From touching nonprofit stories to chilling tales of global cybercrime—and even a heartfelt tribute to rock legend Ozzy Osbourne—there’s something for everyone.

From AI-generated fake voices to government-backed hacking campaigns, you’ll never look at your inbox the same way again. But don't worry—Zach also shares simple ways to stay safe. Finally, the episode closes with Patrick's personal tribute to Ozzy Osbourne, whose recent passing left a legacy of music, mischief, and millions raised for Parkinson’s research.
