I explore the remarkable journey of a CIA operations officer who transitioned from a quiet childhood in California to the thrilling world of espionage. What began as a joke application to the CIA turned into a life-changing opportunity. The episode delves into her rigorous training, including paramilitary courses that prepared her for the realities of fieldwork and thrilling stories from her time in Moscow during the late 1980s. Susan also gives tradecraft insights on surveillance techniques and the unique challenges faced by women in intelligence roles during that era.

Paul D. Miller joins the show to argue that international law is a set of norms, not a moral court. A former CIA analyst and Army intelligence officer now at Georgetown, Miller explains why post-conflict reconciliation only works when locals accept it, why Israel faces a unique double standard, and how democracies navigate war without becoming what they're accused of being. We discuss Rwanda, denazification, Kosovo, Gaza, civilian casualty ratios, and why just war theory still matters after the shooting stops. Plus, the arrest of Don Lemon—why it's less a First Amendment crisis than another example of selective punishment, pretextual enforcement, and politics disguised as law.

Nevada's Area 51 has been the subject of speculation and rumors on crashed UFOs, secret underground facilities, and reverse-engineering alien technology for decades. While the CIA has confirmed the base was used to test experimental aircraft such as the U-2 spy plane, many believe that explanation may only scratch the surface of what really goes on behind its guarded borders. Recently, new activity has reignited the mystery. Thermal footage captured near Groom Lake shows a triangular aircraft unlike known stealth platforms alongside increased classified flight traffic into the base. That intrigue deepened after a reported crash outside Area 51 last September, followed by an unusually delayed press release, heavy security, and evidence suggesting the site may have been altered afterward. Was it just a military drone accident —or another carefully managed cover story? As always with Area 51, the unanswered questions only seem to multiply. Tonight, Jeremy Scott sits in for Clyde Lewis and talks with researchers Donald Schmitt and Joerg Arnu, about "Area 51: The Secrets That It Keeps"

Hosted by Tara, this episode covers what may become one of the most consequential political revelations in modern U.S. history. Newly declassified documents—revealed following a bombshell announcement by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard—confirm that the Russia collusion narrative was a complete fabrication, orchestrated by Obama-era intelligence leadership and knowingly pushed despite zero evidence. Tara breaks down reporting from Michael Schellenberger and Matt Taibbi, detailing how the CIA, under John Brennan, targeted 26 Trump associates, funneled staged intelligence through foreign actors, and then used the FBI to legitimize a hoax that consumed nearly two-thirds of legacy media coverage for years

This episode covers a historic political reckoning and a rapidly shifting global landscape. From newly revealed intelligence documents alleging the Russia collusion narrative was fabricated at the highest levels, to the ongoing purge of federal agencies, to Trump's aggressive geopolitical moves against Iran, Venezuela, Cuba, and China — this is a deep dive into power, deception, and consequences. Plus, why immigration policy is really about electoral math, how global leaders are now openly admitting it, and a quick reality check on cold weather survival as winter bites back. ❄️ ⏱️ Episode Highlights / Chapters

“All fake. One hundred percent unreal.” In this explosive episode, new documents released by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard are front and center—detailing how the Russia collusion narrative was allegedly manufactured at the highest levels of government

A US carrier group is racing toward Iran. Trump's statements are swinging between threats and vague offers of a nuclear deal. Inside Tehran, unrest is spreading, and the regime's most powerful security institutions are showing strain. But how much do Western intelligence services really know about what comes next, and how dangerous is this moment?In this episode of The Fourcast, Paul McNamara talks to David McCloskey, a former CIA analyst who spent years covering Syria, Iraq and Iran from inside the Agency. He explains why Trump is harder to predict than the regimes analysts usually study, how Israel has been able to penetrate Iran's security apparatus, and what a US strike package would actually look like.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we focus on a pivotal hearing addressing veterans' job opportunities in the emerging technology sector, particularly in artificial intelligence. Congressman Abe Hamadeh from Arizona, a veteran himself, joins us to discuss his groundbreaking legislation, the Improving Emerging Tech Opportunities for Veterans Act. This initiative aims to connect highly skilled veterans with high-tech jobs, especially as Arizona positions itself as a hub for semiconductor manufacturing and AI innovation.Congressman Hamadeh emphasizes the importance of leveraging the unique skills and discipline of veterans to fill workforce gaps in the tech industry, particularly as foreign investments flood into the U.S. He highlights partnerships with companies like TSMC that are committed to veteran outreach and hiring. This legislation represents a significant step toward ensuring that American veterans are not only honored but also gainfully employed in the rapidly evolving tech landscape.We also delve into the recent developments surrounding President Trump's negotiations regarding Greenland and NATO. The Congressman shares insights on the strategic importance of Greenland for U.S. military operations and how these discussions could bolster national security while countering adversarial influences in the Arctic. With a focus on protecting Western civilization, Hamade reflects on the potential benefits of these agreements for both the U.S. and its allies.Next, we dive deep into President Trump's recent signing of the Charter for the Board of Peace at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. Joining us is Claire Lopez, a former CIA operations officer and national security expert, who provides valuable insights on the implications of this new charter for global order and U.S. strategy in the Arctic. Lopez discusses the enhanced U.S. control over strategic sites in Greenland and the significance of these developments in countering the assertive actions of China and Russia in the region.We also explore the broader geopolitical landscape, including the situation in Venezuela. Lopez highlights how the country has become a focal point for adversaries such as Iran and China, and how Trump's foreign policy aims to assert U.S. primacy in the Western Hemisphere. She addresses the ongoing challenges posed by the Maduro regime and the presence of foreign influence in Venezuela, emphasizing the need for a robust U.S. response.Finally, Tina Desovich, co-founder of Moms for Liberty, shares the importance of instilling true American history in our children. Tina emphasizes the importance of parents educating their children about the nation's founding principles and the real stories behind key historical figures. She warns about the potential pitfalls of historical interpretation in museums and educational settings, urging parents to engage directly with original documents to ensure their children grasp the true essence of American history.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First up—according to new reporting, the CIA is launching a new operation inside post-regime Venezuela, putting U.S. intelligence at the center of Washington's early efforts on the ground as the country transitions following the collapse of Nicolás Maduro's regime.  Later in the show—the European Union has officially designated Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organization in response to Tehran's violent crackdown on nationwide protests, a move that places the IRGC on par with groups like al-Qaida and ISIS and signals a hardening of European policy toward Iran.  To listen to the show ad-free, become a premium member of The President's Daily Brief by visiting https://PDBPremium.com.

For most Americans, and certainly for baby boomers, we remember the first major exposé before Congress during the Church Committee hearings, when William Colby, the head of the CIA admitted under oath that the agency had its tentacles in much of the American mainstream media and promulgated bogus stories for citizens to consume.  On the second half of the program Gary pays tribute to Dr. Peter Duesberg who is a subject in the Gary Null documentary 'Aids the Untold Story'  

One of the big surprises of Donald Trump's second term has been the change in his approach to China. His first term marked the start of what seemed to be a hard-line consensus in Washington. But in the past year, the drivers of Trump's policy have been much harder to decipher—including for Chinese policymakers. Beijing was prepared to respond forcefully to tough U.S. measures, as it has, most prominently, by wielding its control over rare-earth metals. Yet it has also seen new opportunities to gain ground in its bid for global leadership, as Trump's focus careens from Latin America to the Middle East to Greenland. Jonathan Czin has spent his career decoding the power struggles and ideological debates inside the halls of power in Beijing. Now at the Brookings Institution, Czin long served as a top China analyst at the CIA before becoming director for China at the National Security Council. He sees Beijing's year of aggressive diplomacy as a success, but with a lot of uncertainty about the months ahead. Xi Jinping faces a series of summits with Trump even as he grapples with economic challenges at home and a military that, if recent purges are any indication, is still not to his liking. Dan Kurtz-Phelan spoke with Czin about China's approach to Trump 2.0; what to make of the military purges and other developments in Beijing; and the enduring nature of U.S.-Chinese rivalry, whatever the surprises in the short term.

According to our favorite literary reviewer, Bethanne Patrick, these are the seven books that “will really matter” in 2026:* Land by Maggie O'Farrell — The Hamnet author returns with a luminous novel set in 1865 Ireland, two decades after the Great Famine. A father and son survey their region for the British—mapping the land in English when their hearts speak Gaelic. O'Farrell explores post-famine trauma, colonialism, and the mysterious pull of place, weaving in neolithic history and Irish wolfhounds that feel almost magical. As some characters emigrate to the New World, the novel asks what it means when land becomes identity, when a nation is defined not by commerce but by the places that feed our souls.* The Fire Agent by David Baerwald — A stunning debut from the Grammy-winning songwriter behind Sheryl Crow's Tuesday Night Music Club. This 600-page thriller is based on Baerwald's own family history: his grandfather Ernst was sent to Tokyo as the purported sales director for IG Farben, the company complicit in the Holocaust. The novel spans continents and decades, from a 1920s throuple to Wild Bill Donovan's OSS becoming the CIA, complete with family photographs. Patrick calls it “a knockout”—not a potboiler, but a wild, scary ride where almost everything actually happened.* A Tender Age by Chang-rae Lee — The Pulitzer finalist delivers what his publisher calls “a spellbinding exploration of American masculinity and family dynamics.” Through an unforgettable Asian-American protagonist, Lee examines what it means to grow up with “double consciousness”—always aware of how the dominant culture perceives you, your family, your chances. Patrick places him alongside Jesmyn Ward as one of America's finest novelists.* Witness and Respair by Jesmyn Ward — The two-time National Book Award winner collects her nonfiction, including the devastating Vanity Fair essay about her husband's death from COVID at 33. “Respair” is Ward's resurrection of an archaic word: the repair that comes after despair. These crystalline essays on the American South, racism, and grief reveal the deep thought behind her remarkable fiction. Patrick sees it as essential reading for 2026—a creative grappling with everything America must face.* Backtalker by Kimberlé Crenshaw — A memoir from the architect of “intersectionality” and “critical race theory,” now under attack in the current administration. Structured in three parts—raising a back talker, becoming a back talker, being a back talker—it begins with young Kimberlé desperate to play Thornrose in a classroom fairy tale, passed over week after week. When she's finally chosen on the last day and the bell rings, her mother marches back to school and demands justice. That's where Crenshaw learned to speak truth to power.* American Struggle edited by Jon Meacham — For the 250th anniversary, the historian assembles primary documents proving that struggle is constant and non-linear in American history. Abolitionists spoke out in the nineteenth century; civil rights activists had to speak out again in the twentieth. From Abigail Adams's “remember the ladies” letter to Fannie Lou Hamer's testimony at the 1964 Democratic Convention, Meacham—no fan of the current administration—shows that the fight never stays won. Patrick sees it as essential for librarians, teachers, and younger readers.* John of John by Douglas Stuart — Patrick's sneaky seventh pick (I originally only allowed her six). The Booker Prize-winning author of Shuggie Bain returns to Scotland, this time the Isle of Harris, where men weave Harris Tweed on licensed looms. John McLeod is a fire-and-brimstone church elder; his son Cal returns from Glasgow art college with dyed hair and queer identity. What looks like prodigal son territory becomes something richer—father and son have more in common than either knows. Stuart captures a community tied to sheep farming and craft practices that feel centuries old, even as modernity crashes against the shore.Enjoy!Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

President John F. Kennedy saw his mistress Mary Pinchot Meyer as an equal during their lives. But there was one thing neither realized they'd have in common: their suspicious deaths. Police said Mary was murdered in a robbery gone awry. But some believe her death was an orchestrated hit: a move in the War on Drugs, or a way to hide her evidence that the CIA killed JFK.

In the 1970s, Senator Frank Church, a Democrat from Idaho, stuck his neck out–unlike members of Congress today–to take on the real deep state–the FBI and CIA carrying out LSD mind-control experiments on Americans, terrorizing activists, and committing assassinations with the mafia, including against witnesses. The Church Committee Report, based on real Congressional investigations, not just performative show trials, shows us how to confront and dismantle the lawless, mass-murdering MAGA regime.  Historians Matthew Guariglia, a senior policy analyst at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and Brian Hochman, the Hubert J. Cloke Endowed Director of the American Studies Program at Georgetown University, are out with the definitive account, The Church Committee Report: Revelations from the Bombshell 1970s Investigation into the National Security State. They walk us through the decades of U.S. presidents of both major parties allowing a surveillance state to expand, running dangerous operations against the American people. The most chilling legacy is not the cartoonish villainy of poison darts and imperial assassinations, but the insidious cruelty of undermining activists. So pay attention. Don't let anyone–even a well-meaning ally–weaponize purity tests to gatekeep the Fourth American Revolution. Stopping the MAGA threat requires all of us building together in coalition. Based on the Church Committee's own findings, we know exactly what tools the FBI and CIA use to dismantle movements. They have very specific, terrifyingly effective strategies to divide and conquer We the People.  Here is what they do when they want to destroy a movement from the inside out: Snitch Jacketing: This is psychological warfare. They plant false information–maybe they leave a map or a weapon in an activist's car–specifically to make you think your friend is a police informant. They leverage paranoia to make us eat our own. Fabricated Dissent: They create fake zines, fake newsletters, and fake correspondence to manufacture feuds between groups. They want the anti-war movement fighting the labor movement so neither fights the state. The "Friendly" Infiltrator: Watch out for the guy who shows up out of nowhere with coffee and too many questions. They send plainclothes agents into our resilience communities to map our networks and identify leaders and how they operate. Entrapment: They find an "easy mark" in a group, push them toward violence, then arrest everyone for a plot the FBI invented. They manufacture terrorism. The "Suicide" Strategy: J. Edgar Hoover's FBI sent a letter to Martin Luther King Jr., threatening to expose his private life and pressuring him to kill himself. They try to break you psychologically so that you back down and disappear. According to historians Guariglia and Hochman, activists under siege were aware of the threats long before the Church Committee exposed them, and developed resilience strategies we can learn from today:  Reject the "All-Powerful" Myth: Don't give a lawless regime a bigger shadow than it actually has–that is what they want: to live inside your head. When you start believing the government is an all-knowing, all-powerful shadow monster, you are doing their work for them. Paranoia is a tool of the oppressor.  Build a Culture of Care: The only way snitch-jacketing works is if we don't know each other. Build deep, resilient relationships. When we take care of each other, their wedges don't work. Sousveillance (Watch from Below): Do not rely on police body cams; those tapes have a magical habit of being turned off when they're needed. Film everything. Control the narrative with your own evidence, eyes, and ears. Divest from Big Tech: Google, Amazon, and Apple are regime collaborators. We need to build our own infrastructure from high-tech mesh networks to low-tech zines. If you rely on the master's tools, they will shut you down, as we're seeing now with TikTok's mass-censorship under the new owners–MAGA donors, the Ellisons. Get Educated: Practice tech hygiene. Go to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and use their Surveillance Self-Defense guide. Learn how to encrypt, what to carry, and how to stay safe. We're fighting a generational struggle, but we outnumber them. As Andrea's film Mr. Jones reminds us: The truth cannot be killed. Stay safe, vigilant, and united–that is how we win.

There is an odd vibe flowing through the conservative movement at events like America Fest, the annual strokefest produced by Turning Point USA. The presentation is a combination of professional wrestling mixed with a religious revival at a Megachurch. It is a very well-produced version of Conservatism, delivered by recognizable, but recently augmented, faces who do not pose any real threat to the system.Real questions are being asked about the background of Erika Kirk. Her ties to a Romanian children's charity, trafficking operations to the UK & Israel via American military bases, and recently unearthed CIA training videos on EMPs featuring a young Erika Frantzve.

In this Listener Q&A episode of The Wright Report, Bryan answers sharp questions about who is really driving the Minneapolis protests, why some activists openly admit they do not care about criminal backgrounds, and how ideology has turned tragedy into something resembling a cult movement. He then tackles major concerns about ICE body cameras, the risks and realities of Kill Switch technology in modern cars, and President Trump's lawsuit against JPMorgan over alleged political de-banking. Bryan also addresses viral claims involving Bill Gates, meat consumption, parasites, and tick-borne allergies, separating evidence from speculation.

The son of a Manhattan Project physicist, he has advised President George W. Bush on counter-terrorism, freed innocent people from prison using brain fingerprinting technology, and has worked with the FBI and CIA worldwide. Now he's devoted his life to answering one question: Can we scientifically prove that consciousness creates reality?The answer changed everything he thought he knew about human potential.In this episode, Dr. Larry shares the laboratory experiments that proved humans can shift "impossible" probability distributions using consciousness alone—and how you can apply these same principles to create miraculous outcomes in your own life.What You'll Discover:Why quantum physics proves your "impossible" dreams are actually scientifically possibleThe near-death experience that revealed the secret mechanics of manifestationWhat "murmur moments" are and how your brain opens for transformation during triggersThe counterintuitive reason why trying harder keeps you stuck on the surfaceHow to use the "Alien Robot Report" to defuse any emotional trigger in secondsThe three questions that instantly reveal whether a situation actually threatens youWhy clarity of feeling matters more than specificity of outcome when manifestingThe simple daily practice Dr. Larry uses to stay grounded amid chaos and dangerYour Invitation:You already possess the same conscious unified field that creates galaxies. The question isn't whether you can create miracles—it's whether you'll learn how.Know yourself. Be yourself. Love yourself.Science says you're more powerful than you've ever imagined.

What if your entire life was a lie, but also you're really good at parkour? Salt is a movie four years ahead of its time and about eleven different cuts ahead of Greg and Joe truly understanding it. They discuss how this spy thriller delivers John Wick-level action sequences but with a plot that requires an advanced degree in, I don't know, something. Is Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) a loyal CIA agent? A Russian sleeper agent? Both? Neither? The answer is yes—and also no.Join them as they debate the critical clues in this film, like how a half-eaten sandwich and an overturned chair are obvious signs of kidnapping, why a German arachnologist is the perfect husband for a spy, and how Angelina Jolie maintains perfect hair after dyeing it black in a sink. They marvel at the 17-minute escape sequence, attempt to understand Liev Schreiber's motivations, and confirm that spider venom is a totally normal thing to just have on hand.As with every episode, this is the love letter that needed to happen about this movie.

In a time when personal safety is increasingly top of mind, author and former CIA officer and security expert Tim Beard launches LOOK TWICE, a groundbreaking new series of three books designed to give readers the practical tools and mindset to stay alert, aware and protected in their everyday lives. Volume I, available January 27, 2026; Stillwater Books, lays the foundation with Tim's signature “Look Twice Mindset” — a simple yet powerful approach to recognizing risks before they become threats. In Tim's timely new books, he introduces the essential security concepts that anchor the entire series. With clear, relatable guidance, he shows readers how to stay Safe at Home and at Work, from identifying vulnerabilities to mastering basic precautions that greatly reduce risk. The book also offers step-by-step advice for navigating ordinary outings — what Tim calls Out in Town — including running errands, using ATMs and moving through public spaces confidently and safely.Recognizing that transportation plays a major role in many safety incidents, Tim devotes a full section to Transportation Awareness. Readers will learn how to stay secure while driving, riding subways, managing encounters with road rage, and more. Each chapter blends real-world insight with actionable strategies, empowering readers to make safer decisions in every environment.“Safety isn't about fear — it's about preparation,” says Tim. “My goal with the LOOK TWICE series is to help people build everyday habits that increase awareness, protect their families and give them peace of mind.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, Kristi Noem, J.D. Vance, and the entire MAGA Klan murdered Alex Pretti. They sent Bovino into early retirement, but he must be arrested, along with his agents who shot 10 bullets into Pretti, an ICU nurse for the VA who spent his life helping others. Demand the impeachment of President Stephen Miller: force Trump to throw him under the bus, too. It's a start to the demands for justice.  To honor Pretti and our work ahead, find time to grieve. We cannot power through this collective rage and anxiety without releasing it. Even the strong need to cry in the shower. If we don't sit with our grief, it will force you to. Grieving is an act of resistance. It changes you, and it plants the seeds of justice that we will use to build a better world together. To the people of Minnesota, you have created an American Maidan, standing strong against tyranny. Even Ukrainians, freezing in the cold from Russia bombing their electrical grids, see you, and are calling your movement a Maidan. To grow a real resistance, we share a message recorded by Annie, a Gaslit Nation listener in Minneapolis.  Our victory is guaranteed because our enemies are cowards who hide behind masks. America has defeated the Klan before. We must fight with urgency in a generational struggle. Join the General Strike this Friday January 31st. Divest from the corporations funding the MAGA regime–look to Cut Off the Spigot to learn how. And most importantly, stand by each other. As the people of Minnesota showed us, singing "Stand by Me" in the face of fascism: we win through our culture of care. Tonight's episode will run as usual. It's an examination on how the Church Committee Report, which exposed the mass-murdering FBI and CIA, shows us how to overcome our mass-murdering state today.  Join our community of listeners and get bonus shows, ad free listening, group chats with other listeners, ways to shape the show, invites to exclusive events like our Monday political salons at 4pm ET over Zoom, and more!

Brian Beckner and Ed Daly are back for Episode 609, and it's a full buffet of cultural nonsense, sports absurdity, internet weirdos, and deeply unnecessary celebrity behavior.

Former CIA agent and Boston native Ralph Mariani shares the real-life thriller account of the 1975 murder of his boss, Richard Welch, the then-CIA station chief in Athens, and the twenty-seven-year investigation that was only solved when two grandmas came forward when a new description of the culprits was circulated.On the night of December 23, 1975, CIA Station Chief Dick Welch and his family attended a Christmas party at the American Ambassador's residence. Upon returning home, Dick exited the car to open the main gate. A man appeared amid the darkness and shot him dead. Five days after the attack, a terrorist group called “Revolutionary Organization 17 November” claimed responsibility for Dick's death. It wasn't until 2003—almost 28 years later— after 17 November had killed 23 people as a bomb exploded in the hands of Savvas Xiros, one of the organization's most ruthless killers, that the people responsible for the murder of Dick Welch and several other foreign diplomats were caught. Because of the  steadfast efforts of Ralph Mariani, other colleagues and members of Welch's family, together with fears about poor publicity ahead of the 2004 Olympics did Greek authorities finally take action against the group, and bring them to justice. The question Mariani helps answer is: Why did it take so long? And why did the Greek government not accept US help in solving the crime?   Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

This week, Down to Watch has got so many sneaky secrets... Dan and Raul caught a couple of pilots about people being really sneaky for very different reasons. On Steal, Sophie Turner has to contend with a gang of smartly dressed and armed thieves who take over the 27th floor financial organization she works for. After pushing through the harrowing ordeal and taking a break from her debrief with the police, she sits in a bathroom stall for a moment and gives away to the audience that she was in on the whole thing! Gasp! On the other side of the pod we have Ponies, a show about a couple of widows of CIA agents during the cold war. In order to stay in Moscow and figure out what happened to their mates, Emilia Clarke and costar must pretend to be secretaries while carrying out CIA stuff despite their lack of training. Does this make sense in the real world? Probably not, but the world is cool and the ladies are charming. Will either of these shows be a secretive success or be smuggled off to cancellation by the powers that be? Listen to this pod to find out, then destroy it immediately!

La guerra ya no se anuncia.No siempre explota.Y muchas veces ni siquiera se ve.En este episodio exploramos cómo el conflicto moderno ha cambiado de forma; armas que no disparan balas, tecnologías que no dejan cráteres y programas que operan lejos del escrutinio público. Desde el arsenal que las potencias reconocen abiertamente, hasta sistemas capaces de afectar el cuerpo, la mente y la percepción humana sin una sola imagen de guerra tradicional.Analizamos el rol de agencias como DARPA y la CIA, el uso de armas de energía dirigida, la automatización del combate y los límites éticos que empiezan a desdibujarse cuando la supervivencia se convierte en excusa.No es ciencia ficción.No es un escenario futuro.Es una transformación silenciosa del poder y de la forma de hacer la guerra.Este episodio no busca generar miedo.Busca una pregunta.¿Estamos frente a una amenaza que vendrá…o ya estamos viviendo dentro de ella?Para contactarnos directamente: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠conspiraciones21@protonmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In the male-dominated world of international espionage, the stories of the women who quietly shaped history have too often been overlooked. Agents of Change: The Women Who Transformed the CIA by Christina Hillsberg brings those stories into the spotlight, revealing how courage, resilience, and grit helped women redefine what it means to be a spy.A New Lens on Intelligence HistoryFor decades, popular culture has portrayed female spies as glamorous sidekicks or exotic figures. But the real history of women in the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) tells a very different story: one of trailblazers who fought systemic bias, navigated dangerous operations, and forged paths in one of the most secretive institutions in the world.Agents of Change charts that history from the 1960s “secretarial era” through decades of steady progress toward leadership and influence. Along the way, Hillsberg weaves together firsthand accounts from female CIA officers who broke barriers, tackled espionage missions, and reshaped the agency from within. Hosted on Acast.
