The Spy Life with Pete Turner - The Matt Balaker Podcast

Pete A Turner is a former Army combat spy--yes, this is true--with over 1000 missions in conflict zones in a variety of countries, like Bosnia, Egypt, Iraq and Afghanistan. His daily missions took him off-camp to find the people, information and secrets that enabled commanders to win.

Ultimately, Pete succeeded because he learned to earn the trust of the most dangerous and evil people in the region. This trust allowed Pete unique access to the “Ground Truth” illustrating the realities that exist below the tactical level.

Today, Pete uses his “Ground Truth” focused collection techniques on the Break It Down Show (BIDS). BIDS illustrates life through the experiences of
fascinating people. One of the things that makes BIDS unique is Pete's desire to rotate cohosts on to the show. By opening up the right seat, BIDS creates incredible conversations that aren't possible on other shows.
​
With over 900 episodes, his show is a leader in the veteran creative space. He is also the creator of the Prison Chronicles, an 8-part limited series from the Break It Down Show.
