The Kennedy Beacon Podcast #010 - The CIA: Crime and Chaos

This week, our hosts Frances Scott, Niko House and Aaron Good have a fascinating conversation about patriotism, the CIA, the Middle East and more with John Kiriakou, CIA officer turned whistleblower. In 2008 and 2009, John gave classified information about the CIA’s torture program and the waterboarding of al-Qaeda operative, Abu Zubaida, to a reporter, and in 2017 he was convicted and sentenced to 30 months in prison.

John Kiriakou is a columnist at Reader Supported News and the co-host of Loud and Clear on Sputnik Radio. He is also the author of numerous books, including, The Reluctant Spy: My Secret Life in the CIA’s War on Terror, and Doing Time Like a Spy: How the CIA Taught Me To Survive and Thrive in Prison.
