Amy Qualls@jsrailton I've followed you for ages on the Other Site, but my account is private there, so I didn't interact. I'm a technical writer in Portland, Oregon. I make math quilts. (Introduction post for me: https://mastodon.social/@amyqualls/109293624177685492.)
hayden aiken 🇺🇲@jsrailton I'm an infosec professional, I learned about you and your work from Jack Rhysider's podcast, and then I REALLY learned about you from Nicole Perlroth's book, and Cybereason's Malicious Life podcast. Political stuff aside, I enjoy the topics and stories you cover because they have huge national security impact, and I'm passionate about how that overlaps with infosec. I hope you are treated a little better here than on birdapp 🤣
@jsrailton actually the huge brain-breaking story about you for me was when Jack was interviewing a private investigator (borderline mercenary) who was telling stories about a job, Jack realized it was you that the investigator was stalking, and then he interviewed YOU about it, from your perspective, on the same episode. Jaw dropping 😁

Aphrodite (recharging)@jsrailton I restarted a “podcast” project (short form, radio style, downloadable program intended for listening on personal audio devices) I abandoned 19y ago.
The subtitle is, “A podcast from before podcasts existed,” because I started this in 2002 and the word “podcast” didn’t get coined until 2004.
