Episode 62: 2019 Think Like a Hacker Highlights

We've had quite a year with Think Like a Hacker, the podcast about WordPress, security and innovation. For this end of year episode, we take a look back at a few of our favorite interviews and news stories. We review conversations with Josepha Haden, Brandy Lawson, Jennifer Bourn, Matt Cromwell, and we look back at the Pipdig story that created a furor earlier this year.

Thank you to everyone who sat down with us over the first year of Think Like a Hacker, and thank you to our audience for listening, commenting, and helping Think Like a Hacker become what it is. We have big plans for 2020, and we hope you join us. Happy holidays to everyone celebrating, and we'll see you in 2020.

I am so happy and privileged to have been able to watch not every episode but, a few of them. Then I realized as I was given the gift of watching this last of the year video. I truly enjoyed this. Thank you all and have a very Merry Christmas.
