Elliot and Dan got together to enshrine the week's hacks in podcast form, and to commiserate about their respective moms, each of whom recently fell victim to phishing attacks. It's not easy being ad hoc tech support sometimes, and as Elliot says, when someone is on the phone telling you that you've been hacked, he's the hacker. Moving on to the hacks, we took a look at a hacking roadmap for a cheap ham radio, felt the burn of AM broadcasts, and learned how to program old-school EPROMs on the cheap.

We talked about why having a smart TV in your house might not be so smart, especially for Windows users, and were properly shocked by just how bad wireless charging really is. Also, cheap wind turbines turn out to be terrible, barnacles might give a clue to the whereabouts of MH370, and infosec can really make use of cheap microcontrollers.
