1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: This is podcast legend Adam Davidson, I'm talking.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:05,800
Speaker 2: To a few things more important than that.

3
00:00:07,720 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 1: So John Cipher and Jerry o'sha, what did you guys

4
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:11,360
Speaker 1: do for a living?

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:13,120
Speaker 3: We were legends in the CIA.

6
00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:16,079
Speaker 1: You were legends in the CIA, at least in our

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: own minds.

8
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,960
Speaker 2: So we worked in the CIA for thirty plus years

9
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: trying to recruit and run spies around the world.

10
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:24,959
Speaker 4: We deal with a lot of conspiracy theories inside of

11
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,120
Speaker 4: the agency, and there are actual conspiracies.

12
00:00:28,520 --> 00:00:29,760
Speaker 1: What is mission implausible?

13
00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:36,560
Speaker 3: We're looking at conspiracies and conspiracy theories from a conspiratorial mindset.

14
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,559
Speaker 2: Each episode will we take a conspiracy and deconstruct it,

15
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:41,959
Speaker 2: see where it's coming from, and in the process tell

16
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 2: a little bit about our backgrounds and how conspiracies fit

17
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: into the work we did in our secret work.

18
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 3: And we're going to have a lot of fun doing it.

19
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: So what are people going to get out of this show?

20
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 2: We want to use our experience and some of the

21
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,040
Speaker 2: stories that we know from the inside to help people

22
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 2: understand some of the things that they've been told or

23
00:00:58,360 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 2: they've read about over the years.

24
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 5: But I think it's also important because increasingly into the future,

25
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 5: other governments Russians, Chinese are going to be using conspiracy

26
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 5: theories against us, and I think it's really important to

27
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 5: the health of our democracy. The people are able to

28
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:18,119
Speaker 5: recognize conspiracies which exist, conspiracy theories which don't, and how

29
00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 5: to tell the difference between them.

30
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 2: So, Adam, if people want a healthy democracy, they need

31
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,600
Speaker 2: to listen to Mission implausible.

32
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:27,679
Speaker 1: Listen to Mission Implausible starting on February seventh on the

33
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:33,319
