Great help!
Really enjoyed the top ten interviewer and seeing a little more of the personal side of Dave. How about adding quarterly and yearly top tens. 4/18/26 Please do more of the CyberWire-X episodes. It is good to hear about an exploit, but it is great for us cyber professional to get all the details, so we can understand if we could prevent the exploit. Thanks, Tom

30 Minute Advertisement
There’s an add then about 5 minutes of content where the host reads headlines without really talking about the story. And then a sponsored interview that takes up most of the episode and some more adds. No value to the listener. Just a lot of being advertised to.

Great Content
I like the content (and the music mixing) but the host has one of the most AI-generated-sounding voices and enunciation that I have ever heard. It’s not unpleasant, though.

Calm & informative
Somehow soothing. I cannot get any information with my problematic software. They inform.

It’s, meh; just feels like 50% leftist propaganda.
It’s, meh; just feels like 50% leftist propaganda. I wonder how much money N2K networks was getting from USAID.
