Washington and Tehran have a long and complicated history, with tensions that rise, fall and then rise again. Just this summer, we watched the U.S. and Israel strike Iran's nuclear infrastructure. This month, SpyCast is bringing you a series of special episodes on Iran, looking back and forward, to unveil the country's intelligence priorities, capabilities, and tactics. First in our series is Fariba Nawa. She's a journalist who shows us that if you want to learn about Iranian intelligence, one of the best places to look is Turkey. It may be a member of NATO, but it's also a country where Iranian dissidents flee because of their shared border. And as Tehran tries to lure certain Iranians back, Israel tries to recruit them. It's a complex, deadly game that Fariba has been bravely documenting through the podcast Lethal Dissent.

"Bonus Episode" Okay, so this was recorded before Ilan Rubin was named as the new drummer for the Foo Fighters, but this is a cool chat and if you aren't familiar with his work with Nine Inch Nails and Angels and Airwaves and The New Regime, this is a great catch-up on his career. He's a really nice guy and a great drummer and in case you missed this episode, we've got you.

Codenamed "Agent 202," Kendall Myers went undetected as a spy for Cuba for nearly 30 years. He worked at the State Department's Foreign Service Institute, secretly spying for Cuba out of an earnest love for the island, its people, and their leader Fidel Castro.  Myers was caught in 2009, after he retired. State Department Security Specialist and former Diplomatic Security Special Agent Bill Stowell was part of the team that worked the case. He shared new exclusive details with SpyCast, as Myers continues to serve a life sentence for espionage.  If you liked this episode, check out these links: Queen of Cuba with Peter J.

Hour 3 dives into President Trump's aggressive trade breakthroughs, including the landmark EU deal easing tariffs and boosting American exports, with expert insights from Fox's Jonathan Savage. The focus then shifts to the explosive revelations about the FBI and Clinton's role in weaponizing the Steele dossier, featuring a hard-hitting discussion with political analyst Dan Snell on deep state corruption and Ron Klain's recent testimony. Wrapping up, a Tennessee school district's controversial crackdown on absenteeism ignites parental outrage as doctor's notes lose validity and truancy referrals threaten families, raising questions about education policy and parental rights.

For the second installment of our mini summer series Diaspora on the Airwaves —originally produced by Ingrid Slaninková from RSI's Slovak section — we travel to Luxembourg to meet Peter Balla, a translator and interpreter who's also a former radio professional. Through the local community station Radio ARA, he brings Slovak and Czech music and culture to a diverse audience abroad. We also take a moment to mark World Nature Conservation Day — July 28th — and reflect on our connection with the planet in these times of mounting challenges. And finally, the latest episode of Slovak Sound Check will help you order coffee like a local — whether you take it with sugar, milk, or just a smile.

Transcript:Sv: Solen stod högt över den lilla skärgården som låg utspridd i havet.En: The sun hung high over the small skärgård scattered across the sea.Sv: Astrid satt på en sten, mobilen i handen, och blickade ut över den glittrande vattenytan.En: Astrid sat on a rock, phone in hand, gazing out over the shimmering water's surface.Sv: Det var sommar, och de gröna tallarna sträckte sig mot himlen i en dansande bris.En: It was summer, and the green pines stretched towards the sky in a dancing breeze.Sv: Hon älskade att vara här, omgiven av naturen och ensamheten.En: She loved being here,

videosamtalet igen.En: Astrid tried to start the video call again.Sv: "Oskar?"En: "Oskar?"Sv: sa hon, rakt in i mobilen.En: she said directly into the phone.Sv: Men det enda hon möttes av var suddiga bilder och ett knastrande ljud som påminde om gamla radiosändningar.En: But all she encountered were blurry images and a crackling sound reminiscent of old radio broadcasts.Sv: Frustrerad stängde hon av och började gå längs den steniga stigen.En: Frustrated, she turned it off and began walking along the rocky path.Sv: En mås svävade ovanför henne och verkade skratta åt hennes misslyckanden.En: A seagull hovered above her, seemingly mocking her failures.Sv: "Ni får gärna vara tysta ett tag," mumlade Astrid, och fortsatte vandringen.En: "You could be quiet for a while," Astrid muttered, continuing her walk.Sv: Hon upplevde att hennes lilla ö kanske inte uppskattade hennes samtalsbehov.En: She felt that her little island might not appreciate her need for conversation.Sv: Vid strandkanten lyssnade hon efter signal.En: At the water's edge, she listened for a signal.Sv: Ingenting.En: Nothing.Sv: Hon promenerade vidare, förbi en klippa där några sälar solade sig.En: She walked on, past a cliff where some seals were sunbathing.Sv: De sträckte på halsarna och betraktade henne med nyfikenhet, som om hon var dagens underhållning.En: They stretched their necks and watched her with curiosity, as if she were the day's entertainment.Sv: Efter flera försök lyckades hon äntligen hitta en plats.En: After several attempts, she finally found a spot.Sv: Signalen var stark.En: The signal was strong.Sv: "Oskar!En: "Oskar!Sv: Jag tror det fungerar nu!"En: I think it works now!"Sv: sa hon lyckligt.En: she said happily.Sv: De började prata om deras dagar, drömmar och framtidsplaner.En: They began to talk about their days, dreams, and future plans.Sv: Men precis när Astrid kände att de var sammanlänkade, började sälarna sjunga.En: But just when Astrid felt they were connected, the seals started to sing.Sv: Höga, glada läten fyllde luften och bröt deras kommunikation.En: Loud, joyful sounds filled the air and broke their communication.Sv: Oskar skrattade på andra sidan och Astrid kunde inte hjälpa att skratta med.En: Oskar laughed on the other end, and Astrid couldn't help but laugh along.Sv: "Förlåt, det verkar som om jag har konkurrens här," sa hon.En: "Sorry, it seems I have some competition here," she said.Sv: Efter många försök gav hon upp videosamtalen.En: After many attempts, she gave up on video calls.Sv: Istället satte hon sig ned med papper och penna.En: Instead, she sat down with paper and pen.Sv: Hon skrev till Oskar om ögonblicken i skärgården, om sälarna, måsarna och saknaden.En: She wrote to Oskar about the moments in the skärgård, about the seals, the gulls, and the longing.Sv: Varje bokstav representerade en del av hennes hjärta, och genast kändes avståndet mindre.En: Every letter represented a part of her heart, and suddenly the distance felt smaller.Sv: När breven började flyga mellan ön och staden, kände Astrid hur deras kärlek växte starkare.En: As the letters began to fly between the island and the city, Astrid felt their love grow stronger.Sv: Teknik må ha sina begränsningar, men deras ord band dem samman på ett sätt inget videosamtal kunde.En: Technology may have its limitations, but their words bound them together in a way no video call could.Sv: Till slut, insvept i den rosa kvällssolen med ljudet av vågorna i bakgrunden, insåg Astrid att ibland är de enklaste lösningarna de mest meningsfulla.En: In the end, wrapped in the pink evening sun with the sound of waves in the background, Astrid realized that sometimes the simplest solutions are the most meaningful.Sv: Hon hade lärt sig att omfamna spontaniteten hos skärgården och funnit kraften i det skrivna ordet.En: She had learned to embrace the spontaneity of the skärgård and found the power in the written word.Sv: Det var en kärlekshistoria i sin egen rätt, och det var precis vad de behövde.En: It was a love story in its own right, and it was just what they needed.

For the second installment of our mini summer series Diaspora on the Airwaves —originally produced by Ingrid Slaninková from RSI's Slovak section — we travel to Luxembourg to meet Peter Balla, a translator and interpreter who's also a former radio professional.

Imagine, you're sitting in a small radio station in the middle of the Chihuahuan Desert in Far West Texas. The air is dry and still. You've spent the day reporting on a long county commissioner's meeting. Maybe you've edited a story about the local herbarium and its keepers. Maybe you sat in the host chair for Morning Edition and All Things Considered, reporting the weather. Perhaps, on this day, you trundled your truck up a mountain to the Marfa Public Radio tower. It's quiet up there.Looking out from the top of this mountain, you can see everything. You stand for a moment, let it all sink in, visualize that signal sailing through the clear blue sky. Airwaves, airborne.And then it hits you. That signal is at risk. It could be snatched right out of the sky. Congress has just passed the Rescissions Act of 2025, H.R.4, eliminating all federal funding for public media. At Marfa Public Radio, this means one third of our budget is disappearing. For now, everything's still humming, machinery whirring, tower broadcasting.But it occurs to you: if people don't step up their financial support of this listener-funded station in this crucial moment for the future of public media — the gentle humming and whirring of the broadcast equipment could cease. It also occurs to you that people can quite easily donate at marfapublicradio.org/donate or by calling the station at 1-800-893-5787. As you await the listeners' calls - you begin to wonder, what is the Rescissions Act of 2025, really? In this episode, Senior Producer Zoe Kurland reads the Rescissions Act of 2025 and the senate and house votes that passed it. This episode of Marfa Public Radio Puts You To Sleep was written, produced, and hosted by Zoe Kurland. 

After A Commercial Break By Heather SvdbeckRead by Frank Gugumelli A woman had difficulty shopping lately at night at her local grocery store.

Spectrum is a vital asset to America's digital infrastructure, but who decides how this resource is distributed? As wireless demand accelerates, what is causing the United States to lag in spectrum policy and oversight? With the recent change in the Big Beautiful Bill to renew auction authority, how can we ensure that spectrum doesn't become a roadblock to future innovation?In this episode, Shane is joined by Harold Furchtgott-Roth, former commissioner of the Federal Communications Commission and currently a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute. They examine the historical reasons behind America's rise—and subsequent decline—in spectrum innovation and discuss the policy reforms necessary to restore American leadership in this vital area.

Originally aired live at 9:13 AM on July 2, 2025At exactly 9:13 AM on July 2, 2005, Trail 103.3 signed on the air for the very first time. Twenty years later—down to the minute—we cracked the mic together once again to mark that moment. This short, unscripted conversation between Robert Chase, Mike Smith, and Tommy Evans isn't just a celebration of our radio station's anniversary, It's a reflection on what Trail 103.3 has become, home for eclectic music, Missoula voices, and authentic community connection.Listen in as we go live on-air and share memories of the early days, laugh about Robert's 3:30 AM breakfast routine, recall how we each found our way to the station, and take a moment to thank everyone who's been part of the journey.. on the mic, behind the scenes, and most importantly, listening.Recorded live at what we thought was the exact moment Trail 103.3 first signed on—20 years to the minute @ 9:13 am...A sincere thank you to all the listeners who took the time to send in notes and stories about what the Trail has meant to them over the years—especially to Dave Cowan, the visionary programmer, engineer, GM, and on-air voice who built the Trail from an idea into a station. Dave reached out shortly after this segment aired to let us know we got just one little detail wrong: the Trail actually signed on at 9:13 PM, not AM. Oops!Fun fact: The very first song ever played on Trail 103.3 was Mind Games by John Lennon.~Join us at Caras Park on Thursday, July 24, when we celebrate The Trail's 20th Birthday with live music by the Josh Farmer Band as part of Downtown Tonight — food trucks, art vendors, local connection, and more. And don't forget our 20‑for‑20 Giveaway: 20 pairs of tickets to 20 local events spanning August 2025–August 2026.

When a Russian spy was arrested in Brazil in 2022, authorities were shocked to discover that he seemed to have a real birth certificate and authentic citizenship documents. The incident sparked a multi-year investigation that uncovered a network of Russian operatives living and working in Brazil – Their false identities supported by genuine documents. New York Times journalist Jane Bradley, who investigated the spy network, joined us to discuss the case as Brazilian law enforcement continues to piece together answers today.  If you liked this episode, check out these links: Ghost Stories: The Hunt for Russian Spies in the US | SpyCast "The Minions": Putin's Expendable Spies | SpyCast Curator's Corner: Kevin P.

Emerging alongside Joseph McCarthy's Red Scare in the 1950s was the Lavender Scare: Widespread panic and paranoia over the inclusion of gay personnel in the federal government. Their perceived dangers led to the terminations and forced resignations of thousands. Fast forward to 1988 – Tracey Ballard, who worked at the CIA, headed in to take a polygraph exam. Not sure what would happen next, she did something no one else ever had – She told her polygrapher, ‘I'm a lesbian.' Trace became the first openly gay CIA employee, and spent the next decade of her career fighting for inclusion, acceptance, and kindness within the agency. Her story highlights the critical importance of diversity, and the beauty in recognizing the things that make us different as well as the shared values that bring us all together. From all of us at the International Spy Museum, we are proud to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community this Pride month and beyond.  If you liked this episode, check out these links: Hack to the Future with Emily Crose Agents of Change: African American Professionals in the Intelligence Community Reflect The Sisterhood with Liza Mundy Prefer to watch your podcasts?

In the early 2000s, the CIA gave the FBI a huge tip: A team of Russian operatives had been living double lives in the United States. They were posing as professors, journalists, financial planners, real estate and travel agents, all while sending information back to Moscow. Now, 15 years after they were arrested, Alan Kohler, the former Assistant Director of the FBI's Counterintelligence Division, tells us what it was like to supervise the case which came to be known as Operation Ghost Stories.  In this episode, Alan mentions a number of different photos and videos from the Ghost Stories investigation. You can view them all here through the FBI's digital vault.  If you liked this episode, check out these links: "The Minions": Putin's Expendable Spies Spy Chat with Chris Costa | Guest: Alan E.

How do you catch an enemy's submarine … and then make it vanish? That's what the U.S. Navy's elusive Tenth Fleet planned, as it tracked down Germany's U-505 submarine. The mission came right before the Allies ran ashore on the beaches of Normandy in World War II. Historian Alexander Rose draws on long classified documents and intercepted transmissions to reveal the bold, salt-soaked heist. Alex's new book, Phantom Fleet: The Hunt for Nazi Submarine U-505 and World War II's Most Daring Heist  is available now.

EPISODE 4In recent years, creative, often music-focused pirate broadcasting has been thriving on shortwave. But these surreptitious broadcasters are up against a surprising enemy: Not the FCC, but a deep-pocketed group of finance bros that is trying to wrestle the airwaves away from the public, and use them for a money-making scheme completely antithetical to broadcasting. What do we lose when we give up our public airwaves? The Divided Dial was supported in part by a grant from the Fund for Investigative Journalism On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

May is OPSEC Awareness Month, and it's a critical time for each of us to sharpen our focus on operations security. Because whether you're on the flight line, in the lab, behind a desk, OPSEC is about protecting our mission, our people, and ultimately, the warfighters. Joining today is Richie Grau, NAVAIR Security Department Head, and Matt Crombie, NAWCAD Security Operations Division Head, and they are here to help us identify potential vulnerabilities, highlight OPSEC best practices, and explain why strong OPSEC is essential to NAVAIR's ability to deliver readiness and lethality across the fleet.

Most Americans would agree that the United States should be protected, but from whom … and how? Dr. Donell Harvin, the former Chief of Homeland Security and Intelligence for the District of Columbia, says the U.S. is taking its eye off the ball - focusing its large domestic intelligence apparatus in a direction that is politically expedient, but not in line with the most serious threats.

They were a spy cell like no other — operating from quiet British suburbs, hailing from Bulgaria, and working on behalf of Russia. Their handler dubbed them “The Minions,” and their plots stretched across Europe and spanned honeytraps, abductions, and murder. At the time of this recording, six have been convicted and await sentencing. To parse out the case, we spoke with Gordon Corera, a British author and co-host of The Rest is Classified podcast.

The United States and Ukraine have had a long, complicated history that has been defined by just as much partnership and collaboration as hesitation and disagreement. This dynamic is laid bare in the 7-part podcast series ‘Escalation,' produced by our partners at Goat Rodeo, with the national security publication Lawfare. In April 2025, The International Spy Museum hosted a panel discussion on the Washington-Kyiv relationship moderated by SpyCast host Sasha Ingber, and featuring Ukrainian journalist Anastasiia Lapatina, Lawfare's Managing Editor Tyler McBrien, Retired Brigadier General Kipling Kahler, and former National Security Council spokesperson Emily Horne.

Why does Vladimir Putin often say that the West is conspiring to weaken Russia? Historian James Crossland traces this narrative back to a British intelligence officer and a failed assassination attempt on Vladimir Lenin in 1918. The story is featured in his new book, Rogue Agent, from Secret Plots to Psychological Warfare, the Untold Story of Robert Bruce Lockhart. James takes us into Lockhart's psyche and lays out how a single moment in the dying days of Czarist Russia helped fuel a century of paranoia and rifts.

Government employees were dismissed with startling swiftness and sweeping in the midst of the Trump administration's relentless pursuit to pare down the federal workforce. The sheer number of fired personnel and the manner in which US officials let them go have led to concerns that disillusioned former employees may share what they know with foreign intelligence services, jeopardizing the very security they once sought to protect. Bill Evanina, former Director of Counterintelligence, discusses this fear and how foreign adversaries are exploiting the moment.

Nicholas Eftimiades' 34 year career in government spanned the CIA, State Department and the Defense Intelligence Agency. He's published three books that examine the structure, methodology and operations of China's intelligence services. This, he says, led a Chinese communist newspaper to declare him an enemy of the state in the ‘90s. Now, Nick is retired, and he's been building an unusual database tracking some 900 cases of Chinese espionage.
