The Langley Files: CIA's Podcast

This is a sad, D.E.I.-obsessed podcast, a portrait of a sclerotic organization more eager to prove it is not “Pale, male, & Yale” than to discharge its responsibilities.

This is an informative and fun podcast, that peels back some of the layers of the Agency. I am writing a book that has a CIA element, and I want to know how to connect with someone within the agency that would be willing to help with realism. Any help would be greatly appreciated, but in the meantime I will keep listening. Thanks for this great project!

This is top tier American imperialist propaganda. 😍😜 I didn’t listen to it but I’m sure they didn’t mention their black sites, you know, where they torture anyone who is a suspect. What about their other missions to destabilize communist countries through fake uprisings, coups, and propaganda like this. You probably have been shielded from learning about CIA’s atrocities, but they’re real and still happening…

Hi there. I love the idea for the podcast. Obviously, for me to listen to this either means I’m in that industry, which I am not or that I am just a big fan of the spy genre. I think a big question I had after the recruiter episode was why literally are you now doing a podcast and are recruitment numbers down or are they up? It would feel to the lamen like me that you’re doing a podcast because you see it as an avenue and something you need to do, not something you want to do. I think the number of applicants and how they have either improved or went down, would’ve been an important question. Looking forward to hearing more episodes and seeing how deep you can actually go. I doubt the depth is really gonna be there, but would love to hear about recruitment of specialties like snipers. Keep up the good work.
