About Penetration Testers

Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too.
 
Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do.
 
Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.

This episode will make you fall in love with libraries, that's a fact. Our guest is Lara, who is not your stereotypical librarian, in the sense that she doesn't spend her days telling people to 'ssshhhhh' or chasing people for fines. In this episode we discuss how libraries have changed the world, what the best excuses people have given for not returning a book, and 'that' aisle that is in every library where people get up to no good. Joe also shares his knowledge on books, which is basically The Hungry Caterpillar and a made up one from 'The Mummy'.

This is a classic episode from back when we had no listeners. Today, Joe and Tom speak to an estate agent. His name is James and his worst viewing involves someone falling into a pond. He also once found a used condom on a pensioner’s sofa, and we find out that Joe sold a house with a real well, only to buy a new house with a fake well.

Our guest this week is Gary, who used to be Citi Bank's most profitable trader in the world back in 2011. He tells Joe and Tom all about how the trading floor works, and if it is actually anything like The Wolf of Wall Street. He also explains how he used to move millions of dollars around like it was a game, the toxic masculinity he experienced and how he eventually walked away from it all due to poor mental health. His story is pretty incredible, and you can buy his book 'The Trading Game' here: https://www.waterstones.com/book/the-trading-game/gary-stevenson/9780241636602
