Looking for a link to episodes of Michael Bazzell's Privacy, Security & OSINT Show. Son of a bitch wiped the podcast clean off the internet.

He has explained his reason for this: >Many listeners are mad that the show archives were removed. I get it. Our host (Soundcloud) refused to allow us to renew our annual subscription, and they dropped us to the free tier. This prevents us from offering old episodes on their platform and is why you only see a single brief episode. Once the shows were removed from Soundcloud, all other podcast apps and services updated from this feed, eliminating their own links to the missing audio files. Yes, I know we could have found a new service, forwarded the feed, uploaded hundreds of gigabytes of wav files, and updated all of the podcast apps, but I did not see the point. Much like I prefer ephemeral messaging, I also kind of like the idea of expiring podcasts. They served a purpose at the time, but they were never meant to be a permanent reference. I hope some of you enjoyed them. Source: https://inteltechniques.com/blog/2023/11/20/my-irish-exit/ That being said, there is a torrent of all the episodes (except Episode 306) available. Episodes 1-305: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:3c21f5f3a8e4fe2319617c9df6548b02ecab20ac&dn=The%20Privacy%2c%20Security%20and%20OSINT%20Show%20-%20Ep%20001-305&tr=udp%3a%2f%2ftracker.openbittorrent.com%3a80&tr=udp%3a%2 %2ftracker.opentrackr.org%3a1337%2fannounce I do not know if anyone ended up downloading Episode 306. If someone has and has uploaded it, I have yet to find it. Perhaps it will be rewritten as a blog post in the future. In any case, if anyone can share it, that would be much appreciated.

>>22974 Thanks for the link, lainon. Every episode, even transcripts. Awesome. I knew there's always someone who has a backup. Michael is a hard man to find indeed. Dude goes off the grid and disappears like Jason Bourne. Fine, it's his thing, I get it. But then he deletes *all* episodes of his podcast off the internet, no warning whatsoever. Didn't reupload it somewhere else even though he absolutely could with his resources. That's a dick move in my book. I poked around on r****t, no one there seems to have a backup of 306 either. Anyway, thanks again for the torrent. I hope Bazzell will come back and resume the podcast in a few months just as suddenly as he disappeared.

Related question - since Michael has gotten out of the podcasting game, seemingly forever, where do we go next for OSINT news? You'd think someone else would start a new podcast, as there's obviously huge demand.

>>22985 There are some that have sprung up, and some that have been around for some time. > Podcasts The Lockdown with Ray Heffer: https://podcast.lockdown.media/ New podcast, advertised by someone in the Privacy Security OSINT subreddit. Darknet Diaries: https://darknetdiaries.com/ > A podcast about hackers, breaches, shadow government activity, hacktivism, cybercrime, and all the things that dwell on the hidden parts of the network. > OSINT Tools/Techniques Bendobrown's YouTube channel: https://invidious.lain.la/channel/UCW2WOgSiMr216a27KWG_aqg OSINT tutorials, focus on free/open tools. The SumSub YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCVraU9wuIQr8H1B0kcUD7Tw Vaguely related, the content strikes an okay balance between being beginner friendly and actually showing tools and techniques that are useful. The comment section of their videos helps fill in the gaps that the videos purposefully leave (redacting the names of tools used, mainly) to avoid legal trouble.

OP here. I'm a bit of a slowpoke, but let's try and keep this thread going. >>22988 That's a good selection, most of these are new to me. /r/osint and /r/privacy are also pretty good resources that are very active. I'm just dabbling, Michael Bazzell's podcast was what got me interested in it and got me a bit paranoid as well. The more i learn about privacy and OSINT, the more anxious i get about how exposed we all really are.

>>22988 Dark net diaries is pretty nice and interesting. I second this. I will check out the other stuff. I've come across VX underground, but I feel I'm not advanced enough to understand it. Hopefully I can soon

>>22974 What makes you think there was a e306? I have my podcast feed updated regularly and the last episodes I have are 304, 305, Intermission, My Irish Exit.

>>23021 The site has a page for 306 https://inteltechniques.com/blog/2023/09/22/the-privacy-security-osint-show-episode-306/ There is discussion about the missing episode on R*ddit https://www.reddit.com/r/PrivacySecurityOSINT/search/?q=Episode+306 >>22988 >>22985 DailyDarkWeb on Twitter also does updates on cyber crime and breaches. Granted it comes off as a glorified Telegram scraper without the links but it is a start.
