Jerry opens the show arguing: just sell the booze already. Ontario is sitting on a $79.1‑million stockpile of delisted U.S. alcohol, and storing it could cost taxpayers up to $20 million a year. Meanwhile, Manitoba has lifted its U.S. booze ban so it can sell off wines and liqueurs before they expire. Next, Jerry discusses two criminal cases with very different legal outcomes. Ontario police are using spyware that can remotely take over your smartphone, and they’re fighting to keep almost everything about it secret. Jerry speaks with Boris Bytensky, criminal lawyer with CrimLawCanada.com and former President of the Criminal Lawyers’ Association, about the implications of this. “No, I don’t want my kids using your stupid AI.” Jerry speaks with Katherine Martinko, author of Childhood Unplugged: Practical Advice to Get Kids Off Screens and Find Balance, about how families can push back against AI and tech creep.

What do we know about it? Should kids have more recess time? GUESTS: Kim Schofield - criminal defence lawyer Doug Downey - Ontario Attorney General Jamaal Myers - TTC board chair

Katherine Boyle speaks with Sarah Rogers, Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy, about the intersection of AI, free speech, and global information systems. They discuss how major technological shifts, from the printing press to the internet to AI, have reshaped communication and power, and why this moment may be even more consequential. Recorded at the a16z American Dynamism Summit, the conversation explores the role of public diplomacy in the digital age, the risks of censorship and overregulation, and how governments are approaching AI as both a national security priority and a platform for global influence. Rogers also highlights the importance of maintaining “AI with a Western soul,” and why preserving open systems and freedom of expression will shape the future of innovation.   Resources: Follow Sarah B.

The F.B.I. thought it was a great idea to buy an Israeli company who developed spyware named Pegasus. After assuring the public that they had no intention of ever using it, especially on the general population... that's exactly what they did!  What is Pegasus? How does it work? What does it do? Do you have it on your phone, ipad, macbook etc.? The answer is probably yes.  Let's look into all of this and find out what it is, what it does, where it is and if there is anything we can do about it.Email us at: downtherh@protonmail.com

Welcome to another Friday edition of The Rizzuto Show — your favorite daily dose of chaos disguised as a comedy podcast. Today's episode kicks off with something rare for us: actual useful information. There's a major iPhone spyware warning making the rounds, and yes, we strongly recommend updating your phone unless you want your personal data casually hanging out with the Russian mafia. No big deal.Of course, we can't stay serious for long. Within minutes, we're deep into one of the most heated debates of the year: the Mount Rushmore of Canadian rock bands. Rush is a lock, but after that? Things get… aggressive. Nickelback enters the chat, Bryan Adams gets defended way too passionately, and somehow we all leave more confused than when we started. It's the kind of argument that proves this comedy podcast is less about answers and more about yelling confidently.From there, we roll into “Crap On Celebrities,” where we cover everything from ACDC health updates to Nine Inch Nails rumors, Dave Grohl's very public therapy era, and Jelly Roll dropping motivation that honestly makes us feel like we should go for a walk… but probably won't.Then things take a turn into reality TV chaos. A Bachelorette season gets completely scrapped after some pretty wild footage surfaces, and we try to wrap our heads around how you go from “Will you marry me?” to “This show no longer exists.” It's messy, it's uncomfortable, and naturally, we talk about it way too long.We also hit rock band logos, Fox Theatre stories (including a tequila-fueled season ticket decision that aged exactly how you'd expect), Chuck Norris being indestructible, and John Stamos getting his first tattoo at 62 — because apparently we're all just figuring things out as we go.It's loud, it's all over the place, and it's exactly what you expect from a Friday comedy podcast with The Rizzuto Show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our WTH saga on Chinese espionage continues with a new installment on the technology inside your car. Chris Miller details “Huawei on wheels”: the security threat posed by Chinese EVs, whose sensors, cameras, microphones, and radars can transmit data directly from your car to servers in China. You might be thinking, “I don't drive a Chinese car, so I'm safe.” Unfortunately, the broader trend is cause for serious alarm. Our European allies have once again failed to regulate Chinese influence and are adopting low-cost autonomous driving technology and communication components from China that report to Chinese satellites. Why doesn't this national security threat receive the congressional attention it deserves? Marc's thesis rings true: the more we comingle our economy with China, the harder it will be to remove threats and roll back poor policy decisions. As Chris Miller puts it, “These are smartphones on wheels, and we've got to treat them with the requisite level of security concern.”Chris Miller is a nonresident senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, where he focuses on Russian foreign policy, Ukraine, and broader Eurasia. He specializes in semiconductors and the geopolitics of technology. His latest book Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology reveals the geopolitical history of the computer chip. It is a New York Times bestseller and a winner of the 2022 Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award.Read the transcript here.Subscribe to our Substack here.

Disclaimer: We are not professionals. This podcast is opinioned based and from life experience. This is for entertainment purposes only. Opinions helped by our guests may not reflect our own. But we love a good conversation.In this 2 Be Better Podcast episode, Chris and Peaches walk you through a full list of cheating apps for 2025, from “news” and calculator clones to secret chat apps, vaults, and full blown spyware designed to hide affairs. They break down how apps like disguised news feeds, private messengers, secret calculators, vault stock, private message boxes, and hidden photo folders actually work, including fake icons, decoy vaults, self destructing chats, and notifications that look like harmless news alerts. They also cover spying tools like Spynger, GPS spoofers, keyloggers, and screen recorders marketed as “catch a cheating spouse” apps, and talk bluntly about how dangerous this tech is when it gets into the hands of controlling or abusive partners. From there, the conversation shifts to what all of this really means for trust, infidelity, and emotional safety in relationships. You will hear hard truth on online cheating, porn as a form of infidelity, anxiety and BPD spirals, and why if you are tempted to install a spy app on your partner's phone, the real issue is that the relationship is already broken. Chris and Peaches give you a clear framework for when to leave instead of snooping, how to own your insecurity and start healing, and how to protect your kids from the dark side of smartphones with things like kid safe phones and simple tools like AirTags instead of handing them full internet access. If you are searching for “cheating apps 2025,” “secret messaging apps,” “how to catch a cheater,” “hidden vault apps,” or answers about privacy, trust, and boundaries in marriage and dating, this video will give you clarity, language, and a path forward instead of feeding your paranoia.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/2-be-better--5828421/support.

In this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we discuss some intel being shared in the LimaCharlie community.Google's Threat Intelligence Group has observed a significant shift in 2025, threat actors are no longer using AI to just speed up operations, they are now integrating LLMs directly into the malware.Unit 42 has identified a previously undocumented Android spyware family, named LandFall, discovered during an investigation into iOS exploit chains involving malicious DNG images.Microsoft's November Patch Tuesday rollout includes fixes for over 60 vulnerabilities, one of which is a zero-day privilege escalation flaw in the Windows kernel that has already been exploited in the wild.Former executive at L3Harris Trenchant, Peter Williams, has pleaded guilty in U.S. federal court to selling 8 trade secrets valued at over 1.3 million to a Russian-based software broker involved in the zero-day exploit market.Support our show by sharing your favorite episodes with a friend, subscribe, give us a rating or leave a comment on your podcast platform.This podcast is brought to you by LimaCharlie, maker of the SecOps Cloud Platform, infrastructure for SecOps where everything is built API first.

Rachel Maddow explains that while much of Donald Trump's abuse of power is typical of authoritarians, Trump has a new tool that no authoritarian before him has had: extremely advanced spyware. Trump is already deploying this new weapon through ICE, which intends to use this surveillance technology against immigrants but also against Americans who protest against ICE, and anyone they might snare with an extremely loose definition of "anti-fascist."Rachel Maddow considers reasons why protesting against authoritarians is important, from feeling empowered to ensuring that important rights don't atrophy or get taken away when they're not in use. But another important use for protest is to send a message to the people and entities that would capitulate and become accomplices in the authoritarian's abuses.Marc Elias, attorney and founder of Democracy Docket, talks with Rachel Maddow about the fight he expects Donald Trump to put up as Trump's unpopularity makes a clean election victory less likely. Even as Trump will abuse the power and credibility of the Justice Department to serve his ends, his past bad faith in making bogus election fraud accusations gives his legal opponents an advantage.

Jen Roberts, Associate Director of the Atlantic Council's Cyber Statecraft Initiative, and Sarah Graham, Research Consultant with the Atlantic Council's Cyber Statecraft Initiative, who are coauthors along with Nitansha Bansal of the recent paper, “Mythical Beasts: Diving Into the Depths of the Global Spyware Market,” join Lawfare's Justin Sherman to discuss the global spyware industry, how it has evolved in recent years, and what its future holds. They also discuss the geographic concentration of key spyware entities in several countries; a rise in U.S. investors in the spyware industry; how “strategic jurisdiction hopping,” name changes, and corporate structure shifts impact spyware firms' evolution and transparency into their activities; and how U.S. policymakers should approach the global spyware market going forward.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

This week, we are joined by Martin Zugec, Technical Solutions Director from Bitdefender, sharing their work and findings on "EggStreme Malware: Unpacking a New APT Framework Targeting a Philippine Military Company. A newly identified Chinese APT group has been observed deploying a sophisticated, fileless malware framework called EggStreme against a Philippine military company. The multi-stage toolkit uses DLL sideloading and in-memory execution to evade detection, with its core backdoor, EggStremeAgent, enabling reconnaissance, lateral movement, keylogging, and data theft. Researchers note the campaign's persistence and stealth highlight professional, geopolitically motivated espionage activity linked to Chinese national interests.
