Cautionary Tales with Tim Harford - En podkast av Pushkin Industries - Fredager

Here's a great podcast you might like. It’s called I Spy and it’s made by our friends over at Foreign Policy. On each episode they get a former spy to tell the story of one operation. The show we're bringing you is called The Cassandra. Frank Snepp, a CIA analyst based in Saigon, explains how he discovered that Communist forces were preparing to attack the city. His superiors refused to heed his warnings - resulting in a frenzied, bloody and humiliating evacuation as his predictions came true. If you like it, you can hear part two over at I Spy (https://foreignpolicy.com/podcasts/ispy/) Enjoy the show. Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com
