The Langley Files: CIA's Podcast
You might have heard a thing or two about the CIA, but have you ever heard from the CIA? In the Central Intelligence Agency's first public podcast, you will. Let us be your guides around the corridors of CIA Headquarters in Langley, as you step beyond the Hollywood scripts and shadowed whispers to hear directly from the people serving each day as America's first line of defense. These are their stories. This is The Langley Files.
The recruiter episode
Nov 29
Hi there. I love the idea for the podcast. Obviously, for me to listen to this either means I’m in that industry, which I am not or that I am just a big fan of the spy genre. I think a big question I had after the recruiter episode was why literally are you now doing a podcast and are recruitment numbers down or are they up? It would feel to the lamen like me that you’re doing a podcast because you see it as an avenue and something you need to do, not something you want to do. I think the number of applicants and how they have either improved or went down, would’ve been an important question. Looking forward to hearing more episodes and seeing how deep you can actually go. I doubt the depth is really gonna be there, but would love to hear about recruitment of specialties like snipers. Keep up the good work.

The hosts are funny and guests/stories very interesting. Desperately need to get the woke topics out and keep them out. Of all the things to bring out of the shadows, race and gender are by far the least important. They have also been wildly misused in the media. 80% of black people in America born to single mothers. Women having the opportunity to pursue careers because technologies developed mostly by men. The world is complex. An episode on the importance of handwriting skills is more valuable than discussing race and gender. There is no third gender either. Gender is a reference to pelvic bone structure and wearing a dress is the psychology term gender expression. Which is fluid by nature. Non binary fake news simply reinforces traditional gender roles this podcast tried to demonize. For an agency whose mission is so dependent on top tier pull out strategy. Failing to acknowledge the 80% birth rate of African Americans to single mothers isn’t very intelligent. Try doing a season void of woke themes and instead address things complained about in the reviews. Like talking about the importance of protecting Americans from countries who wish bad things upon us while also allowing policies which led to 169 people from the terrorist watch list being encountered by border patrol sneaking into the country by where my wife lives. And 11 million illegal immigrants who have been draining resources and committing crimes. If you can’t break the law. Why is the executive branch exclusively doing just that? Talk about why it is important you operate within the law. Focus more on technologies like the recon planes and cameras. The ultra high speed planes had cameras with ultra fast shutter speeds. A lot of people are into photography these days. Things everyone can get interested in. Leave social engineering to the dictators. Rhode Island, neither a road nor an island. Discuss.
Spectacular

Amazing, best podcast ever.
Good history

Good info but should also go into what the agency offers besides cool 007 missions like what it takes to be a hairstylist/makeup artist or and architect anything office type work or even janitorial roles at the facility. When we think of the agency we think of SF guys going out doing stuff but we don’t think about what goes behind the scenes like the office people how’d the get their jobs with the agency.
