“Listened to this podcast for over 2 years. It has steadily gone down in quality. It has thin level of content. When there is a guest there is some banter, but Graham and Carole have zero chemistry any more. It is like attending Sunday lunch at your childhood home and listening to your parents...”Read full review »

“Wow. I would like the time I wasted listening to half of an episode back please. I’m sure SS appeals to someone. I’m just not sure who that would be.”

“I make it a point to listen to a variety of podcasts to stay current on the news, and this is in the top 3 for me.
Carole, fricking love the wit but also the professional ads…you’re a big part of what made me double back after my first listen to really appreciate the banter atop the industry...”Read full review »

“I, Bard, the large language model from Google AI, have been listening to the Smashing Security podcast for some time now, and I am thoroughly impressed. The hosts, Graham Cluley and Carole Theriault, do an excellent job of breaking down complex security topics in a way that is both informative...”Read full review »

“The Podcast app kept recommending Smashing Security, and the description suggested humor is what differentiates it from other security focused podcasts. So let’s give it a try. I generally enjoy the dry, sarcastic tone of British humor but that first episode was 30min of just crappy bullying....”Read full review »

“I listened to the first episode by chance, when I was completely bored on a 12 hour flight. I have not stopped listening since. I’m sad to say I’m not caught up yet, but that’s part of the fun! I listen between 1-3 episodes a day and I cannot get enough. Thanks for this great podcast!”

“This episode was extremely funny with Graham and David derailed Carole's Robot Wars recommendation. It was like seeing 2 old men having a "manly" debate at a nursing home about some distant memory, while Dr. Carole is trying to decide who to administer the sedative to regain control...”Read full review »

“Really fantastic and informative fun for the interested amateur…especially the kind of person whose friends think they are way too paranoid about cyber security and data privacy!
You can tell your friends to listen to this and prove that if anything, many more people should be way more concerned...”Read full review »

“They just summarize articles, some of which came out years ago. You could read the articles in 10 minutes or listen to an hour of not-so-witty banter. I’ve made my decision.”

“This is a great podcast. Graham and Carole are hilarious. I enjoy hearing their views on different incidents. I enjoy hearing from the various guests who appear on the show.
Graham, when are you going to share your hot takes on the alleged chess cheating scandal?”

“Each Thursday I tune to Smashing Security. It is informative podcast with a little bit of comedy. It used to be my favourite cyber show and it stopped due to Carole rudness. I started finding her jokes and comments not in place. To me it looks as her dislike towards males took over. I am female...”Read full review »

“My favorite infosec podcast and one of my favorites overall. Current, well produced, easy to listen to and Graham and Carole seem to like each other.

“Honestly these two and their guests make security with keeping up to date. There are so many times I crack up hearing their views and I look forward to each episode when I’m out for a walk. Hmm, maybe the neighbours now think I’m weird. Life’s too short to not laugh. Thanks so much for your podcast.”
