Episode 13 with Ben Demick

Author: Kyle & David August 14, 2020 Duration: 1:08:31
This week on Moscow Mules and NOP Slides, we have Ben Demick (@3pidemix and ben@epidemix.io). Ben wets his whistle with a Ponysaurus IPA out of a Washington Nationals baseball bat "glass". We talk baseball and breweries in Raleigh compared to the DC area. He talks about starting a new job at a startup as well as working on his PhD...AT THE SAME TIME! We discuss his favorite conference, Infiltrate, and why he enjoys attending each year (Miami has nothing to do with it...). We conclude with discussion around his passion for embedded device reverse engineering, his preferred tools of the trade (to include Binary Ninja), and learning different programming languages over the years.  David sips on a Bee-utiful Blonde from Grist House Craft Brewery out of a Hop Culture Pittsburgh themed glass. Kyle drinks an Everytime Only Once Smoothie Sour from Four Points Brewing out of a 4mer Legends Hop (Ken) Griffey Jr baseball themed glass. Thank you to Ben for being a guest and the great conversation! We hope you enjoy. Please don't forget to subscribe!

Hosts Kyle & David invite you to pull up a chair for Moscow Mules and NOP Slides, a conversation that lives at the unique intersection of craft and code. Each episode connects with a guest from the cyber security world, but the talk starts with what's in their glass-or mug, or bottle. That ritual beverage, whether it's a meticulously brewed coffee, a homemade kombucha, a classic cocktail, or a simple soda, becomes a gateway into the real stories behind their work and personal projects. This podcast is built on the idea that the best discussions about technology, hobbies, and leisure happen when people are simply being themselves, sharing the details of their craft alongside the details of their favorite drink. You'll hear unfiltered shop talk about security challenges and creative pursuits, all framed by the personal tastes and routines that define a professional's day. It’s a relaxed, often humorous look at the people behind the screens, exploring how they unwind, focus, and innovate. In every episode of this podcast, the common thread is a genuine curiosity about how people "wet their whistle" and where their minds go when they do.
