TSOTAL - Episode 2:Small Scale Sin

The second episode of TAL speaks directly to my background so I can’t judge it objectively. The bookends of the episode are interviews with hackers that parallel the beginning and end of my hacking (1989 to 1995) and the discussions from these young men are similar to the things I have felt and said. Non-hackers may be interested to hear the attitude of the hacker mind, but generally I think this episode may be too niche even for TAL. Sandwiched in the middle is an absurdist radio play of dubious quality and some excellent poetry from an African-American Jehovah’s Witness who came to recognize the contentious philosophy’s of his JW indoctrination and his participation in the Black Civil Rights movement.
