Awesome Podcast!

As a beginner wanting to learn about bug bounty, I really enjoyed this podcast. They dive deep into a variety of topics, talk with other experts, and are very well informed themselves. Definitely give it a listen, it’s worth your time!

Amazing Content!

I just found this podcast. I am a new bug bounty hunter.

In the morning, I’m a culinary chef, by night I’m a bug bounty hunter. I listen to this (just started 2 days ago) while I’m at work to get my hyped up and excited about after work.

Knowing these 2 guys literally pays their bills with bug bounties gives me hope I can too!

Thank you for the encouragement and the new tools you guys speak of! The methods are worth their weight in gold, and eager to start learning & doing more!

Informative
