Ever fancied becoming a digital detective? 🕵️‍♀️ This week, we unpack everything you need to know about open-source intelligence (OSINT).

In Crash Course, you'll learn what OSINT is, and the power of publicly-available information. Kolina Koltai, an investigator at Bellingcat, joins us later in the show to explain how she uses OSINT to track down scammers.🔎

Before all of that, we dive into OpenClaw, the experimental, self-hosted AI agent that can browse the web and take actions on your behalf. It’s powerful, it’s exciting… and it raises big questions about permissions and security.

Happy New Year! 🎉✨ We’re kicking off 2026 with cybersecurity resolutions you’ll actually stick to — no cold plunges, no green juice cleanse, just a handful of tiny ten-minute wins that make a big difference to your privacy and security.
We’ve turned the best advice from last season’s guests into a simple, practical checklist. On this episode, you’ll learn the importance of freezing your credit, using passkeys, turning on MFA, tidying up your digital “junk drawer” (and moving the important stuff into 1Password), and adopting a “politely paranoid” protocol that helps you catch scams before they catch you. ✅🔐
