In this episode, Meg Ashby, a senior cloud security engineer shares how her team tackled AWS's centralized VPC interface endpoints, a design often seen as an anti-pattern. She explains how they turned this unconventional approach into a cost-efficient and scalable solution, all while maintaining granular controls and network visibility. She shares why centralized VPC endpoints are considered an AWS anti-pattern, how to implement granular IAM controls in a centralized model and the challenges of monitoring and detecting VPC endpoint traffic.

True multicloud strategy: Organizations are adopting a true multicloud strategy to leverage the unique strengths of different cloud providers and enable developers to build better applications and services. Cloud 2.0: Many organizations are calling this shift "Cloud 2.0," driven by the need for distributed data, models, and applications, especially with the rise of GenAI and AI/ML applications. Kubernetes Networking and Security Challenges: IP address exhaustion: Kubernetes is "IP hungry," leading to IP address exhaustion and challenges with overlapping IPs, especially in large deployments with thousands of VPCs. Egress security: Millions of VPCs have weak or non-existent egress security, posing a significant risk to sensitive data. Inter-cluster connectivity: Establishing high-bandwidth, secure connectivity between Kubernetes clusters across different clouds and on-premises environments is complex and challenging. Aviatrix Solutions: Controller-based, intent-based networking: Aviatrix provides a centralized multicloud controller and uses intent-based policies to dynamically segment and secure traffic across Kubernetes clusters, regardless of the underlying IP addresses. Secure egress: Aviatrix replaces traditional NAT gateways with secure Aviatrix gateways, offering embedded NAT, visibility, and granular egress security policies based on Kubernetes resources.

Maybe you've been talking yourself out of taking a creative risk for months, maybe years just like I have. A life is something we create, too. Maybe your creative risk is leaving a job with an abusive company culture, moving to a new city or removing yourself from relationships where your power is perceived as a threat to neutralize instead of divine intelligence to collaborate with. Whatever transition is tugging you toward its trail, whatever creative calling won't leave you alone, I need you to know the journey IS the return on investment.

CONTENT ISN'T KING It is often said that content is King. That isn't necessarily true. Content by itself won't gain you an audience. Content isn't King. Great content is King. Anybody can copy information. Your content needs to be infused with story and personality to really connect with listeners. To help you create more powerful interviews, grab my list of "17 of the most Powerful Podcast Interview Questions Ever". It is a free download you can get at www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/interview. BE UNIQUE It really hit me one time when I was interviewing a musician on the air. I won't mention his name, because he called me out right there in the middle of the interview. Before our conversation, I went online and read his bio. I went through the news release they sent me about the new album and the tour. Once the interview began, I felt pretty good. We were rolling along with the standard questions and he was giving the standard answers. In what city will the tour start? When does the album come out.? What can we expect when you roll through here? Then I asked him a question about a detail in his bio. I though it was something unique. But he said, "Well, I see somebody read my bio." That's when I realized I couldn't just ask typical questions and get typical answers. To create great interviews, I needed to get my guests to tell great stories. Everything I was doing to this point was simply a derivative of someone else. I was a cliché, a poor knock off. Why would anyone listen to me when they could get the same thing by listening a variety of other interviews with the same guest? From there, I took my original content and made it great. CONTENT WITH STORIES Later in my career I was interviewing Preston Brust of the country band LOCASH. He and Chris Lucas had been working hard for years writing songs for themselves and others while also recording and touring. LOCASH had a few different record deals, but had never had that big hit they needed to break through. Other artists were recording songs the two had written, but none of those had hit either. In 2011, country superstar Keith Urban not only decided to record a song written by Preston and Chris, but he was going to release it as a single. When I was talking with Preston, I asked him what it felt like when he got the call that Keith Urban was releasing their song. Here is what he said. "Things weren't going so good. I get this phone call. I'm in the backseat of my friends car and I get this phone call and it sounded like something was wrong. And he says, 'I'm sitting next to Keith Urban and he just told me that 'You Gonna Fly' is going to be his next single, and he's releasing it next week.' And I literally had them stop the car and I got out of the car and I just let out this yell. It just felt like I'm back." They were back. That song went to number one on the country charts. Preston and Chris then wrote a hit for Tim McGraw and eventually a top 5 hit for themselves. I guarantee that question about how it felt to get that call hasn't been asked many times if ever of Preston. We created such a relationship over the years that he still texts me. They just finished their latest song called "Hometown Home" and he sent me the early version. That kind of relationship doesn't happen with typical questions and standard answers. Your audience also isn't attracted to typical interviews. Be different. BE YOURSELF Over the years, my style and content developed. I became myself. That is when my show became #1. My content was original and fresh. Nobody else was doing it. If your content isn't great, nothing else matters. The production of your podcast could be the best available. You could have all the bells and whistles available in your studio, including the best mic. The marketing of your podcast could incredibly creative and unique. However, if the content is average, no one will care. Don't simply go through the motions creating your content. Find a unique angle. Your take on the subject should be interesting. Make your content stand out using stories, creativity, and personal revelation. Content won't attract an audience unless it is great content. When your content is great, you become king. Make it happen. There are four key areas of focus when creating great content and tightening up your show.  1. BE ORIGINAL Old-timey radio would say, "Hello Everybody in Radioland!" You're not an announcer talking to a group. Be a person talking to another person. To be engaging, you need to be human. You need to be yourself. As you record your podcast, use your natural voice and your own words. Individuals who are new to broadcasting tend to want to sound like their broadcasting idols. They try to imitate those they have heard on the radio with their voice and clichés. Unfortunately, new broadcasters tend to sound as if they are using scripted drivel done in some character voice that is forced and unnatural. You don't need to sound like Wolfman Jack, Howard Cosell, Don LaFontaine or Howard Stern. In fact, you shouldn't sound like those guys. The big personalities are who they are. You should be who you are. If you are naturally over-the-top, then be over-the-top. If you are not, don't fake it. You'll sound like an amateur and people can tell. Be natural. Talk with a little energy, but always deliver it as you naturally speak. The days of "the voice for radio" are gone. You don't need a big voice to be on the radio. And you surely don't need a big voice to create a podcast. Your voice becomes unique by what you say, not how you sound saying it. Be yourself. Use your own voice instead of trying to impersonate someone else. Use your natural voice and your own words. 2. REPEATING YOURSELF That's right, of course, like I said, obviously. If you find yourself saying "obviously" or "of course", you are making two mistakes. The first error is repeating yourself. If you are saying "obviously" because you feel everyone already knows the information, you are wasting your breath. If it is obvious, there is no need to say it. To frame it in a way to indicate it is something everyone knows, I might simply make a statement. I may say, "Because the sun comes up in the East, I prefer my bedroom windows be on the West side of the house." Everyone listening to me knows the sun comes up in the East. I simply include the statement. If I use a phrase like, "Of course", it appears I didn't want it to look like I was trying to teach you about the sunrise. I didn't want you to think I just learned that. "Of course" plays it off, but it also doesn't need to be there. If it is "of course", there is no need to say it in the first place. CONFIDENCE The second error is lack of confidence, so we add filler words. You may want to sound knowledgeable to those who know the information. Yet, you know there is a segment of the audience that does not know the details. To inform those unaware, you add the "of course". In this case, you're just wasting words. I may say, "The band will be at the arena Saturday night, of course." Some may be aware of this performance. Yet, there may be people in the audience who haven't heard the news. It makes sense to add the information, but you don't need the "of course". The idea is to sound knowledgeable and credible to those that already know, while providing the information to those unaware. You simply need to restructure you sentence and eliminate the cliché. Use a sentence like, "When the band is at the arena Saturday night, parking will be at a premium." This sentence provides new information to both segments of the audience. I include the "arena Saturday night" portion for the new listeners while giving those already aware of the concert new parking information. Both receive a benefit without the filler words. When you include "that's right" or "like I said", you are repeating yourself. Your listener heard you the first time. Most people use these cliches to fill time while they think of the next thing to say. Avoid going in circles. Your listener will quickly become uninterested. Know where you're going and keep moving forward. 3. ELIMINATE CLICHES I hear so many cliches in podcasts today. They are present in business in general. A cliché is a phrase or opinion that is overused and betrays a lack of original thought. It is a very predictable or unoriginal thing or person. We had a leader of our division who would use one particular cliché on every conference call we had. Every month, we would have a conference call to keep each station in sync. It would be run by our division leader. The call would then feature 4 or 5 other speakers covering various topics. The call would last about 30 minutes. After every speaker would finish their report, our division leader would say, "Really good stuff." "That was really good stuff, Ray." "Thanks, Sarah. Really good stuff." When he would talk about new resources that were available to us, he would wrap it up with "really good stuff". When he talked about new music coming out, he would call it "really good stuff". What started out as a compliment became a hollow nod that carried no weight. It was overused and lacked original thought. It was predictable. He got so predictable, as the speaker would wrap up, we would say to ourselves, “that was really good stuff” right before our leader would chime in with the same line. It kept us entertained on the call, but added nothing to the conversation. What cliches are you using? They are everywhere. Many times you don't realize it is a cliché until you start listening to your own show, or a coach points it out. The one that sounds most out of place to me on a podcast is, "To be honest with you". When somebody says "to be honest with you", I immediately think, "were you lying to me before?" What message are you trying to convey when you say, "to be honest with you"? I assume you are simply trying to add emphasis to what you are saying. In reality, the cliché has lost its power. It means nothing. It's a cliché. There are many others. We are thinking out of the box. We are pushing the envelope. We are taking it to the next level. It's Erik here to remind you something or another. You know what I mean? You know what I'm saying. Listen to an older episode or two of your show. Really listen to the shows like a listener. Find the cliches and eliminate them. Be original. 4. AVOID ROUGH TRANSITIONS And now it's time for … This phrase seems harmless. It looks like a logical transition from one segment to another during your podcast. Unfortunately, this phrase gives your listener permission to leave the show. When you use "and now it's time for..." or some similar phrase, it tells the listener that one segment is over and we are moving on to something else. It also signals a natural break in the show and the perfect time to exit. The transition is a lot like a commercial break in a television show. It is time to grab the remote to see what else is available. This is why TV shows started using the cliff hangers to keep you around. Famous American showman P. T. Barnum noticed that people were lingering too long at his exhibits. If he could get them through the exhibit faster, he could get more people through in a day and make more money. Barnum posted signs around the exhibit indicating "This Way to the Egress". Henry would ask Barbara, "Have you ever seen an egress? No? Let's check it out." Unaware that "Egress" simply meant "Exit", people followed the signs to what they assumed was a fascinating exhibit only to end up outside. Take down your "egress" sign. If you truly want to hold your listener from one segment to the next, don't send up the signal. Simply move to the next segment. THE TRANSITION On a coaching call the other day, I pointed out to the host that he was using "I want to keep this moving" quite often in his show. When he says "I want to keep this moving", I know we are switching to a new topic. I can punch out here if I'd like. Instead, just move on. Imagine you are at a cocktail party. You are discussing the baseball game that you saw over the weekend. After the baseball topic runs its course, do you say, "Now it's time to talk about my new car"? I doubt it. You probably just roll right into, "Hey, I bought a new car last week." It is a natural transition. Your friend doesn't think, "Hmm, that was a pretty rough transition." They have moved on right along with you. As you wrap up one segment, move right to the next. You might end the first segment with, "If you take those steps, things should be back to normal." Roll into the next with, "Jackie has a question about teamwork," and play the call. The next segment just starts. You've hooked them on the next segment without opening the door to leave. Don't flash the exit sign. Eliminate "and now it's time for" to hold your listener for the entire podcast. TIGHTER CONTENT Focus on these four areas to create great content. Avoid repeating yourself. Eliminate the cliches. Create smooth transitions in your content. Above all else, be original. When you be yourself and ask great questions, it will be difficult to copy you. The content will be original. And, people will love you for it.

Today, we're continuing our discussion on NFPA 101's  Life Safety Code. View our blog - https://mightylinetape.com/a/blog/understanding-exit-access-the-crucial-path-to-safety-nfpa-101 Specifically, we'll be covering the Means of Egress component known as Exit  Access, which is the path leading to an Exit. And in a later podcast, we'll be talking about the remaining two components,  Exit, and Exit Discharge. So stay tuned! NFPA defines Exit Access as "That portion of a means of egress that leads from an occupied area to a building exit."  Here are two examples of Exit Access: One, corridors that are commonly  separated by one or two-hour fire rated wall construction. And, two, walking  surfaces located within the occupancy that allow for unobstructed travel, and  provide slip-resistance under foreseeable conditions. It is also essential that exit travel distances comply with the Life Safety Code.  These factors should include occupancy load; nature of the fire load; occupancy  risk. Whether or not materials such as hazardous chemicals are involved in  storage, as well as other significant factors. Building construction and the number of floors also play a significant role in  determining exit travel distances. Other building systems that can impact travel distance may include detection  and alarm systems and automatic sprinkler systems. So be sure to consult the  Life Safety Code for those details as well. The key point to understand is that Exit Access must be clearly designated, and  delineated, and understood by employees and users of the building.  Also, safe routes of egress need to be included in emergency plans, and ideally  illustrated so that employees are able to see, review, and understand paths of  travel to exits. Equally important is that there be planning, preparedness, and drills so that  everyone understands the safe means of egress from buildings. And finally, delineating aisles intended for emergency egress is an essential part of the emergency planning process, and importantly, will be greatly appreciated by all employees and building occupants. We look forward to seeing you again in our future edition of Mighty Line Learn more at https://mightylinetape.com/

The concept of "Means of Egress" is not a common topic of conversation, but it holds a pivotal role in ensuring the safety of individuals within buildings during emergencies. In this extensive blog, we will embark on a detailed journey to explore the multifaceted world of Means of Egress, as defined by the National Fire Protection Association's (NFPA) NFPA 101 Life Safety Code. Viist to see the blogs by David Tabar and Mighty Line Monday Minute - https://mightylinetape.com/a/blog/author/david-tabar View all the Warehouse Safety Tips podcast - https://mightylinetape.com/pages/safetytips Free Sample Kits for Mighty Line floor tape - https://mightylinetape.com/pages/product-request-form Join us as we delve into the three critical components of egress and discover why understanding this subject transcends mere compliance—it's a moral obligation and shared responsibility. Defining Means of Egress: NFPA 101 defines Means of Egress as "a continuous and unobstructed way of travel from any point in a building or structure to a public way." This includes three distinct parts: Exit Access Exit Exit Discharge At its core, the Means of Egress is a lifeline, ensuring that individuals can safely evacuate a building during emergencies. To comprehend its importance fully, let's explore these components in detail. The Essence of Life-Safety: "Life-safety" is a term that encapsulates a commitment to preserving human lives. It goes beyond the codebook—it encompasses meticulous planning, design, and construction of building features. It considers the behavior of individuals and crowds in emergency situations, guaranteeing safe evacuation even during adverse conditions. Life-safety isn't just a set of regulations; it's a collective responsibility. OSHA, local building codes, and employers all share a stake in ensuring life-safety. Beyond legal obligations, it's a moral duty that each of us should embrace. The Real-World Implications: For those who have experienced fires, emergencies, or building evacuations, the gravity of these situations is all too familiar. It's a stark reminder of why understanding the Means of Egress is of paramount importance. In our forthcoming podcast, we will unravel the intricacies of Means of Egress Components, as outlined in the NFPA 101 Life Safety Code. These components include: Door Openings and Door Opening Widths Door Swing Direction Door Opening Latches & Hardware Door Operating Force Door Stair Enclosure Re-Entry Key-Operated Locks Special Locking Arrangements Sensor-Release of Electrical Locking Systems These components are intricate, and gaining an in-depth understanding is crucial. Consulting the NFPA 101 Life Safety Code is highly recommended. For specialized expertise, consider engaging a consultant with expertise in this field. Local authorities, such as fire marshals, company safety experts, or representatives from insurance organizations' loss control and life-safety departments, can provide valuable insights. A Deeper Dive Ahead: Stay tuned for next week's blog, where we will conduct a thorough exploration of the critical area of "Means of Egress" for occupant safety. Meanwhile, don't hesitate to reach out to Mighty Line, renowned for producing "the most durable stripe" used in industrial floor marking and exit travel. You can explore their products and services at MightyLineTape.com. Conclusion: Within the realm of building safety, the Means of Egress is far from a mere technical term—it is a lifeline, holding the power to protect lives during emergencies. As we delve deeper into this subject, remember that comprehending its components and recognizing the importance of life-safety is not just about compliance; it is a moral obligation that we all bear. Safety during emergencies is a shared responsibility, rooted in knowledge and preparedness.

STORY EPISODE – Joyous holiday season Venuelanders! As we prepare for an exciting 2024 with some incredible guests and bonus episodes, please enjoy this special holiday treat. Here is our version of that classic, fire-side story which will hopefully warm your heart – ‘Twas the Night Before Show Day.

"Bringing Queen City [Burlesque Festival] to life had a lot to do with wanting to apply what I had learned from being on the road. I volunteered at the Burlesque Hall of Fame for several years in a row as a tech assistant; I've volunteered at the Vancouver Burlesque Festival a few years in a row as well, and I've performed there; many of my friends are producers. It was really important to me to elevate what I was seeing, or what I wanted to bring to the table, and really offer exponential and incredible, sensational art for not only for [other burlesque performers] but obviously for the theater-goers. I want people to come to a burlesque show and realize this is art, that this is passion and it's an experience; and it's not just being at a bar and everyone being hammered and taking their clothes off; it can be that and that is its own thing, [but] that [theatre] environment is what I thrive on, that is what I love to create, to offer diversity and the talent." Burlesque artist Déjà Louve has been thrilling audiences in British Columbia for more than 9 years.  She and Viktor Devonne talk about ancestry, languages, accent marks, and running one's own festival, The Queen City Burlesque Festival.

"When it comes to my work, I'm not going to make stuff that's so esoteric and so personal and emotional that no one can access it; that's not entertainment... I've tried doing pieces where I was very weird and abstract and it's not satisfying. It's very satisfying if you can get somebody hooked in, if you can challenge somebody's thoughts about what what burlesque is; I think that's great. But I really can't get down with 'Well this is my art and these are my feelings and I'm just going to explode all over the stage and you're just going to have to watch'' I just don't think that that's thoughtful. I think you have to be thoughtful about your audience if you're going to go in front of an audience." Red Rum is a shocking talent based in Chicago, known for burlesque recreations of some of horror's greatest hits (Hellraiser! The Thing! Star Wars! They Live! The Dark Crystal!) as well as ooky spooky original creations.  This 2023 Siler Tusk Award winner for Monster Smash and Viktor talk taglines, makeup, sacred material, real life villains (her pantheon of Baddies) and what's 'too soon,' getting denied by Uber drivers, audience members doing the sign of the cross, what's actually scary, feeling sexy, and whether we'll ever see her on Dragula.

"I guess I've always been like a champion for the misfits, those who just don't belong; whatever that is. And I hope that people who see our show will feel that they can do it too, that they can take chances, that they can be naked; they don't have to hate their bodies just because society tells them [to.]... I just want people to smile, to feel good." Mika Romantic from Lehigh Valley, PA shares her story with Viktor, from the beginning of doing glove reveal classes for housewives to now running her own production company. We go in on topics like the Pussycat Dolls, her first act with the New York School of Burlesque which was an ambitious six minutes, awful dressing rooms, Harley Quinns that count, identifying as otaku, the desired MGM spectacular, feeling aged out, everyone fighting with each other, and embracing "the rotting phase."  (this conversation was recorded November 4, 2023)  website: https://www.mikaromanticandco.com/ https://burlesquegalaxy.com/listing/mika-romantic/ https://www.instagram.com/mikaromantic/ https://www.instagram.com/mikaromanticandco/ https://www.tiktok.com/@mika_romantic?lang=en https://21stcenturyburlesque.com/21-questions-mika-romantic-burlesque/ footnotes: more about Pussycat Dolls' origins can be found at https://www.udiscovermusic.com/stories/pussycat-dolls-buttons/  SUPPORT THE PODCAST: – patreon.com/weburlesque – venmo: @viktor-devonne – paypal: weburlesque@gmail.com – cashapp: $weburlesque All donations at $25 or above will get a signed 8×10 of Viktor Devonne, covered in flour. — WEBurlesque Podcast Network is the creation of Viktor Devonne.

"I just want to hopefully help end erasure in our scene and for everyone to have a moment of self-discovery and self-ideology and a moment of 'let me check myself, let me go ahead and try to go ahead and learn about this' and then spread that knowledge to somebody else." Bella Sin returns to the pod to discuss the project Decolinizing Burlesque, which is being made available for FREE this November, aiding in the amplifciation of BIPOC and queer burlesque performers in history who are often forgotten.  Bella Sin is a powerhouse in Cleveland, Ohio as an entertainer, a makeup mogul, festival producer, and educator.  They attained The Mentor Award distinction at the Silver Tusk Awards 2023.

"I think we're a generation that recognizes that acknowledging and shining a light on people is important--to them, and to us. It makes me feel better when I can shine a light on someone and say 'Look what they did.'" Desiré D'Amour has been stripping since the 90s, and in burlesque for nearly 24 years. Telling tales from the San Francisco strip club to the legendary goat ranch years of Exotic World to the current incarnation of Burlesque Hall of Fame (and its spectacular Weekender), Desiré shares with Viktor thoughts on bridging the gap between historical burlesque and its present incarnation, proper pronouncing and advocating for correcting others, jealousy, diversity versus tokenism, learning from Harvest Moon and the Cantankerous Lollies, that famous backbend, what is and is not and is and is not burlesque (and being open to reconsidering), the evidently contentious response to the royal court of Miss Exotic World 2023, technology affecting burlesque and industry connection, the purpose of Ranch Undressing, and maybe a glimmer of what's to come.

"Oh, there was always a fight or two in the dressing room, someone getting her hair pulled. But most of us were fucking each other, so we got along pretty well." Madame E. tells all the best stories from the debauchery and fun (and serious work!) of stripping in Honolulu, Guam, and beyond before the neoburlesque boom of the late 80s and 90s. Recognized rightfully as a burlesque legend, Madame E has returned to the stage in her 70s, soon to feature at Fat-lesque in Seattle come January 2024, and was recently seen at the Burlesque Hall of Fame in June of this year, peeling it off to a medley of Moody Blues and Billy Idol. But his rock chick has soulful roots in the burlesque scene, largely dancing to the blues for the likes of Pee Wee Herman, Rod Stewart, and Bill Cosby! We could only cover so much in this brief storytime but you'll be enchanted by every word, and we'll bring her back soon to tell us even more dish we couldn't cover. But we did manage to include a few tidbits on her peers in the legends circle, from Toni Elling to Bambi Jones to Bic Carroll to Dixie Evans. Viktor Devonne has, since this recording, been adopted as a burlesque child of this firecracker, and he doesn't know how he got so lucky. AND YES, we talk about the sailor party (iykyk and you will).

"I'm wearing platform heels but it still gives off masculine energy... People especially in the gay community, people either want you very masc or very fem... I feel it's whatever mood I'm in."

"It got me out of a really deep depression spell; I still live with depression. I tell people even when I'm smiling happy, and I have great days, I still live with depression. But I can say for sure that since I've consistently been performing, the days that have been bad have been few and farther between.  Burlesque hs really opened that part of my life up for me, in the healing component of things.  I didn't realize I needed dance as therapy too. Sitting in an office or on a zoom call twice a week is important, but I wasn't releasing anything out of my physical body. I was talking a lot of the feelings out, but to dance them out is a whole different thing." Dancer, model, and makeup artist Harlem Nyte delights Viktor Devonne while chatting about the road that led to beginning burlesque 2 years ago.  Just off the Ohio Burlesque Festival stage, this shaker from Chicago is regularly seen with Body Confidence for Queens. We talk early dance, bodies on stage, being mouthy, and going to where one is celebrated.  (this conversation was recorded September 26, 2023)  footnotes: the Black Burlesque Performer Directory mentioned during the episode is: https://www.itspochop.com/black-burlesque-directory the post Harlem refers to re: the body positive movement can be seen at: https://www.instagram.com/p/CxayoLoLYBc/ Instagram: @missharlemnyte Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@harlem.nyte SUPPORT THE PODCAST: – patreon.com/weburlesque – venmo: @viktor-devonne – paypal: weburlesque@gmail.com – cashapp: $weburlesque All donations at $25 or above will get a signed 8×10 of Viktor Devonne, covered in flour. — WEBurlesque Podcast Network is the creation of Viktor Devonne.

In Episode 311: The Mysterious Egress Industries, we are joined by Kyle and Steve from The Holosky Podcast. A couple of months ago I was contacted by a mutual listener, informing me about some of the crazy things that were happening on their show. Boy, they were not kidding! It all started when Steve was doing some research on Reddit for one of their upcoming shows, and stumbled across "dream flyers" that asked peculiar questions and advertised a phone number for "Egress Industries." Steve thought it could be an interesting idea for the show, and bought a burner phone to conduct their experiment. Steve and Kyle used it to contact the number on the flyer, and that's when things began to progress out of hand! They were connected to a guy named Bob who was also experiencing bizarre happenings involving the Egress Industries' phone number. When the three started talking, Egress immediately knew about it, and began texting their phones and the phones of some of their acquaintances - numbers they never should have had access to! Egress even started to text Kyle's co-worker, and may have possibly made an in-person visit to Kyle's wife. As the story unfolds, it became clear that just by the simple fact that Kyle and Steve were speaking with me about them, I may now be on the radar of the mysterious Egress Industries!
