Presented at
The Eleventh HOPE (2016),
July 22, 2016, 11 p.m.
(60 minutes)
Since 2008, Radio Statler has been broadcasting original content from HOPE to the rest of the world: interviews with speakers, extended Q&As, panels, and the occasional glimpse into everything that happens outside the talk rooms. The panel will take you through how and why Radio Statler! started, the obstacles faced running a temporary radio studio, and some of the war stories of the things that have gone terribly, terribly wrong along the way.

Bunni3Burn
as Bunni3burn
Bunni3burn is a homegrown Midwesterner hailing from a cornfield in Illinois, but ran away to a real city. She rarely sleeps, hardly leaves the house, and often forgets to eat. She enjoys pixel art, social engineering, and collecting bouncy balls. In kindergarten, Bunni3 played Ms. Pacman on a computer... and that's all it took. She fell in love with technology. Bunni3 has been around since the birth of Radio Statler at The Last Hope in 2008. She spent three years as the program director/producer. Now Bunni3 hangs around Radio Statler so she can take over the microphone after midnight.

Johnny Xmas
Johnny Xmas is a penetration tester for RedLegg, based in Chicago, and has been speaking internationally on the topics of information security, career advancement, and social engineering for nearly 15 years, both in and very far outside of the information security community. His infamous mixture of humor, raw sincerity, and honest love of people lead to hilarious - but at their core serious - discussions revolving around our inherent desire to get in our own way.

TechDarko
TechDarko is an information security engineer in San Francisco and technology polymath. Created in the lab of a mad scientist in New Jersey, he craves pizza, bagels, diners, and people with brains. He dabbles in emergency medicine, amateur radio, professional audio and lighting, electronics, broadcast radio, and helping nonprofits adopt new technology. A man of uncommon tastes, he is best bribed/thanked with good ciders and mead. You can often find him at HOPE by hurting yourself (seriously - don't interrupt his drinking time). TechDarko is a founding member of Radio Statler.
-
Nikgod
Nikgod is a reformed network engineer who occasionally pretends to know how radio works. Once he figured out how to hack AOL 2.0 parental controls, the Internet scarred him for life. Nikgod functions as the chief engineer of Radio Statler, coming up with solutions to the hard technical problems and running up a tab on his credit cards in the process.
-
Beaches
Beaches has been attending HOPE since HOPE Number Nine (2012). He has also been involved with Radio Statler since then.
-
Stoppay
Stoppay joined Radio Statler during The Next HOPE (2010) and has since managed the website. He works best under pressure and with little sleep, creating the site and content on the fly. He is known to do on-air interviews from time to time and plays the devil's advocate regardless of his opinion on the subject.
