In the electric chaos of DEF CON—where dial tones, solder smoke, and hacker legends collide—one figure stands out: John Aff, aka PANDA.A veteran in the hacker community, he moves effortlessly between challenge design, telephony wizardry, mesh networking experiments, and the culture that surrounds it all.Behind the reputation is a journey that started with game hacking, shifted into enterprise security, and evolved into a life built around creativity, community, and technical obsession. It's also a story of identity—of finding a place where personal expression and professional skill finally intersected.This conversation pulls back the curtain on a mind shaped by curiosity, lived experience, and a deep love for the craft.CHAPTERS00:00 - Introduction to Barcode Podcast00:24 - Meet Panda: Cybersecurity Icon01:47 - Panda's Journey into Cybersecurity10:12 - Creating Interactive Challenges for Conferences22:11 - Badge Building: The Art and Science28:00 - Lessons from Offensive Security for Defenders30:11 - Winning the TeleChallenge: A Team Effort35:10 - Nostalgia in Gaming: The Phone Verse Experience37:30 - Understanding LoRa and Mesh Networking43:20 - Real-World Applications of MeshTastic Technology49:14 - The Intersection of Furry Culture and Cybersecurity56:54 - Community Building and Future Aspirations in TechLINKSTeleFreak – https://telefreak.org Home of the legendary TeleChallenge and a cornerstone of phreaking culture at DEF CON.DEF CON – https://defcon.org The world's largest hacker conference and the backdrop for many of Panda's stories, competitions, and breakthroughs.RedSeer Security – https://redseersecurity.com The security practice Panda supports on the defensive and strategic side.Assura, Inc. – https://assurainc.com Where Panda leads offensive security operations and continuous testing programs.MeshTastic – https://meshtastic.org Open-source long-range mesh communication project central to Panda's community work.Comms For All – https://commsforall.com Panda's initiative focused on mesh networking, LoRa radios, and community education.B-Sides Jax – https://bsidesjax.org Conference where Panda built the interactive phone-based badge challenge.HackSpaceCon – https://hackspacecon.com The first conference where you and Panda crossed paths; a major Florida hacker gathering.JLCPCB – https://jlcpcb.com PCB manufacturing service used for producing custom badge hardware.EasyEDA – https://easyeda.com Design tool Panda uses to create the multilayer art and circuitry for badges.Vectorizer.AI – https://vectorizer.ai The AI-powered tool Panda relies on to convert artwork into vector format for PCB badge design.KiCad – https://kicad.org Open-source PCB design suite used for laying out circuits and prototyping badge hardware.Adtran – https://www.adtran.com Telecom hardware vendor whose legacy gateways were used in the BSides Jax phone challenge.QueerCon – https://www.queercon.org Long-running LGBTQ+ hacker community at DEF CON that collaborated with Panda on early badge projects.National Cyber Games (NCA Cyber Games) – https://nationalcybergames.org Competition platform where Panda designed MeshTastic-based CTF challenges.UNF Osprey Security – https://www.unf.edu University of North Florida's student security group that runs CTFs and collaborated locally with Panda.HackRedCon – https://hackredcon.com Security conference where Panda volunteers and participates in community events.Jax2600 – https://2600.com Local chapter of the classic 2600 hacker community, part of Panda's long-term involvement in grassroots infosec groups.Backdoors & Breaches – https://blackhillsinfosec.com/projects/backdoors-breaches Incident response card game Panda used for blue team development and tabletop exercises.

This week my special podcast guest is Matthias Wagner, CEO of Flux! Mattias and I chat about  why hardware innovation is more important now than ever before, Flux's recent agentic AI updates and what the future looks like for this exciting browser-based PCB design tool. Also this week, I check out a new ultrasound controlled artificial muscle developed by a team of researchers from ETH Zurich.

Welcome to another episode of The Electropages Podcast, hosted by Robin Mitchell. Today's guest is Jerry Metcalf, Business Development Manager at Cinch Connectivity Solutions, a Bel Fuse company. In this episode, Jerry introduces CIN:APSE, a solderless compression interconnect system that removes the weaknesses of traditional solder joints. The technology allows components to be clamped directly onto flat PCB pads, improving reliability, reducing manufacturing time, and enabling easy recovery of high-value parts without the risk of rework damage. The discussion explores how CIN:APSE performs under extreme vibration, shock, and temperature variation, why it's trusted in space and defence systems, and how it's finding new relevance in AI and high-performance computing. Jerry also explains how its simplicity and modularity make it ideal for compact, low-profile designs and high-reliability environments where maintenance access is limited. Watch to learn how CIN:APSE is redefining connector design for next-generation modular electronics and mission-critical applications.

In this solo episode, Darin takes on the “beef tallow” craze that's been sweeping the wellness world — exposing the industry manipulation, environmental costs, and scientific inaccuracies behind the trend. From skincare to supplements, companies are selling animal byproducts as miracle cures — but what's really happening behind the scenes? Darin dives into the industrial rendering process, the hidden pollution of factory farming, and the false “ancestral” marketing that's convincing people to buy into a billion-dollar rebrand of waste. This episode isn't about guilt — it's about truth, awareness, and sovereignty. Because when you know how the system really works, you can choose differently.     What You'll Learn 00:00:00 – Why Darin decided to peel back the layers on the beef tallow trend 00:01:00 – What tallow actually is: industrially rendered animal fat from slaughterhouse byproducts 00:03:00 – The dirty details: high-heat rendering, bleaching, deodorizing, and chemical refining 00:06:00 – The hidden foundation of factory farming and the myth of “ancestral” sourcing 00:08:00 – The human and environmental toll of the tallow supply chain — pollution, stress, and labor exploitation 00:10:00 – Marketing manipulation: how “natural” language disguises industrial exploitation 00:12:00 – Science check: why tallow isn't nutritionally superior to seed oils 00:14:00 – The clinical data: saturated vs. polyunsaturated fats and heart health 00:16:00 – The real safety issues — prion disease, contaminants, oxidation, and hidden toxins 00:18:00 – Why skincare claims are unproven — no data shows tallow outperforms plant oils 00:20:00 – The illusion of “zero-waste”: how byproduct economics fuel more slaughter 00:22:00 – What “natural” actually costs — to the planet, animals, and human health 00:24:00 – The path forward: transparency, awareness, and choosing regenerative alternatives 00:26:00 – The SuperLife perspective: stop calling destruction natural — awareness is the first step toward change     Thank You to Our Sponsors Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

Monsanto has settled with more than 200 people in Monroe, Washington, who were exposed to PCBs -- toxic chemicals once produced by the company. Students, parents and staff at the Sky Valley alternative school in Snohomish County, had filed lawsuits against Monsanto starting in 2018, after reporting significant illnesses. The amount of the settlement has not been revealed, but it looks to possibly be the largest settlement over PCB exposure at a single site.

Join host Zach Peterson as he sits down with industry veteran Dan Beaulieu, founder and president of DB Management Group, to explore the dramatic transformation of the PCB manufacturing landscape. With over 30 years of experience working with hundreds of companies, Dan provides unique insights into how the industry has evolved from 1,300 North American PCB shops in 2005 to just 130 today, with 90 of them under $5 million in revenue.   In this compelling discussion, Dan shares his perspective on the consolidation wave reshaping the industry, the challenges facing smaller "mom and pop" PCB shops, and the critical role of venture capital in driving growth and technological advancement. He also delves into emerging opportunities in substrate manufacturing and microelectronics, the importance of superior customer service as a competitive differentiator, and strategies for attracting and training the next generation of PCB professionals.  

After a long break (and a few listener wellness checks!), Chris and Melissa return to catch up on what's kept them busy and share some updates from around the industry.
