Bonus Episode #5 - A Lotto Story

Comments

Great episode, wow!

BrooklynGuy1898

So, I really enjoy your voice, however, the world knows that Demoines is pronounced without the ‚s‘ . . . hurt my ears a bit, but otherwise, great episode :-)

kalmeida3018

This reminded me of the McDonald’s Monopoly scam. Great episode!

Ethan Teng

This was an incredible episode!

Justė Gerein

I always thought it was more of a three-parter a la Jack Rhee Syder

Cameron Bigger

Great episode!

Tom Charnock

or as I've always heard it, Jackery Cider ;)

Joel Johnson

Thanks for doing all these "stories from the dark side of the internet." this is my favorite podcast for so many reasons. The music, the unique episode artwork, your tempo, tone, cadence is just perfect. and i know my name probably goes on a list with every episode i stream but i just had to give a little support to Darknet Diaries. PS Your name will always be Jackrhy Sider. sorry.

Brian

Great episode. Another person that got caught by making a small mistake.

great episode

SteakBurger

Wow, that was an amazing amount of obfuscation! Way more complex than my first guess that he was going to manipulate the atmospheric conditions in the room to control the seed. 😆

Mark Parris

Maybe I'm just thick, but how in the heck do I get the bonus ep's in Pocket Casts? Edit: n/m, found it now. Copying the RSS feed link from the Patreon app didn't work, but copying it on the desktop and sending that link to Pocket Casts worked just fine.

Patrik A

Wow. Amazing bonus.

Max S.

Jee and to think that if that Canadian guy didn't give false information on what was dressed in he'd got away with it. Great episode thanks for that pal

paddy brennan

Amazing story! Thanks for the link to the Defcon talk too!

Max Houser

I’ve listened to every episode you’ve ever made, Jack. Keep up the good work and I’m glad I can support you!

Nate M.

I enjoy your podcast so much. Keep up the good work.

Karanjit Singh

That was fun!
