In this episode of Tales from the Table, we take you behind the scenes of our last arc in the Pirates of the Lost Fleet campaign. Join the crew as we break down the chaotic high-seas action, unexpected character moments, and the wild curveballs that kept both the players and the DM on their toes. From daring naval battles to mysterious map fragments, we reflect on how the last few episodes came together, the choices that shaped the story, and the shenanigans that didn't make the final cut. It's a fun, spoiler-filled look at the adventure from the other side of the screen.

After spending a decade working for appsec vendors, Grant McKracken wanted to give something back. He saw a gap in the market for free or low-cost services for smaller organizations that have real appsec needs, but not a lot of means to pay for it. He founded DarkHorse, who offers VDPs and bug bounties to organizations of all sizes for free, or for as low of cost as possible. While not a non-profit, the company's goal is to make these services as cheap as possible to increase accessibility for smaller or more budget-constrained organizations. The company has also introduced the concept of "fractional pentesting", access to cyber talent when and how you need it, based on what you can afford. This implies services beyond just offensive security, something we'll dive deeper into in the interview. We don't see DarkHorse ever competing with the larger Bug Bounty platforms, but rather providing services to the organizations too small for the larger platforms to sell to.

After the ApocalypseA pandemic survival storySeason one, Episode Fourteen, “Run”Janet ran......and the obscenities pouring from the man she had just left bleeding in the dirt faded away…like the man himself. He was nothing. He was a threat that had been dealt with. Like she always dealt with threats. She had the hard skills, built up over years of practice. She could dominate most situations. Her force of will bent others to her path. And if they didn't bend, they got run over or shoved aside. KJ the Killer. ...and she ran. ...Outro S1E14Hello my fellow survivors. How is the apocalypse treating you? This is Chris your host. And a fine Saturday morning it is up here in New England. We had a storm fly through yesterday with wind and rain and snow. I was worried about our friend Tim who has been helping with the story ideas and editing. He's been out on the Appalachian trail for 2 weeks.  He's currently passing through the area near where Janet and the old man are struggling to survive the apocalypse in our story. Imagine if a storm like this hit out in the Smoky Mountains while they're out in the trail? I'll have to see if we can work a storm into the story. When I was a teenager, I spent a week hiking in the Joyce Kilmer National Forest which is near there, a bit south.   It would have been this time of year. I remember we did get an ice storms a couple days, but you just crawl into your tent and wait it out. I remember waking up an hitting the plastic tarp overhead and the ice shattering and sliding off. But we survived. I would have been 16 and just rolling out of wrestling season, so stupid but indestructible. …Speaking of hiking adventures in the wilderness, my wife forced me to watch a movie called Into the Grizzly Maze from 2015, mostly because she likes to look at the actor James Marsden.  I'll be honest it was a silly movie about an angry Grizzly bear who likes to eat people. For some reason they talked some A-list talent into it. Billy Bob Thorton is underused as the bear hunter, think Quint from Jaws. Thomas Jane was one of the main characters, who is one of my favorite actors, you may know him as detective Joe Miller in The Expanse, which is one of the best hard space Scifi shows to come out recently. Or, for you Marvel fans, Thomas Jane was the original Punisher who went after John Travolta in 2004. God knows how these actors got caught up in the hot mess that is ‘Grizzly Maze”. I suspect a paycheck was involved. …Looking out my office window this morning, the forsythia is out and my cherry tree is about to bloom. What did you think of this week's story? Janet is discovering or rediscovering her strength and how it can help her in the Apocalypse. … I've been reading through a SciFi series called the Lost Fleet over the last year. I'm about to crack into the 8th and final book. It's a Space Epic but I also realized last night that it parallels Xenophon's Anabasis.  Bear with me, here. Xenophon was a Greek mercenary with a force of 10,000 other Greek mercenaries hired by Cyrus the Younger to help him seize the throne of Persia from his brother, Artaxerxes II, in 401 BC. Note this is before Rome, and a70 years before Alexander the Great. Anyhow, they march deep into Babylon and Cyrus gets killed in battle. The opposing Persian commander invites the Greek leader and his staff to a banquet to talk things out and instead has them killed. This leaves the 10,000 Greek mercenaries deep in hostile territory with no leaders. So they elect Xenophon, who leads them out of Persia and back to Greece with a tactically brilliant retreat. To make a long story short that is exactly the story line of this lost fleet series, except with spaceships. I feel like I have to reach out to the author and ask him if that was his intent. I'd be curious to know if it was or if it was just an example of how universal human stories are. If you want to delve more deeply into any of this the links are in the show notes and on an accompanying post at my Patreon page. Survivors, we are about to crack 4,00 downloads, which is good, but we can do better! I need your help. I need you to like the show, post a review and, most importantly, tell 3 friends about it. Please share the show on social. I really want to start publishing weekly, but I can't afford to unless I get more survivors to tune in. I'm just a guy doing what he loves, not a corporation, so I need your help. If you enjoy the story help me keep it going by contributing $5, $10, $20 to the Patreon. It is Patreon.com/aftertheapocalypse all one word. Do it now. Let's keep it going and until next time, keep surviving. …  Get bonus content on Patreon See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-436 – Farm to Fork Fondo  (Audio: link) audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4435.mp3] Link MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - Intro: Hellos and welcome to the badly delayed episode 4-436 of the RunRunLive podcast.  Today's show is about farming.  It's about growing things.  It's about the late summer harvest of ideas and endurance.  We have a chat with retired professional cyclist Tyler Wren who has started a post-pro life around supporting local farms in Vermont called farm to fork fitness.  I ran into him because I've been doing a long bike ride at least once a week and thinking about the impact that the current apocalypse has had on these local farms and families.  With the restaurants closed it impact specialized growers adversely.  The specialized stuff, the local stuff, is the good for you stuff.  I'd hate to see even more of them disappear.  To see even more beautiful tracks of rural land turned into vacation condos.  In section one I'm going to muse on what my running has taught me in the month of July as I push through the heat and humidity.  In section two I'm going to talk about the history of agriculture.   Because, that's our theme.  I'm doing fine, just busy with work and training and my wife needing me to do pointless man-things like paint the house.  It all stacks up and, you, my unfortunate friends are made to suffer the vacuum of my attentions.  I'm healthy.  Ollie is healthy.  We've been getting in a lot of miles in the trails.  I'm starting to move into some fairly good volume as I target running the Wapack and back with Eric and anyone else who wants to come next month.  More about that in the outro. … My own garden is hit and miss this year.  I planted a lot of squash but it seems to have gotten a late start and I'm only getting a few.  Whereas in other years I've gotten piles of zucchini and summer squash, this year only a few have battled through.  The root borers are into the stalks now and that usually kills anything left. My berry patch has been less than spectacular as well.  I have a very mature and robust patch of red raspberries.  These are hybrids and have multiple sets of large berries.  But I've also got a bunch of the native black raspberry canes that are muscling their way into my garden like unwanted ruffians at a genteel social event.  Both of these typically overwhelm me with berries. Not this year.  We seem to have a boom in wildlife.  Something ate most of my red raspberries. I think it's the birds.  I'm getting the Black ones now but they are getting poached as well.  In other years I would pull several pints a week out of the patch. This year I have salvaged barely enough to flavor 2 bowls of oatmeal. My tomatoes are just coming on now.  A few weeks late.  I'm keeping an eye on them because I have a chipmunk problem as well.  The chipmunks won't necessarily eat your tomatoes and squash but they will bite into them.  The rodents also burrow around a bit as well.  Ripping up the plants in general.  They got my curly parsley.  I had it growing in a pot in my garden and something burrowed into the pot and ate the root.  Left the parsley.  Ate the root.  Then the next day they came back and ate the parsley.  Not sure whether that was the chipmunk or some other kind of rodent.  It was a very precisely executed crime.  I suspect on orders of the rodent syndicate. Understand that my garden is heavily fortified.  This isn't my first rodent rodeo.  I've got a 4-foot fence with chicken wire buried into the ground.  That keeps the Woodchucks and rabbits out.  Speaking of rabbits and woodchucks, I've given up on trying to trap the woodchucks and rabbits in the yard this year.  There are so many of them.  There's only one reasonable solution. I'm going to have to get a falcon.  Yup.  I'll stand out there like an angry old god, whisper something to my hooded assassin and let my falcon swoop down and rain terror from above on all the various and sundry critters that impede my green thumb.  I will be the raptor rodent apocalypse. I've got some cucumbers coming, but those are late as well.  I have some pepper plants that seem to be doing well.  I replanted some beans that never came up and should have some of those to eat at the end of the month.  The only successful plant in my garden is the kale.  Successful in the sense that I've got enough if I want to eat kale for lunch. The challenge with the kale is that it gets the cabbage worms on it and you can either spray them of try to pick them off.  It's a battle that is currently about a tie.  Each day I go out and pick off and squish as many as I can find but each day the kale is full of holes like Swiss cheese.

These landowners use that land to grow food that can make us better athletes and healthier people. With the Farm to Fork Fitness Adventure series, I want people to experience beautiful iconic farmland through exercise, meet the hardworking farmers who are fighting the good fight, learn about the pressures that these farms face, and have a great time in the process.

The RunRunLive 4.0 Podcast Episode 4-436 – Farm to Fork Fondo  (Audio: link) audio:http://www.RunRunLive.com/PodcastEpisodes/epi4435.mp3] Link MarathonBQ – How to Qualify for the Boston Marathon in 14 Weeks - Intro: Hellos and welcome to the badly delayed episode 4-436 of the RunRunLive podcast.  Today’s show is about farming.  It’s about growing things.  It’s about the late summer harvest of ideas and endurance.  We have a chat with retired professional cyclist Tyler Wren who has started a post-pro life around supporting local farms in Vermont called farm to fork fitness.  I ran into him because I’ve been doing a long bike ride at least once a week and thinking about the impact that the current apocalypse has had on these local farms and families.  With the restaurants closed it impact specialized growers adversely.  The specialized stuff, the local stuff, is the good for you stuff.  I’d hate to see even more of them disappear.  To see even more beautiful tracks of rural land turned into vacation condos.  In section one I’m going to muse on what my running has taught me in the month of July as I push through the heat and humidity.  In section two I’m going to talk about the history of agriculture.   Because, that’s our theme.  I’m doing fine, just busy with work and training and my wife needing me to do pointless man-things like paint the house.  It all stacks up and, you, my unfortunate friends are made to suffer the vacuum of my attentions.  I’m healthy.  Ollie is healthy.  We’ve been getting in a lot of miles in the trails.  I’m starting to move into some fairly good volume as I target running the Wapack and back with Eric and anyone else who wants to come next month.  More about that in the outro. … My own garden is hit and miss this year.  I planted a lot of squash but it seems to have gotten a late start and I’m only getting a few.  Whereas in other years I’ve gotten piles of zucchini and summer squash, this year only a few have battled through.  The root borers are into the stalks now and that usually kills anything left. My berry patch has been less than spectacular as well.  I have a very mature and robust patch of red raspberries.  These are hybrids and have multiple sets of large berries.  But I’ve also got a bunch of the native black raspberry canes that are muscling their way into my garden like unwanted ruffians at a genteel social event.  Both of these typically overwhelm me with berries. Not this year.  We seem to have a boom in wildlife.  Something ate most of my red raspberries. I think it’s the birds.  I’m getting the Black ones now but they are getting poached as well.  In other years I would pull several pints a week out of the patch. This year I have salvaged barely enough to flavor 2 bowls of oatmeal. My tomatoes are just coming on now.  A few weeks late.  I’m keeping an eye on them because I have a chipmunk problem as well.  The chipmunks won’t necessarily eat your tomatoes and squash but they will bite into them.  The rodents also burrow around a bit as well.  Ripping up the plants in general.  They got my curly parsley.  I had it growing in a pot in my garden and something burrowed into the pot and ate the root.  Left the parsley.  Ate the root.  Then the next day they came back and ate the parsley.  Not sure whether that was the chipmunk or some other kind of rodent.  It was a very precisely executed crime.  I suspect on orders of the rodent syndicate. Understand that my garden is heavily fortified.  This isn’t my first rodent rodeo.  I’ve got a 4-foot fence with chicken wire buried into the ground.  That keeps the Woodchucks and rabbits out.  Speaking of rabbits and woodchucks, I’ve given up on trying to trap the woodchucks and rabbits in the yard this year.  There are so many of them.  There’s only one reasonable solution. I’m going to have to get a falcon.  Yup.  I’ll stand out there like an angry old god, whisper something to my hooded assassin and let my falcon swoop down and rain terror from above on all the various and sundry critters that impede my green thumb.  I will be the raptor rodent apocalypse. I’ve got some cucumbers coming, but those are late as well.  I have some pepper plants that seem to be doing well.  I replanted some beans that never came up and should have some of those to eat at the end of the month.  The only successful plant in my garden is the kale.  Successful in the sense that I’ve got enough if I want to eat kale for lunch. The challenge with the kale is that it gets the cabbage worms on it and you can either spray them of try to pick them off.  It’s a battle that is currently about a tie.  Each day I go out and pick off and squish as many as I can find but each day the kale is full of holes like Swiss cheese. So that’s it.  Hours of gardening to produce a handful of berries and some buggy kale.  If I was farming for a living I would have starved to death years ago.  Each day I go out, because I’m working from home int eh apocalypse, and gather what ever seems to be ripe enough for my lunch salad.  I try to scrub the worms off the kale, but I know I’m eating a lot of bugs in my salads. It’s probably good for me.  They recently re-examined human coprolites from the Paisley Caves in Oregon.  These had been dated to more than 14,000 years old.  The great glaciers were beating a hasty retreat.  The trouble was that everyone though homo sapiens only arrived 13,000 years ago.  They wrote these coprolites off as animal scat that was tainted by human handling.  recently they discovered that this was indeed human poop from 14,000 years ago.  They were able to section that poop and see what we were eating as hunters and gatherers.  Turns out there wasn’t a lot of mastodon and buffalo.  Sure, there was the occasional bit of mammoth, but it was mostly plants and seeds and rodents with a fair number of insect carapaces.  It would seem I haven’t progressed too far from  therewith my own garden.  Think about that today as we talk about farming.  I have the advantage of water and modern seeds and I probably pulling 180 calories of vegetable out of that garden on a given day.  Think about the early farmers who had to grow enough calories to last a whole year, and that after giving 30% to some tyrant.
