Hello.
How do you think you'd define your favourite elements of a story before we dive into this?
What are you expecting to hear?
It's taken hundreds of thousands of tabs for me to pull together this brief and so I'm excited to finally be able to close some of these tabs because they're driving me insane.
Okay.
So basically the first episode that we did on Palantir kind of starts with this absolute breakdown in communications that's happened between the CIA and the FBI.
They're not exchanging information.
And as you've said, it was that kind of breakdown in comms that was one of the reasons that led to 9-11 happening.
So I got interested in why that actually happened, why that eventuated, because there's a lot of weird anecdotes.
One of which is that any time the FBI would call the CIA for information, they would just leave the phone off the hook playing Another Brick in the Wall by Pink Floyd.
They disliked each other so much that they were like just trolling all through the early 2000s.
And I was like, why do they have so much beef?
Like they're on the same side.
What's going on?
And so to understand where the beef originated, we're going back to 1977 to a hill in Washington.
Oh, we're going that far back.
All right.
Basically in Washington.
the Russians are sniffing around for a new location for their embassy.
We're in Cold War politics.
