The Blast Radius
Cyber • Tech • What's Next
One story, one shift, and two or three things you can actually do about it. For the people who have to run the network on Monday — not the ones writing the press release.
Hosted by Quinn “Q” Vidal · Roughly 25 Minutes · Four Segments
Timely, editorial, and short on hype
Cybersecurity, changing tech, and industry recommendations — explicitly not just another AI show. Every episode takes something that actually happened, works out who it really hits, and gets to the part most coverage skips: what a small or mid-sized business is supposed to do on Monday morning.
The Blast
~10 min
One news story: what happened, who it hits, and what the headlines got wrong.
Radius Check
~10 min
A tech or regulatory shift, and what it actually means for SMBs and the security teams behind them.
The Fix
~5 min
Two or three concrete actions you can take this week. No homework you will never do.

Anonymized lessons from real engagements — the things that only show up once you are on site.
First one's in the chamber
The show is in production. Episode one is written; the rest is rig, record, and ship. New episodes land on YouTube first, and the full archive lives on the show's own site.
Episode 001
AI Ain't New, Y'all Just Late
The technology everyone discovered last year has been running your spam filter, your fraud alerts, and your autocomplete for decades. A short history of how we got here — and why “new” is the most expensive word in tech.
In productionThe podcast feed is being set up — Apple Podcasts and Spotify links follow once it is live.
The editorial half of the work
The Blast Radius is timely and editorial — news, analysis, and what the coverage missed. The instructional half is The Cyber Signal, a community where topics get taught properly rather than commented on. “The Fix” is the seam between them.
The Blast Radius
Timely. Editorial. What just happened, how far it reaches, and what to move first.

Most coverage tells you something exploded. The show tells you how far it reaches, whether you're standing in it, and what to move first.
