S2 E12: Hacking the Charts: Jack Rhysider on the Art of Technical Storytelling & Darknet Diaries

Jack Rhysider is a veteran of the security world. He likes to explore, rather it be through street cycling, empty buildings, alleyways – or just getting outdoors. He grew up with conspiracy theories, but found himself drawn more to a truthful scandal over the former. Having watched some of the biggest events in history come and go – dot.com bubble, bitcoin boom, etc. – he felt the increasing presence of an entrepreneurial itch. In the early days, he created some blogs and websites, using some well known web tech, and cultivated a love of podcasting and storytelling. Not able to find the right podcast in the info sec arena, he decided to give it a shot on his own. Fast forward to today, his podcast – Darknet Diaries – is one of the most well known podcasts available, topping the charts with its weekly release of hacking true stories. Today’s Sponsors: SimpleTexting (https://simpletexting.com/codestory)Linkshttps://darknetdiaries.com/https://shop.darknetdiaries.com/https://www.patreon.com/darknetdiarieshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jack-rhysider-02922a167/https://www.amazon.com/Out-Wire-Storytelling-Secrets-Masters/dp/0385348436https://meetedgar.com/http://aaronmahnke.com/Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!Amazing tools we use:If you want the best publishing platform for your podcast, with amazing support & people – use Transistor.fm.Want to record your remote interviews with class?
