“Ladies and gentlemen, let’s talk about the Steptoe Cyberlaw Podcast. Yeah, you know the one. Hosted by the legendary Stewart Baker, it’s been like the digital world’s grumpy grandpa, telling us all about the cyber boogeymen under our beds while teaching us how to use a VPN as a night light.
Now,...”Read full review »

“This is the only halfway decent legal podcast around. If you end this show I’ll have nothing to listen to while washing my dishes! Don’t make me turn back to true crime or comedy shows…

In all seriousness, Stewart you put together an amazing show for five hundred episodes. I truly believe...”Read full review »

“As much as I disagree with some of Stewart’s political positions, there is no doubt that this is the most balanced and thorough analysis of data regulation available.
One of the few sources to call out the EU’s pipe-dream regulatory regime, and the UK’s idiocy in trying to control online...”Read full review »

“Stewart, Stewart,Stewart— lover of EU regulations. Usually has top notch guests. so please have fewer so they can speak more.
That title kills me, it’s too funny. A perfect balance of informative analysis and witty banter. Agree when guests are puzzled by Stewart’s rigid opinions but always...”Read full review »

“Been listening for years (at 1.25 speed because long-winded lawyers get paid by the hour) and this is really the best podcast to understand the real issues in cyber (technical or otherwise). I’ve been doing this long enough to not care so much about the hack du jour, but instead want to hear...”Read full review »

“The US Cyber Community is clearly still in need of theoretical consensus. Some theory-level content exists (persistence theory, Lucas Kello’s writings) but we need to continue the discussions to improve refinement, understanding and consensus. I guess I’m saying I DISAGREE - we DO need 60+ hours...”Read full review »

“Interesting discussion once in a while, if you can stand the unapologetic spooky spin and vibes of these US Intelligence/NatSec scene-affiliated 100-year old dudes, the worldviews and politics they represent etc.”

“But you wouldn’t know it by listening to this podcast. The host’s constant victim complex makes this podcast nearly impossible to listen to. Which is a shame because they have tremendous guests. Alas, don’t waste your time.”

“The host is the conservative uncle I wish I had. He’s thoughtful and considered in (most of) his opinions, and openly invites debate across a wide spectrum of beliefs. This show is as close as I’ve found to a meritocracy, and the host puts in the work to make sure he is working with facts and...”Read full review »

No complaints, although I wish that we would hear more about Stewart’s pets and their opinions, since Stewart refuses to represent them.(Some...”Read full review »

“The guests are usually top notch, but the host is tough to get used to—even as someone who attempts to defend a conservative point of view, he plays the victim too much and comes across as a obnoxiously whiny. See, e.g., the intro to ep. 12/7/2021.”

“A brilliant podcast. A bit of an acquired taste, though, because it took me quite a few episodes to get used to Stewart’s way of speaking (a couple too many “ums” and “ahs”). Hardly notice it by now, and the quality of the discussion is always top-notch. The views expressed are insightful and...”Read full review »

“Stewart is the model of civil a debater. You can tell who he agrees with and who he does not but the show does not degrade to the common form of pundits talking past each other. I doubt his mind is changed often, but respecting and comprehending his opponents points provides a rich conversation.”
