Jason Hanson knows how to keep a secret. It's part of his job, actually - he's a former officer of the CIA, or 'The Agency' as insiders call it - along with an instructor in escape and evasion via his his tactical spy school, a frequent media guest on television programs around the world, and even a New York Times bestselling author with his book 'Spy Secrets That Can Save Your Life.' And with a resumé ranging from surveillance to Shark Tank, safe to say Jason's got more than a few good stories worth sharing from the world of intelligence espionage.

  • I'm a big fan of your show Mike! I urge you to have Massad Ayoob as a guest. His resume is about as long as a thesis. Almost everything I know about firearms is credited to him. I took his LFI-1 (now called MAG-40) course years ago to learn the legalities of self-defense shooting for which he's most known for. Please take inviting Massad Ayoob into consideration.

  • Guys, please don’t attempt to bribe a cop in Western Europe. I assume he’s talking about Eastern Europe because that stuff won’t fly in the vast majority of Europe. His advice will work 9 out of 10 times in Latin America though.

  • This podcast autoplays after almost every gun video I watch. I do not like this KZhead channel at all I find it pretty annoying in general because it's boring. The intro is super cringe and honestly I think the intro is just so cringy it makes it where I can't take anything else that's mentioned in the entire podcast seriously and I desperately wish for it to stop playing by itself. If the owner of this channel sees this message please block me
