Recorded Live on YouTube: Thursday, September 11, 2025 – 9:00 PM CT

This week on InfoSec to Insanity, Evan Francen and Matt Goodacre dive headfirst into a problem that’s bigger than firewalls, frameworks, or fancy AI tools—our obsession with short-term thinking. Inspired by Evan’s latest blog post, We’re Addicted to Short-Term Thinking (And It’s Screwing Us All), we’ll break down how chasing the next quick win, quarterly number, or shiny product is wrecking cybersecurity, business, and even our personal lives.

Why do we keep doing what we know doesn’t work? Why do leaders mortgage long-term resilience for short-term gains? And most importantly—how do we break the cycle before it breaks us?

As always, expect the full InfoSec to Insanity treatment:
  • 🔥 WTF Happened This Week? – The biggest security stories, stripped of the nonsense.
  • 🤣 CISO Humor – Because if we don’t laugh, we’ll cry.
  • 🎤 No-BS conversation – The kind the industry doesn’t want you to hear.
💥 Join us live, bring your questions, and let’s talk about building something real instead of just patching over the cracks.
