Like, that's not my thing. But everything that we had was amazing. And nobody in front of us spoke any English. Nobody around us spoke any English. They didn't have English menus. And you just point. And like, That looks good. You try to use Google Translate, but it's kind of, it's cheesy. You don't really want to do that. You just kind of go with your gut instinct on it.
So the same thing when I was in Japan, same thing when I was in Malaysia, like all these places, I just was like, that looks great. Do that. Or if it's visually in front of you, that looks amazing. I don't know what it is.
I think my favorite interaction with that was I was actually standing in a train station in Shinagawa in Tokyo. Granted, English is a little more prevalent in Tokyo. And the sushi chef did not speak English. And he was very irritated with me, clearly, because I wasn't moving it along. It's a fast moment there. And I was my last time being in Tokyo when I knew it was.
So I was sort of like laid back. a little bit more than I probably should have been. You know, taking my time ordering and not getting too excited. They didn't have any scallops, so I was kind of sad about that, but I pointed at, you know, I want the fatty salmon. And he was like, and he pointed at the wasabi. This is what we do. We just point at things.
He pointed at the wasabi, and I made the little teeny moment with my hands. Oh, no, no, no. This man dumped it all on me.
I was, every orifice was just steaming. But I remember thinking, and he giggled. You could tell that he was amused by what he did. And I was amused. But I also was amused because I was, you know.
Yeah. Yeah, but it gave me an opportunity to like cry out that I was leaving and I was really sad. And nobody would question it because I just had a really strong wasabi moment. Those are the kind of cultural things that I love. Or if someone wants to practice their English while they're serving you a drink or, you know, those kind of things and they want to know all these things.
And it's awesome. I love that connection and food and drinks are such a vehicle for that moment. And this is why I think that it's so important to protect it and why we need to continue as cybersecurity professionals to focus on that human factor of why we're doing it. It's not just because it's data, it's about human lives.
So before we jump all onto that, George, I will let you introduce yourself. I will say, everyone, that it's because of George that you have this podcast, because if it wasn't for his encouragement and sitting down and having lunch one day, thinking of food, that this podcast wouldn't have been born. So, take it away, George.
Get the percentage. I'll try to find the statistic and throw it into the show notes. But majority of soy, corn. Corn. Are all for animals. And it's kind of on a whole other side and not to get onto some kind of soapbox. It's kind of crazy to think about that we do that, though. Because naturally, I don't think pigs and cows and chickens and other things like that, beef, eat soy and corn. Yeah.
We kind of find that to be a strange thing. We're feeding animals things that they're not normally eating, but we don't have enough grassland or forage land for them anymore because of the way we live on this planet.
Correct. That would be crazy if they did. I mean, then you'd have an army.
I've never played with any of this information. I feel like somebody is probably going to make a meme off of that right there. Like just the army of like animals coming at us.
Are you tired of stuffy cybersecurity events with the same old steakhouse dinners and whiskey tastings? Yeah! Then buckle up. For the Cybermen's Battleground, Brought to you by the irreverent cybersecurity podcast, Bare Knuckles and Brass Tacks. On October 9th in Denver this year, we're mixing up the energy of a comedy roast with a freestyle rap battle.
I am number one, not number two. To create a cybersecurity event like no other.
Yeah, let's see how you do under pressure, oh! Vendors will have just minutes to pitch their products without using jargon in front of a rowdy practitioner audience.
This event is designed to break through BS and bust barriers to build real relationships. For sponsorship opportunities or to participate as a vendor, email bareknucklespod at gmail.com. Don't miss your chance to be part of this groundbreaking event that's bringing street energy to cybersecurity. Yeah, definitely. I completely understand.
I think that aha moment, George, is something that I consistently have in this industry because I am innately curious and talking to people who do this production work, they tell me stuff I learn something new every day. And I think it's amazing. And also that aha moment when I was doing my degree in environmental management, it was like the light bulb clicks.
every couple seconds like oh my goodness really we do it like that that's what that is oh no like and you just get kind of like super overwhelmed because you start to picture the whole ocean when we need to just start making cups of tea instead of boil the whole ocean if you will and it's a very daunting task because we didn't put cyber security in mind when we put this tech in
It wasn't even a thought. It was just, oh, I need to do this because we're going to get higher yields, better production, it will be better for everyone all around. And they didn't think, oh, nobody's going to hack food or tamper with food because we're good human beings. Everybody's a good human being. Nobody's going to mess with food.
