What listeners will find here
Houthis, Yemen, Russia, and U.S. drift collide in a wide-ranging geopolitics episode
Escalating Houthi attacks on Saudi airports drive a discussion about Yemen, Saudi air defenses, and whether the U.S. could be drawn into a new campaign. The episode then pivots to Trump’s Russian diesel deal, Iran’s use of Moscow as a channel, and the political apathy shaping American choices.
Inside the double-agent operation that drew in Russian military intelligence
Naveed Jamali traces his path from a New York family business to working with the FBI against the GRU and later becoming a Naval Intelligence officer. The episode digs into Russian recruitment tactics, the strain of undercover work, and why modern counterintelligence still matters.
From RAF Fairford to Iraq: a fast-moving tour of today’s security flashpoints
This episode ranges from suspected activity around RAF Fairford and the sudden departure of U.S. B-1B bombers to airline hijacking fears, drone threats, and a reported pneumonic plague death at a Russian research facility. It also turns to the John Chapman controversy, valor-award politics, and how U.S. policy in Iraq and Syria affected Iran’s regional influence.
From cockpit terror to regional escalation: a fast-moving look at Iran, Iraq, and risk
The episode centers on the attempted hijacking of Flydubai Flight 1073, examining missed warning signs, insider-threat concerns, and whether the attack points to Iran or a lone actor. It then widens into Iran-linked plots in the UK, the U.S. pullout from Iraq, and signs of possible new escalation in the Middle East.
From Iraq to the NSC: Julia Curlee on intelligence, transition, and political purges
Julia Curlee traces a path from DIA and CIA work in Iraq and Afghanistan to briefing the White House and serving on the National Security Council. The episode mixes frontline intelligence stories with her account of transitioning at CIA, the politicization of analysis, and the purges she says weakened U.S. national security.
