The Team House Ep. 20 w/ CIA Operations Officer James Powell

James Powell served in the Marine Corps, the nuclear security industry, and then as a CIA Operations Officer. In this episode we have a wide ranging conversation with him that dispels a lot of myths surrounding what the CIA does and does not do. James walks us through his recruitment into the agency, training, and then going out into the field in Afghanistan and with the agency's little talked about National Resources division within the United States. We also discuss the so-called "black mafia" in the CIA.
