Episode 2, Tricks of Tradecraft:CNBC's Eamon Javers talks to a former chief of counterintelligence at the CIA, James Olson, whose expertise from his 31-year career makes him essential to understanding the case of a spy from China who targeted GE's jet engine trade secrets. Javers also interviews aviation analysts to discuss the challenges China faces in building its own commercial passenger planes, why it would be after GE's technology, and why the technology is so difficult to master or replicate. ----CNBC Documentaries examines the case of a Chinese government spy who tried to steal trade secrets from some of America's biggest companies, including GE, Boeing and Honeywell. Correspondent Eamon Javers talks with prosecutors, intelligence experts and government officials, including the Director of the FBI, Christopher Wray — all of whom say the case is an example of China's desire to dominate global markets through any means necessary, including stealing technology from the heart of corporate America.

Matrix escapes the baddies tasked with escorting him to the country to kill the president, and the action blows up from there.

James Olson is a management-trained philosopher whose studies have included business, engineering, art, Eastern and Western religion, yoga, qigong, psychology, language, neuro- linguistic programming, philosophy, and brain perspective. The Whole-Brain Path to Peace, Olson's first book, is the result of almost twenty years of research. His ultimate goal in writing the book was to promote the holistic perspective. As a practicing philosopher, he has worked most of his life to unify his understanding of material things, ideas and spiritual energies by eliminating conflicting ideas and embracing those that are in harmony with one another. A former church deacon and farmer, as well as a state and national winner in 4-H, Olson starts with a core of conservative farm and Christian values, and into that integrates the complementary perspective of Eastern religion, the liberal perspective of Europe, the wisdom of ancient Egypt, the facts of science, the discipline of business, and the unique spiritual insights offered by modern revelation. Following the unifying guidelines of philosophy and drawing on his wide-ranging education, Olson has made it his mission to help bring the planet's masculine and feminine energies into greater balance, and therefore into a more peaceful state, through his advocacy of the whole- brain path to peace. Olson has traveled extensively throughout Europe; lived in Austria, France, and Germany; and attended Oklahoma State University, the University of Vienna, Oklahoma University, the University of Missouri at Kansas City, and the Kansas City Art Institute. He holds a degree in business administration, and is currently studying sacred geometry and the experience of living in the heart.******************************************************************To listen to all our XZBN shows, with our compliments go to: https://www.spreaker.com/user/xzoneradiotv*** AND NOW ***The ‘X' Zone TV Channel on SimulTV - www.simultv.comThe ‘X' Chronicles Newspaper - www.xchroniclesnewpaper.com

This week, he shares with us an overview of the turbulent history surrounding U.S. counterintelligence, including personal experiences and thoughts about encountering and catching some of America's worst traitors in history.Click HERE for Part 2!To learn more about and purchase Jim's books, check out the following links:Amazon - Fair Play: The Moral Dilemmas of SpyingBarnes and Noble - Fair Play: The Moral Dilemmas of Spying Amazon - To Catch a Spy: The Art of CounterintelligenceBarnes and Noble - To Catch a Spy: The Art of CounterintelligenceNEW!

Drawing broadly on science, philosophy, politics, and wisdom teachings, James Olson, in his book The Whole-Brain Path to Peace: The Role of Left-and Right-Brain Dominance in the Polarization and Reunification of America, offers a holistic look at how the brain's division into distinct hemispheres results in two divergent perspectives on our experience. These contrasting perceptions of the world, in turn, become a direct cause of the crippling polarizations we see today in gender relations, politics, and public policy—leading to culture wars and even modern warfare. Noting that one side of the brain always tends to dominate the other, Olson offers novel methods to minimize this imbalance and incorporates the most recent neuroscience research in this updated second edition.

What You'll Learn Intelligence o His past experience as a hardliner who loved to hate the “evil empire” o His thoughts on a trip through the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe in the twilight of the Cold War, especially experiencing it as an American Jew o His interpretation of the KGB and Vladimir Putin o His take on the “moral equivalency” argument and U.S. foreign policy ·Reflections o The role of complexity vs. simplicity in understanding “the Other” o Joe's journey from the Chicago suburbs of Illinois to Langley to New York City And much, much more… Episode Notes “How dare you, Joe Weisberg, make me rethink my comfortable loathing of the Russians.” Not Andrew's words, but those of former chief of CIA counterintelligence James Olson in an encomium for the book (albeit a little tongue-in-cheek). If that is not enough to get you intrigued in Joe's new book, Russia Upside Down, then perhaps the sub-title will, An Exit Strategy for the Second Cold War. So how do we get out of the Second Cold War? To find out Joe's diagnosis and prognosis, and much else besides, Andrew sat down with him for this week's episode. A fair number of listeners will know of Joe as creator of the award-winning and hugely popular TV series, The Americans, some may even know that he had a three-and-a-half-year stint in the CIA where he trained to be a case officer; a few may even be a know him from his stint at the Agency which began on the eve of the dissolution of the Soviet Union. And… The Americans is set in and around NoVa which is replete with all manner of famous sites from intelligence history – including the Arlington home of real-life Russian illegals Nataliya Pereverzeva and Michael Zottoli Mikhail Kutsik who were rolled up by the FBI in 2010 as part of Operation Ghost Stories” which we cover in our exhibits. Quote of the Week "When I was working at the CIA and in my younger years, I had a very one-dimensional view of this evil empire, this totalitarian state that we had to fight because we were the good guys, and we were the bad guys. And the book that I've written is essentially a kind of argument with myself or me with my younger self to say, huh, I think you were not looking at that in all the complexity that you might have." – Joe Weisberg FURTHER RESOURCES SpyCasts o KGB Illegal Jack Barsky here and here o The Spymasters Prism: CIA Legend Jack Devine on Countering Russian Aggression o 2010 Russian Spy Case – KGB Major General Oleg Kalugin o Spy Sites of Washington D.C.

Ah, Paul Newman - arguably the biggest actor of the ‘60s. Who doesn't get lost in those dreamy blue eyes? But this episode isn't about him, really. It's about his better half, Joanne Woodward, who had twice his acting chops but, unfortunately, a quarter of his drawing power on the marquee. But you don't need to do the math to discover how great Joanne is after you watch all her ‘60s movies. Don't just take it from us, this episode was actually inspired by a listener's request for more Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward films. (Yeah, that's a thing you can do! No promises we'll always do it though.)In this episode, Bart and Jenna trace Joanne Woodward's films alongside that of her more famous husband and decide that hers are the ones they really wanted to talk about. From her impressive range that spans dramatic to comedic to New Hollywood genuine, she has a charm that cannot be denied.The following films are discussed:• From The Terrace (1960) Directed by Mark Robson Starring Joanne Woodward, Paul Newman, Ina Balin• Paris Blues (1961) Directed by Martin Ritt Starring Joanne Woodward, Paul Newman, Sidney Poitier• A New Kind of Love (1963) Directed by Melville Shavelson Starring Joanne Woodward, Paul Newman, Thelma Ritter• The Stripper (1963) Directed by Franklin J.

In this episode I provide an introduction to the world's most famous spy writer. John le Carré began writing novels as a way to relieve the boredom of his duties as an upper-class raised British diplomat. That was what the world was told. The reality was that he wrote under a pseudonym; in truth he was a spy for MI6. His ability to live two lives at once was what made him both a successful spy as well as one of the most famous espionage novelists of all time. Much of the research came from Adam Sisman's essential biography of le Carré. James Olson's book Fair Play was also quite helpful along with the collection of le Carré interviews called Conversations with John le Carré edited by Matthew J. Bruccoli and Judith S. Baughman.
