In this week's podcast we're chatting with Jonathan Cran of Pwnie Express.

In this week's sponsor interview we chat with HackLabs' penetration tester Jody Melbourne to ask if there's a future for hacktivists after SQLi bugs are a thing of the past.
In this week's news segment with Adam Boileau we discuss the following items:
