He features highly skilled professionals as his guests whom share invaluable insights stemming from real world experience.

Excellent Career Resource
Podcasts tend to specialize on very specific audiences and interests. In the case of The Security Student podcast, host Travis Lishok takes the listener across the wide spectrum of what is known as the "security industry." There are many security podcasts out there, however most deal with data, networks abd information security.
This isn't one of them. Instead, each episode has an interview of a seasoned security professional. This can range from consultants, coproate intelligence specialists, and even a USAF OSI Special Agent. The idea is to share insight to current and aspiring protection professionals. As a four-decade veteran of the trade, I can say the information provided here can be invaluable for anyone wanting to advance in-- or start a career as a protection professional.

New Favorite Security Podcast
So far I’m really enjoying the Security Student Podcast. Travis does a great job finding guests with diverse backgrounds so one can learn about the numerous security roles and learn from the guests. He also explores how the guests got into security and what they feel are best practices to be successful in the field. I’ve already added 3 or 4 books to my queue which were recommended from Travis or his guests. Can’t wait for the next episodes.
