Andrew Bustamente - The Real CIA, Modern Conflict, And What It Means For You

Talking points: culture, geopolitics


This interview is probably among the most unique I’ve had on the show. I don’t usually cover straight-up politics, but Andrew’s work has fascinated me for a while. And as the world seems to getting more up in arms (literally and figuratively), I find myself wanting to learn more about where all of this started and how we as men can respond.


(00:00:00) - Common misconceptions about the CIA

(00:11:47) - Why foreign secrets are such a big deal

(00:24:51) - Andrew’s perspective on current global unrest, Iran, and just how complex it is

(00:38:31) - What’s difficult to understand about geopolitics, and why there seems to be so much conflict

(00:48:19) - Is there any form of governance that truly permits any freedom, and where the balance could lie

(00:57:47) - The perspective shift that changed Andrew’s life

(01:08:51) - Andrew’s take on what’s going to happen next with Ukraine, Russian, and Iran

(01:16:33) - Is US global supremacy in jeopardy? If it is, what does that mean for the average citizen?


Andrew Bustamante is a former covert CIA intelligence officer, decorated military combat veteran, successful Fortune 10 corporate advisor, proud husband and father.

After 20 years running human and technical intelligence operations for private and government clients worldwide, Andrew founded EverydaySpy.com -- the first-ever digital spy training platform. Headlining both US and International media, Andrew’s training events have been praised for their innovative, authentic, and life-changing impact.

When he isn’t giving interviews, running spy exercises, or supporting private intelligence contracts, Andrew lives with his wife (also an ex-CIA Officer) and two children in Colorado.
