A Political Discussion with Jeremiah Grossman

A Political Discussion with Jeremiah Grossman

Today's standalone episode of Unsupervised Learning is a political conversation with Jeremiah Grossman, who many of you will know as the founder of Whitehat Security, current CEO of BitDiscovery, Jujitsu Blackbelt, and all-around great individual.

We have remarkably different and similar views on politics, which we’ve been discussing in private for years, and we thought now was the perfect time to show that it’s possible to disagree with someone, respect them, and have a conversation about those disagreements in a positive and useful way.
