After a long delay in shows, we bring a new style of show to you. Raw and uncut, your hosts take on a topic and let run. How far will it get "Off the Rails." This episode, #5, we discuss a new Netflix show "The Great Hack" and what personal identifying information means to each person. What do you think is personal to you? What would you like kept private by companies about your online behavior? Can we stop the big data collection and control our own PII?

We apologize for the delay in recordings. Host Gina sits down with several SNHU classmates and NCL's very own KryptoKait for interviews and general fun.
