In this week's episode, Anna interviews three people from the Tezos community: Jacob Arluck (https://twitter.com/JacobArluck) (co-founders TQ (https://twitter.com/TQTezos) ), Marc Beunardeau and Marco Stronati (both from Nomadic Labs (https://twitter.com/LabosNomades)). They chat about the Tezos (https://twitter.com/tezos) origin story, the development of the PoS system, the governance of Tezos, and how they are incorporating zk proofs - and specifically Sapling from Zcash - into their system.
Here is some additional info related to the interview:

Thank you to this week's sponsor - Trail of Bits (https://www.trailofbits.com/).
Trail of Bits has partnered with Johns Hopkins University to supply vulnerability researchers with software that can produce ZK proofs of exploitability. This is part of a larger effort funded by DARPA, called SIEVE (https://www.darpa.mil/attachments/SIEVEProposersDaySlidesv4.pdf), to push forward the state of the art in zero-knowledge proofs.
