the show. I am feeling good. I am feeling healthy, strong, fit. I'm in the game. And so, I'm coming at you with a second episode this month. Let's go! Defcon is coming up in a few weeks. I'll be there. I wouldn't miss it. You know me. And, uh, if you don't know, it's the premier hacking conference in Vegas, and I love going because every year something crazy happens. You don't always know what it'll be, but you know something is going down somewhere. Like, maybe someone will drop a zero day live on stage, which will suddenly make us all panic and call home, "Shut everything down!" (laughs) Or maybe the FBI breaks into someone's hotel room and arrests someone who they've been chasing for a decade. Or maybe someone gives a talk that makes history. I mean, Julian Assange once gave a talk at the Chaos Computer Camp in Germany to announce Wikileaks. Lots of people come to drop big ideas at hacker conferences, and if there's a talk that makes history, I wanna be there for that moment. I wanna be in the room where it happens. Anyway, I'm not planning any party or anything this year. I'll, I'll just be floating around, like, all over the place. But check my Discord or Twitter for, like, live updates on where I'll be, though. And if you see me, please say hi, because I love meeting you. (instrumental music) It's your energy that gives me the fuel to fly this thing to the moon. Oh, and if you don't know what I look like, I wear a big black hat and I cover my face entirely with a bandana. I look like a bandit. All right. I promise I'll bring you back some stories.
