Episode 28: Espionage and You, too!

What does a pilot, his plane, the CIA, the KGB, and U2 (you'll get it) have in common? Well, lots, actually. The United States wanted spy planes, the CIA wanted fancy cameras and information, and the KGB had secret ways to shoot down planes, and eventually everything fell apart. You'll learn about a famous pilot, his capture by the Soviet Union, and about a secret plane that almost sparked a whole war. You'll also hear a lot about Lee Harvey Oswald, and Brad tries to get us placed on a government watch list! Planning a vacation? Love the Cold War episodes we've done and need more?
