    Ok
    Guests are fascinating! Unfortunately they’re overshadowed by a pompous narrative-puppet of a host constantly throwing softball/leading questions. Often to the point that the content feels completely rehearsed and unauthentic. So many wasted opportunities for real content.

    Absolutely fantastic
    Absolutely fantastic espionage podcast! The guests almost feel too good to be true- historians, writers, and actual operatives from the field!

    I need more!
    This podcast is SO up my alley. I was thrilled to find it. I really hope there is another season. I’d love to hear from someone involved in the wonderful French series The Bureau. Also, please ignore the Trump fan’s whiny review. 😬

    Left wing trash host
    Did you know that basically everything you’ve ever accomplished since 1776 was because Americans fought for you and gave it to you

    Time For New Material
    Hey Rory! Trump has been out of office for quite a few years now- time to find new material for your bad “jokes.” Don’t you Brits have your own politicians to demean? In case you’re not aware of it, there’s a senile old man and his gang of incompetent fools in the White House providing plenty of new material. Otherwise, your guests are fascinating- too bad you’re pathetic.
