In this episode we head out to sea, following our previous episode which was up in the air, and move from Planes to Ships because IT is everywhere.
Join us as we learn what it takes to run cables and setup wifi on what was not so long ago, the most armored ship on the planet with every room essentially an isolated Faraday cage. Permanently berthed at the Port of Las Angeles in San Pedro CA, the USS Iowa serves as a museum that has hosted over 100,000 people to date, after an illustrious career as our Navy's flagship. From disguising cables to look authentic to installing magnetic phones for easy removal when Hollywood comes calling, Troy fascinates with his stories of overcoming these challenges and more.
