Introducing POLITICO Tech, an authoritative insider briefing on the politics and policy of technology. From crypto and the metaverse to cybersecurity and AI, we explore the who, what and how of policy shaping future industries. We’re kicking off with a series exploring darknet marketplaces, the virtual platforms that enable actors from all corners of the online world to traffic illicit goods. As malware and cybercrime attacks become increasingly frequent, regulators and law enforcement agencies work different angles to shut these platforms down, but new, often more unassailable marketplaces pop up.

The election analyst you had on Today did you no favors . He belongs on Fox News. He does not recognize data that is contrary to what he wants to say and minimizes that which appears to contradict it . It is the old trick of not having an opposing voice on while you are presenting . On Politico he does not . He is smooth and not bombastic but not truthful. He lies by omission and subtle distortion . My guess he is paid for and beholding to republican . If he is not he should be. You do not look like unbiased journalists with guys like this , especially when you do not present a counter point .

Laughing women
I just came here to listen to their opinions about the recession. All I came away with is 2 women laughing about the economy. They have no clue about this in any fundamental way. How could ppl pay $ for this?

Episode 582…Really?
I just listened to a (far too long) episode #582, wherein Eugene Daniels plays his violin for the Vice President. “Poor Kamala can’t get out of DC because those mean Republicans just won’t vote as Democrats.” How mean! By doing so, they’re denying her ability to start running for President (again). His reticence to admit that Harris might have higher aspirations is worth a giggle given that she’s already run (terribly). Doesn’t a producer listen to these before they’re aired? It’s unseemly and embarrassing for Daniels to spend an entire episode trying to get Americans to feel pity for Harris rather than the loathing she’s so justly earned thus far.

Ben Leonard vocal fry, dear god make it STOP!
I can’t listen to his tricking voice. Give him some mouth wash, have him see an ENT or tell him to lay off the affectation.

Dangerous reporting
Your reporting on Afghan women combat fighters just directly outed and endangered 3 women. One extremely specifically by going so far as telling where she now works. Though the story is indeed important and interesting, the way it was reported on was dangerous and negligent.

Slanted episode 386.
This last episode was such a slanted view I would expect from Fox News not politico.

Great news, but....
Great news source. But why must I listen to that sharp, high-pitched, ear piercing noise in the background? It is NOT music. It is annoying and distracting and takes away from the point - presenting good news. I can tolerate the “drip, droop, drip” noise as it causes no pain. Although I do not understand why it is there either. If one wants to listen to music, choose a different source. I tune in for NEWS, not music entertainment (or torture, as is the case here). I truly enjoy this news source, but if you cannot remove that painful sound I will no longer be able to listen. Thank you.

the BEST political podcast
out of allll the podcasts about politics / government / the world, POLITICO dispatch is the best one I listen to. & as a political science student, these things can get really repetitive really fast so it’s rare to find a podcast that I’m literally sitting on the edge of my seat for. It’s easily digestible, fun, very entertaining & has great hosts / speakers! Also great that it’s only 10-15 mins so you can listen to it on a short drive / in the shower, etc :)

Really enjoyed the Saudi Arabia / MBS episode
This is a really good podcast. They take a theme or topic that’s in the news lately (Biden & MBS, Nikki Haley’s conundrum) and go through a smart look at the various issues surrounding the topic.

Quick and dirty daily listen
In 15 min, Politico Dispatch crams factual, balanced, in-depth reporting into a daily briefing on one or two important stories of the day. I never miss it.

Help me understand
When I listen to ALL the political podcasts I can get my ears on I hear the upshot from either perspective but never both. I would be very grateful to hear deep informed reporting that focuses on what the “opposition” believes, why they believe that and why that is ill informed. I understand that this takes a long time to cover so comprehensively. I am just finding myself more and more frustrated that the “news” ends up sounding like “Trust me. This is something really bad.” And less like I am trusted to understand when given real information. Are you afraid if you explain why others think the way they do I will start to think like them instead of like you? I appreciate the information you give. I think you are intelligent, capable people. Please return the favor and give me MORE information to understand my neighbors. Thank you.

Great Podcast to Get Daily News
Host Jeremy Seagull does a great job providing news of current events with expert interviews and fantastic music choices. Seagull provides just enough humor to get a few chuckles during this time of distressing national and world news. I listen daily.

Found the Magic
Early on, I wrote a critical review because of a weird direction taken by going through state birds. In the past few weeks, the podcast has improved significantly and has become essential listening. Great improvement and found the magic that makes the podcast go.

I loved the birds
A creative way to inform and blend a unique detail about the states. Would have appreciated the total delegate count per state and cumulative total per candidate. Will keep tuning in.

First place
As a former speech team coach and judge, I am extremely particular about diction, pacing, and phrasing. Jeremy gets my “first” on all fronts.

Easy and quick way to stay informed!
This is quickly becoming my new favorite podcast. Don’t let the brevity fool you - these episodes are packed with relevant information and new perspectives, and fills a gap in the ‘dc politics’ podcast market. Hearing reporters’ reactions to breaking news in real time brings an authenticity to each episode, and humanizes the often harsh depiction of what it’s like to be a journalist in this country. Do yourself a favor and take 6-7 minutes out of your day to try this one out😊

Great behind the scene view
I love this podcast! Great behind the scenes view of what is going in politics. It is so interesting hearing from the Politico reporters on what is like following the candidates. Jeremy Siegel is super fun and informative. This will definitely be my “go to” podcast for politics.

Love the premise of pulling back the curtain. Love the pace and the different voices — especially Jeremy. He makes our current political maelstrom way more fun to try to unravel.

- The person behind the keyboardWant a personal insight into some of the world's most notorious cybercriminals through a neutral party? We interviewed a malware librarian to find out how the geopolitics surrounding the Russia-Ukraine war actually played out in the cybercriminal underground and the complex motivations of the people launching dangerous malware attacks against critical computing systems.0 comments0
- The slippery slope towards digital surveillanceWe examine the civil liberties implications of monitoring all cryptocurrency transactions. We look at the data privacy costs of reigning in the dark web.

- How Europeans police the darknetThis episode, we're setting our gaze on the other side of the Atlantic. Laurens Cerulus, our Politico colleague in Brussels, joins us to talk about how European diplomacy has evolved to take on the cross-borders challenge of investigating and prosecuting cybercrime. We talk about the Budapest Convention, an international legal framework governing cybercrime investigations. We take the pulse on how Europol really feels about coordinating with their American counterparts on darknet cybercrime investigations and tracking cryptocurrency flows.0 comments0
- The secret weapon for fighting cybercrime: CongressThere are numerous agencies in the federal government involved in investigating and taking down cybercriminals. But Congress passes regulations that can improve that fight.

Himes is of the few people who can tell elaborate on how crypto comes into play with lawmaking to combat cybercrime on the darknet.0 comments0
- The darknet prosecution puzzleWe kick off the second week of this limited series by taking you behind the scenes on the interdepartmental and intercontinental effort to successfully prosecute darknet cybercrimes. Across federal agencies, we find that a few digitally savvy investigators and prosecutors are leading the charge on revamping the law enforcement strategy for taking on cybercriminals. We talk to Zia Faruqui — a federal magistrate judge in DC and a former federal prosecutor for the Department of Justice in the DC Attorney General’s office — to highlight the out-of-the box thinking needed to bust cybercriminal enterprises. P.S. we also have a story to accompany the podcast! Read it here: Shadowboxing and geopolitics on the dark web0 comments0

- The intelligence blindspotFunded by the Secret Service, the National Computer Forensics Institute is tasked with training law enforcement officers across the country in the tools they need to combat crime in an increasingly digital world. In this episode of our series on darknet forums, we dig into the top-down information-sharing model between federal, state, and local law enforcement officials. We see how jurisdictional issues can slow investigations into an increasingly interconnected global cybercriminal network, and talk with experts from the NCFI about how they’re trying to improve the playbook agencies use to fight cybercrime in the twenty-first century.0 comments0
- A law enforcement window into the dark webIn the third episode of our series on darknet marketplaces, we’ll meet investigators who spent their careers examining these dark corners of the internet with a magnifying glass. We learn how to follow the money with the woman who pioneered what would eventually become the DEA’s Cyber Support Section. We talk to an ex-FBI agent who brought down global hacking collectives and darknet forums. N matter how advanced the technology gets, enterprising agents turn to traditional investigative techniques to get the job done. But it’s far from a perfect process.0 comments0
- The who's who of darknet forumsIn the second episode of our series on darknet marketplaces, we look at the personalities that helped build popular darknet forums and learn about the communication technologies and cryptocurrencies their members rely on. We also dig into how the geopolitics of the Russia-Ukraine war changed the nature of cooperation amongst cyber criminals on the dark net.0 comments0
