In 2015, Kevin asked Chris and his team of expert social engineers to hack him.  There was no restrictions - phishing, vishing, impersonation and a complete d0x were all on the table.  If haven't seen the outcome you can view in on the YouTube Video that already has over 2 million views.

We thought it would be a great idea to invite Kevin on the show and ask him a few questions:

• What gave you this crazy idea?
• Did you think you would come out the victor?
• How did you really feel as you realized you where pwned?
• How has it affected you after the hack?
• Anything you do differently now?
• And so much more....
