Episode C -- Brain Dump Semi-slow news week this week so we used the bulk of our time to talk about a topic most of us struggle with (even some of us on the show) productivity! A few stories and our opinions as usual and also a letter from a listener regarding our own Dave running for the ISC2 board. Again, if you have anything comments, questions, suggestions, hatred, bickering, cyberdouchery, please sent it to [email protected] for us to check out. DISCLAIMER: It's not that explicit, but you may want to use headphones if you're at work. ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER: In case it is unclear, this is the story of 4 opinionated infosec pros who have sufficient opinions of their own they don't need to speak for anyone except themselves. Ok?

              + “volunteering” work
              + family / friends
