The latest episode of Nerd Out feels like one of the first with the return or Travis Moran to the pod. Travis came on to talk about the energy sector and his new work to help make sure that his critical infrastructure is positioned for the number of threats facing the industry. Travis goes into detail about his role and the role of security practitioners and some of the ways that they can be successful with training and exercises. Dave then asked Travis to put on one of his old hats and talked about the looming Roe v Wade decision and what it could for organizations from a protest and demonstration standpoint.

Turning to lighter fare, the two shared their love for the sport of lacrosse, Maryland’s dominance, the rigor of a season, and why they may or may not be fans of the Premier Lacrosse League.
