Podcasts about Secret service

Brad Beeler, author of Tell Me Everything and retired Secret Service agent who has conducted more criminal polygraphs than anyone in the agency’s history, was clearing a house on a search warrant when he came across two dogs: a pitbull and a Chihuahua. His focus locked on the pitbull. The stereotype. The threat. Meanwhile, the Chihuahua circled behind him and jumped up, latching onto him right between the legs while his partner stood there laughing. We assign horns and halos fast. Brad learned that lesson with dogs. You learn it every time a prospect shuts down before you finish your introduction. Horns mean danger. Hurtful. Someone here to take from me. Halo means safe. Helpful. On my side. Over 25 years of getting people to confess to federal crimes, Brad discovered something powerful: the same instincts that get hardened criminals to talk work in conference rooms. The techniques that break through with people who have every reason to lie also work on prospects who have every reason to brush you off. Because in both environments, trust determines everything. Why Building Trust With Prospects Is Harder Than You Think Your brain’s been running this horns-and-halos program for 300,000 years. When something rustled in the bushes, you made a split-second decision: climb a tree or fight. That quick judgment kept you alive. The moment you walk into a prospect meeting, their brain assigns you horns automatically. You are the salesperson. The interruption. The person asking for their budget. In their mind, you represent risk before you ever speak. It happens on cold calls. You say, “Hi, this is…” and they are already calculating how to end the conversation. On discovery calls. In demos. At conferences when you introduce yourself. Every single time. You are fighting ancient wiring every time you engage a buyer. So what can you control? The first 90 seconds. How to Build Trust in the First 90 Seconds We remember first impressions and last impressions. In most meetings, it begins and ends with a handshake. Brad puts antiperspirant on his right hand. He warms his hands before entering a room. He holds eye contact for one second. Faces the person straight on. Slows his pace. Lowers his tone. It sounds mechanical. But every one of these micro-decisions either confirms horns or begins to build a halo. Wet handshake? You’re nervous, unprepared, not confident in what you’re selling. Avoiding eye contact? You’re hiding something or you don’t believe in your own pitch. Talking too fast? You’re trying to get something past them before they catch on. When you control these variables, people’s guard comes down faster. You’re giving their brain evidence that maybe, just maybe, you’re not the threat they assumed you were. The Trust-Building Technique Most Salespeople Get Wrong Brad would sit across from murder suspects and open with one line: “I need you to help me understand.” Humans are hardwired to explain. When you position yourself as the learner, something shifts. They become the expert. Their guard drops. They start talking. Most salespeople walk in ready to educate. Your deck. Your case studies. Your demo. You’re there to prove you know their problems better than they do. Sometimes that works. But think about what it communicates: “I already know what’s wrong with your business. I just need you to agree with me and sign here.” Instead, try: “Walk me through what happens when your team processes a new order.” “Help me understand how you’re handling onboarding right now.” “What’s your biggest bottleneck?” Invert the dynamic. You’re not there to impress them. You’re there to learn from them. Once buyers start explaining their world, they reveal what matters. The workaround their team built. The spreadsheet that breaks every month. The process leadership thinks is automated but is completely manual. That’s the information that moves your deal forward. How to Build Rapport Before the Real Conversation Starts Before interrogating two suspects, Brad bought them food. Popeyes for one. McDonald’s for the other. Twenty-two dollars total. The next day, the woman’s on a jail call: “Yeah, they got me with the McDonald’s. That’s why I confessed.” It was not about the food. It was about comfort. Lowering the guard. Creating what Brad calls a confessional environment where people feel safe telling the truth. You’re probably not buying prospects lunch before your first call. But the principle still applies. Show up five minutes early so they don’t feel rushed. Ask about their weekend before diving into business. Acknowledge that you know their time is valuable. Turn your camera off if they seem uncomfortable on video. Send the agenda beforehand so there are no surprises. These are small friction eliminators. They signal: I’m not here to ambush you. I’m not trying to catch you off guard. We’re having a conversation, not a pitch. The prospect who feels safe tells you what’s really going on. The prospect who feels ambushed gives you the corporate line and ends the call early. What Happens When You Actually Build Trust With Buyers When buyers move you from horns to halo, everything changes. They stop filtering their answers. They tell you what keeps them up at night. They admit where the process breaks. They share internal pressure you would never see in a polished demo. I’ve watched this play out hundreds of times. The rep who asks better questions closes more deals than the rep with the better demo. The rep who makes prospects comfortable gets to real problems faster than the rep with the perfect pitch. Brad spent 25 years getting people to confess to federal crimes. He still warms up his hands before handshakes. Still slows his speech. Still positions himself as someone who needs to learn. Why? Because building trust isn’t about personality or natural charisma. It’s about technique. These methods work because they’re based on how humans actually operate, not how we wish they operated. And when buyers tell you the truth, you can actually help them. — Download our free Sales EQ Book Club Guide to master the emotional intelligence skills that help you read prospects and close more deals.

This episode of The Dad Verb Podcast features Cory Allen. Cory is a former police officer, a U.S. Secret Service agent, and a current Supervisory Special Agent. He joins us to talk about his new children's book, Dada Takes a Trip, on sale February 24, 2026.

Secret Service and the Zero-Fail MissionThe U.S. Secret Service lives by a simple standard: zero fail. Every route, every rooftop, and every split-second decision demands excellence because the mission leaves no room for mistakes.Jeff Rinehart has built his career around that expectation. The 1993 Cedarville University graduate has spent nearly three decades with the Secret Service, rising into senior leadership and carrying the weight of protecting the nation and serving its government with quiet professionalism.To most people, the Secret Service looks like dark suits, earpieces, and sunglasses. Rinehart understands the mystique, but he points to something deeper. The heart of the work, he says, is service — service to the United States, to its government, and to the people who rely on it.That sense of purpose demands steady discipline. In a job where one mistake can change history, Rinehart has pursued excellence the way a craftsman pursues a clean finish: by doing the small things right every day. He has protected dignitaries and worked alongside world leaders, but he also recognizes that the agency's mission stretches far beyond what the cameras capture.The Secret Service investigates cybercrime and financial fraud, and Rinehart speaks about those cases with real conviction. When agents stop someone from draining a senior citizen's life savings, the work matters. When they track down cyber predators who exploit children online, the reward runs even deeper. He does not glamorize the job. He honors it, and he honors the people it helps.Over the years, Rinehart has stepped up to a wide range of assignments. He served on the presidential detail for President George W. Bush, handled sensitive work as a foreign attaché officer, and built cases as a criminal investigator. Each role demanded the same steady excellence day after day, whether anyone is watching or not.In his current role, Rinehart has helped keep President Donald Trump safe during multiple visits overseas, including trips to Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. Those miles add another layer to the mission: unfamiliar terrain, shifting schedules, and constant coordination with host nations. Still, the expectation never changes. The detail must run clean, the planning must hold, and the team must be ready for anything.Rinehart recently shared his story as a guest on the Cedarville Stories podcast. In his trademark steady way, he made it clear that the Secret Service is more than an image. It is a calling to serve something bigger than oneself and a daily commitment to excellence in a mission where “zero fail” is not a tagline but a promise.https://share.transistor.fm/s/93bc077dhttps://youtu.be/YtBjp1nYnOM

The blizzard of 2026 is here, dumping lots of the white stuff along the East Coast. There's so much concern the snow would pile up and bring things to a standstill, New York City called on regular citizens to grab their shovels and clear the way - and they're getting paid to do it! And while he's bringing home the gold, Team USA hockey star Jack Hughes is coming home without some of his teeth. He will no doubt get a hero's welcome, and among those waiting for him is his oral surgeon. Alison Hall spoke with him about how he will fix that smile. Plus, we're learning more today about the 21-year-old who was shot and killed by Secret Service after entering the president's Palm Beach property with a gun. Today we're getting reaction from the man serving life for attempting to kill the president on his Florida golf course.  His daughter helped put our Steven Fabian in touch with him from federal prison. And Mexico is one of the top destinations for Americans going on vacation. However, right now it's a cartel battle zone. There is total chaos at airports as a drug cartel looks to get revenge for authorities killing their leader known as El Mencho.

Today on America in the MorningChaos In Mexico Tourists from around the world, especially the United States, are hoping to get out of the Mexican resort cities that have been hit by drug cartel violence following the death of one powerful cartel leader.  Correspondent Rich Johnson reports the cartel attacks came after a drug kingpin known as “El Mencho” was tracked down and killed by Mexico's government forces.   The Northeast Blizzard   The Blizzard of 2026 will be remembered as the worst winter storm to hit the Northeast in 30 years, and even though the snow has stopped, the effects of the blizzard will remain for days and weeks.  Sue Aller reports from New York, where some places received over 2 feet of snow.   State Of The Union Preview President Trump will address the nation tonight in his annual State of the Union address.  Correspondent Clayton Neville has a preview.    Mar-A-Lago Intruder Killed More is being learned about the armed man who was shot and killed after he breached security at President Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort Sunday by the Secret Service.  Correspondent Julie Walker reports.   Congressman Facing Resignation Calls Texas Congressman Tony Gonzales is facing growing pressure to resign amid allegations that he had coerced a sexual relationship with a staff member who later killed herself.     Judge Rules On Trump Probe A federal judge has permanently barred the release of special counsel Jack Smith's probe into President Trump's keeping of classified documents.  Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports.   Blizzard Aftermath It started on Sunday and is finally winding down, but for many between Delaware and Maine, the Blizzard of 2026 has left people under snow measured in feet, mass transportation systems closed down, and airport flight cancellations in the thousands.  Correspondent Julie Walker reports a huge snowstorm in the northeast forces millions to stay home and closing schools, and in Boston, this snow event is expected to eclipse Beantown's January blizzard which dumped the 8th highest snow total Boston has ever had.   New Epstein Fallout There's more fallout overseas regarding the Jeffrey Epstein files, including another high-profile arrest and a mea-culpa from a famous self-help guru.  Correspondent Clayton Neville reports.   War Enters Year 5 It was four years ago today that Russia sent a phalanx of tanks and launched air strikes against Ukraine, a military incursion that the Kremlin believed would take days to seize their neighbor and former Soviet satellite state, but instead, four years later, Russia barely holds 20 percent of Ukrainian territory, hundreds of thousands of Russian troops are believed to have died, and hardships for Ukraine's people worsen by the day.  Correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports some hardships of a different kind are now befalling Russian citizens far from the fighting.    US Orders Some Out Of Lebanon The U.S. State Department ordered non-emergency personnel to evacuate the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon.  Finally   Both the British BATFA Awards, the UK's version of the Oscars, and the BBC are apologizing after a guest with Tourette syndrome shouted racial slurs as two Black actors were onstage, with millions of people watching.  Entertainment reporter Kevin Carr has the story.

What the heck is going on in Mexico? Glenn goes through the latest in the failed narco-state down south, as this weekend saw widespread violence after the death of known drug lord El Mencho. Glenn explains why Mexico is yet another example of a death cult within society. Breitbart Cartel Chronicles co-founder and director Brandon Darby joins to discuss whether U.S. forces helped kill El Mencho, which ignited a violent cartel war across Mexico. The United States won the gold medal in ice hockey for the first time in 40 years, and Glenn is proud of it, despite media outlets telling Americans they shouldn't be. Glenn reacts to some of the highlights of yesterday's big win. Former Pentagon UAP official Lue Elizondo joins to discuss Obama's recent claim regarding alien life on Earth. Are there classified documents that prove extraterrestrials have visited Earth? Glenn and Lue also theorize how the existence of alien life could be different from what we have previously thought. Glenn discusses the latest mentally ill person who tried to enter Mar-a-Lago with a firearm, which led to the Secret Service taking fatal action.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In Hulu's twisty drama series Paradise, Sterling K. Brown plays a Secret Service agent caught up in a web of intrigue after the president of the United States (James Marsden) is assassinated, with no suspect in sight. But at the end of the first episode, we learn this show is about way more than the murder of the head of state. From Dan Fogelman (This is Us), the series is back for a second season, so we're revisiting our conversation about the show. Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

On a freezing morning, it feels smart to let your car idle and warm up before driving off. But is it? Modern engines aren't built the way they used to be. In fact, letting your car sit and idle too long may not be doing what you think it is. This episode begins with what actually happens under the hood — and how long you really should wait before you hit the gas and go. https://www.mensjournal.com/gear/stop-idling-like-its-1985-warm-up-your-car-right There are few communication situations more intense than when a Secret Service agent speaks with someone who has threatened the President of the United States. In those moments, connection, trust, and careful listening aren't just helpful — they're critical. Brad Beeler developed his communication skills in those exact circumstances and shares how anyone can apply those same techniques to everyday conversations. Brad served in many roles at the Secret Service including on the protection detail for President George H.W. Bush. He is author of Tell Me Everything: A Secret Service Agent's Proven Strategies for Earning Trust, Revealing the Truth, and Communicating with Anyone (https://amzn.to/3M5YlKy). Designing a meaningful life may not be about discovering your one true calling or waiting for passion to strike. What if finding meaning is something you build through experimentation — by testing ideas, adjusting course, and learning from experience? Bill Burnett explains how “design thinking” can be applied to life itself. He is executive director of the Stanford Life Design Lab, founder of the Designing Your Life Institute, and co-author of How to Live a Meaningful Life: Using Design Thinking to Unlock Purpose, Joy, and Flow Every Day. (https://amzn.to/4ataW2i) And finally, when a company doesn't honor its promise, most people either complain or give up. But there's another tool that can quickly get a retailer's attention: the chargeback. We wrap up with how chargebacks actually work — and why businesses take them very seriously. https://www.mastercard.com/us/en/news-and-trends/Insights/2025/what-s-the-true-cost-of-a-chargeback-in-2025.html PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS QUINCE: Refresh your wardrobe with Quince!

U.S. Secret Service agents and Palm Beach County sheriff's deputies swiftly neutralized an armed intruder who breached the secure perimeter of President Trump's Mar-a-Lago estate while carrying a shotgun and a gas can. The suspect ignored repeated commands to drop his weapons, raised the shotgun toward officers, and was taken down in a decisive and professional response that prevented any further threat to the property or personnel.

Today's Headlines: On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 that Donald Trump's tariffs are unconstitutional under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. The dissenters: Thomas, Alito, and Kavanaugh. Trump responded by blasting Justices Gorsuch and Barrett as “disloyal” and insisting he can “destroy trade” but not “charge a little fee.” He then proposed a global 10% tariff workaround — later bumped to 15%. Meanwhile, Americans are still effectively paying 9.1% in tariffs, and the Court didn't address what happens to the $133 billion already collected. Over the weekend, Trump announced he's sending a “great hospital boat” to Greenland, despite Denmark saying it wasn't informed and doesn't need it. The Navy ships in question are reportedly in Alabama. Sure. On the Russia beat, a Trump ally signed a natural gas deal with Russian energy giant Novatek despite U.S. sanctions tied to Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine — the first known new U.S.–Russia venture of its kind. Separately, ICE and other agencies contracted with phone-forensics firm Oxygen Forensics, which has ties to sanctioned former FSB figures. At the same time, DHS has issued hundreds of subpoenas to tech companies seeking identifying information on users critical of ICE. Trump is also pressuring Netflix to remove Susan Rice from its board amid maneuvering around a media acquisition deal that could affect CNN. Casual. In Florida, Secret Service agents shot and killed a 21-year-old man who allegedly breached the perimeter of Mar-a-Lagowith what appeared to be a shotgun and fuel can; the investigation is ongoing. Meanwhile, Florida lawmakers approved renaming Palm Beach International Airport after Trump — a $5.5 million rebrand. And finally, taxpayers will now provide new Secret Service agents with two tailored suits upon graduation. Inflation hits us all differently.

What does it take to go undercover with international cybercriminals — with no backup, no safe house, and no script? In this episode of The Audit, Richard LaTulip, Field CISO at Recorded Future and former U.S. Secret Service agent, pulls back the curtain on three years of undercover operations spanning Thailand, Dubai, Macau, and China. From buying stolen credit card data in bulk to handing cheap government-issued laptops to disappointed hackers, Richard shares the raw, unfiltered reality Hollywood never shows you. Co-hosts Joshua J Schmidt, Eric Brown, Nick Mellem, and Jen Lotze dig into the psychology of social engineering, the stark differences between nation-state and financially motivated threat actors, and why your employees are simultaneously your greatest asset and your biggest vulnerability. Richard breaks down how SolarWinds revealed the patience of nation-state operations, why cultural awareness is a cybersecurity weapon, and how organizations can shift security from a cost center to a value driver.

Bill O'Reilly joins Jillian Michaels for a deep dive breakdown of two explosive crises shaking the world: a potential U.S. war with Iran — and the growing fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files. With American aircraft carriers and stealth fighters converging in the Middle East, O'Reilly shares rare insight from his private conversations with Donald Trump, revealing what a real conflict with Iran could look like, why nuclear inspections matter, and how U.S. foreign policy shifted under Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Then the conversation turns to the Epstein cover-up. While European countries arrest Epstein collaborators, America's elite remain untouched — including billionaires like Bill Gates and celebrities like Jay-Z. O'Reilly exposes the staggering three million documents in the Epstein investigation and explains the procedural roadblock preventing prosecutions in the U.S. And what are the Clintons really hiding? As Hillary Clinton launches a defensive media blitz pointing fingers at Trump, the facts remain: Bill Clinton flew on Epstein's plane 26 times and hosted him at the White House 17 times. O'Reilly calls on Congress to release the missing Secret Service logs to finally determine who was truly on Epstein's island. This is an unfiltered conversation about war, power, corruption, and the collapse of due process — and why accountability looks very different depending on who you are. No cable-news theatrics. No talking points. Just raw truth about Iran, Epstein, the Clinton cover-up, and what comes next. Subscribe for more unfiltered conversations on Keeping It Real with Jillian Michaels.
