It’s an episode of looking back this week, with both Bronwyn and Mark revisiting old stories. Bronwyn gives us an update on cult member and soon-to-be US Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, while Mark has been keeping his eye on the resurrection of the Global Flourishing group in Auckland. Katrina has been learning all about hacking and social engineering, and kept track of all the media stories over Christmas involving people falling prey to internet scams. And Mark gives everyone a heads up that Michael Connett, son of anti-fluoride activist Paul Connett, will be in New Zealand soon giving talks around the country.
