x-spy Jack Beaumont reveals how he maintained five false identities at once by Emily Pidgeon A former spy has opened up about one of the most grueling aspects of his secretive job. Jack Beaumont (not his real name) is a former operative in the clandestine operations branch of the French foreign secret service, known as the DGSE. Speaking to news.com.au's podcast, I've Got News For You, Beaumont explained that the job required him to have five false identities on the go at all times, and detailed the incredible effort it took to maintain them all. "If it's an ID you use to try to recruit a human source, and it's a long-term manipulation, then the ID has to be quite solid," Beaumont told podcast host Andrew Bucklow.That meant that each false identity had to have a social media presence and a different address. "Every one of those IDs have to be, if necessary, dismantled in 24 hours," he said. "So you can't just rent a flat because you will leave a trace of payment. "You have to find some place in Paris or in the countryside where you have some empty flats and then you're going to make them yours."Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

De Payns infiltrates the clandestine meeting a of Russian private military company, follows the trail of a shady individual codenamed Starkand, and nearly gets assassinated himself. Meanwhile, de Payns marriage is falling apart and his mental state unraveling as his wife, Romy, pulls away from her increasingly paranoid husband.

About the author Jack Beaumont joined the French Air Force in his late teens, trained as a fighter pilot on Mirage 2000-5 single seaters for air-to-air combat, and was deployed in various conflicts. After being injured in a flying accident, he subsequently flew clandestine missions for French special forces and intelligence services before joining the DGSE, where he carried out clandestine operations in the field under false identities. He has since retired from the DGSE and is married with children.

At any one time, Jack Beaumont had five different identities. Different names, different families, different local cafes. Every morning, he woke up and became someone else. As a spy with the DGSE - the French CIA - he spent years infiltrating the worst humans on earth.

In this episode of Last Stroke Counts, we're excited to sit down with Tom Jost, the Director of Rowing at Claire's Court School. Known as Josty around the circuit, he's not just a respected figure in UK rowing, but also a brilliant coach whose guidance has led to Henley Royal Regatta victories for both boy's and girl's crews at Claire's Court in 2016 & 2022. Tom shares his journey in the rowing world, competing for GB as a junior, and developing his unique coaching style. Tom consistently helps athletes develop through the ranks and adds speed to any crew that he leads. We dive deep into his diverse methods and approach to training, exploring how layering rowing techniques can effectively lead to remarkable success on the water. From discussing biomechanics, force application and improving boat speed, Josty provides invaluable insights that he's garnered over his extensive career, where he's coached many GB crews at international regattas but also athletes like Jack Beaumont and Phil Clapp. Josty's infectious enthusiasm, deep knowledge, and positive approach to the sport make this episode a great listen. His anecdotes, coupled with humour & wisdom, provide a glimpse into what makes a great coach and how to nurture winning teams. So, tune in & join us as we remind ourselves all that competitive rowing is not just about physical strength, but also about thinking outside the box, where every last stroke counts.

Ah, you wait all year for a returning Olympian guest on Broken Oars Podcast and two come along at once ...   Following on from catching up with Jack Beaumont, Broken Oars Podcast was joined (again) by strawberry-blonde rowing legend Andrew Triggs-Hodge, three-time Olympic champion and finest stroke of his generation (no, Matthew, you can't argue. You were the generation before).   A late night chat of an episode due to it being recorded late at night and while Hodge was recovering from Covid, we talk about the Centurion challenge, Andy's work with London Youth Rowing, the significant challenges facing British Rowing as a participation and performance sport, the future of club rowing in Britain at a time of declining participation, the madness inherent in letting Jurgen go one year out from an Olympics, and at a time when the governance of the sport is up for grabs and the implementation of the Elite programmes still to be decided ... what next for Britain's most successful Olympic sport?   I've two words for you British Cycling. You can choose from Richard Freeman or Jiffy Bag. Stern four, coming in with Bow four, next stroke ... because we're literally all in this boat together.

Broken Oars, Episode 27: Jack Beaumont Returns!   Ladies, Gentlemen, children of all ages!   Broken Oars is back on your airwaves and in your ears just in time for the drive to and from the boathouse with something of a special episode - our first returning guest!   It is true that there are only seven seats of separation in UK rowing - everyone knows everyone else and everyone knows everyone else's 2k score. The cynical might suggest that it was only a matter of time before we ran out of people to talk to and just started back at the beginning again ...   Rowers?   Cynical?   Watashi?   (Not quite the original joke, but you get the gist...).   Not so!   We are hugely proud and pleased that our first returning guest is Jack Beaumont.   Jack first came on back in the old days where we'd discuss the merits of spaniels playing international football, why lightweights need to find a sport that loves them and whether Conan the Barbarian or Matthew Pinsent would make our fantasy eight. He was the first elite athlete and British Olympian to take the plunge, just beating out Hodge, and his bravery was widely commentated on by anyone who knows us ...   But that episode remains a Broken Oars high-water mark with one of this country's finest exponents of the art and craft of sculling - a dedicated club man and a passionate advocate of all that's good in this great sport of ours.   We've all passed a lot of water since those days of the first lockdowns. Broken Oars has attained a certain amount of respectability in that time. However, this pales in comparison to Jack's year.   One of British Rowing's finest and most approachable ambassadors, Jack comes back to talk about Tokyo, those epic races in the quad, a Games like no other and becoming an Olympic medallist and the fallout from British Rowing's perceived 'failure' in 2021.   But it doesn't stop there.   Talking about his experiences at the recent World Coastal Rowing Championships, Jack talks honestly and openly about the future of rowing in Britain, the need for all rowers and clubs to throw open their doors, pay their subs, bring a friend down to the boathouse and change the narrative of performance and pain to one of participation and fun ...   ... because otherwise we might not have a sport anymore.   A fantastic chat with a genuinely fantastic human being.   Full Crew - we are going now. And wind, and wind, and wind ...

On today's Briefing you're going to meet a real life Jason Bourne... or James Bond...    It's very rare that spies speak out publicly, as you'll hear, when they join a secret service they basically have to ghost their old life... stop contact with all their friends and family.    But the former French spy we're speaking to, has moved to Australia and he's written about his 9 years in the French secret service under the guise of fiction using a fictional alias... Jack Beaumont... the book's called The Frenchman. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jack Beaumont is the pseudonym for a former spy with the DGSE, French Foreign Secret Service. He has written a nail-biting thriller called 'The Frenchman' about the reality of being an under-cover operative, and is far from the picture painted by John Le Carre or Ian Fleming.
