Certificate Error
Very excited for this podcast, but every time my phone goes to look for new episodes, I receive an SSL certificate error. Looks like the Let's Encrypt very expired December of 2016 - pleas fix!!!
Wow, it's an eye opener
Entertaining, it keeps you interested and informed, and it will have you fearing (and rightfully so) for the whereabouts of your data.
GREAT!
So much fun! Way to go Veronica!
