I sit down with Pete Turner who is a former U.S. Army counterintelligence officer, producer, and host of The Break It Down Show. Pete’s got some unbelievable stories, from his time running missions in Afghanistan to what Hollywood totally gets wrong about spies.
We get into everything from basketball, battlefield lessons, podcasting, and how owning your flaws can actually be a power move. It’s raw, funny, and full of insight from a guy who’s lived through some serious stuff and come out with perspective to spare.
