How cyber-security prodigy Chris Doman beats hackers at their own game.

We meet Chris Doman, one of the world鈥檚 top civilian cyber defenders, and learn how he beats hackers at their own game. And we hear from Arnas Fedaravi膷ius, the Lithuanian actor who played the fugitive intelligence analyst Edward Snowden on Russian TV. Plus, the legacy of the real Edward Snowden.

Also, video game designer Navid Khonsari tells us the inspiration behind his yet to be released game about Iran鈥檚 1979 Islamic Revolution. We remember Ralph Baer, the serial inventor who became the 鈥榝ather of video games鈥. And we find out how a Buddhist shrine transformed a once-rough street corner in northern California.
