Wow.

As a speculatove spy thriller novelist, I’m always looking for insights into espionage… and WOW did this interview blow me away.

What an eye opener. Great questions and fantastic engagement by the guests… who were THERE. What an incredible story! (Truth).

Comforting and terrifying at the same time! 😀

Looking for a podcast that will entertain you while making you think and learn?

Spycast and Dr. Andrew Hammond really deliver. They have interesting guests...smart, engaging, and experienced.

Dr. Hammond is a thoughtful interviewer. It's clear he keeps the listener in mind while crafting his questions. There are so many times a question will pop into my head while listening and he'll ask the guest that question just as it forms in my mind.

They pull back the curtains and give us a look at the humans behind the headlines.

Do yourself a favor and give it a listen...

and keep all your devices up-to-date!
