Plaintext with Rich: Security and Tech Without the Jargon
from Plaintext with Rich · host Rich Greene
Most tech talk feels like it was written for someone else. Too many acronyms, too much fear, and not enough clarity. That changes here.This is the first episode of Plaintext with Rich, and it lays out a simple promise: short, story-driven breakdowns of cybersecurity and technology that swap jargon for language you can actually use. Each episode covers one topic in ten minutes or less, built for the 99% of people who use technology every day and want to feel confident about it, not overwhelmed. The show explains how systems actually behave, not just what the headlines scream. It unpacks why security fails less from a lack of intelligence and more from confusing systems, clashing incentives, and bad explanations. Expect practical guidance, concrete examples, and zero condescension. The goal isn't to make you a specialist. It's to make you clear enough on the basics to explain a concept to someone else, spot nonsense when you hear it, and make better decisions without panic.Whether you're a business leader, a curious learner, or someone who just wants to understand what your IT team is actually saying, this show is your starting point.Is there a topic/term you want me to discuss next?
