Hey, everybody. Welcome back to the Find Out podcast. We have a great, great, great show for you today. We're going to be talking about all kinds of foreign policy stuff. The war in Iran, new secrets that apparently Trump was keeping in Mar-a-Lago that just dropped this morning. And also, we're going to talk about a brand new Find Out media show with our resident foreign policy and national security expert, Dr. Nola Haynes. nola how are you today hi so nola is the new host and noah's been on the show once before and nola is the host of a new show that drops today so once you once you watch this you go watch that it's nola haynes is not a spy so nola tell us a little bit about the name and what the show is about and then we're going to dive into all this crazy stuff in the middle east
Okay, so first of all, thank you guys for having me back on. The first time I was on, we had such a good time that y'all gave me a whole show.
I know. Message to any important people watching, you come on the show, you might get your own show.
And I think you're our first repeat guest ever, right?
Yes.
Oh, shit.
So special. Nice. So first and foremost, I'm so happy to be officially part of the Find Out Media family. And I am actually really happy that we had a chance. most of us to get together in person for the DC launch party. That was really special. And yeah, so Nola Haynes is not a spy, regardless of what my father may think. The podcast drops today, really excited. And, you know, we do all types of fun stuff. We, you know, Tim, we've had conversations about how to talk about foreign policy in a way that people don't roll their eyes, you know, because I'm not in the business of making these very serious topics entertainment per se. But I do realize people need to get the information differently. So that's where Nola Haynes is not a spy comes in.
We do foreign policy differently.
Yeah, and you've already got some great guests lined up. And who is your guest? I think it's a friend of the show, actually, is your first guest.
Yes, Harry Dunn. Harry Dunn is our first guest. People know him, unfortunately, from January 6th. He's the huge black guy that my friend Condi has branded Teddy Bay and Teddy Bay has stuck. She's the branding queen. So, yes, we talked to Teddy Bay, who's also running for Congress here in Maryland. And we're really excited.
What is the purpose of Nola Haynes' new show?
And that episode really crystallizes what Nola Haynes is not a spy is about. So. First, the mission. The mission is to talk about foreign policy and security, but in a way where it meets culture, right? So we bring in those old school TV shows and films that you might have grown up with. Like for instance, I'm gonna give one part away from the Harry Dunn interview. He loves special victim unit. He loves law and order.
Oh, I always call it Sfoo.
Sfoo. I haven't heard Sfoo. I heard SVU. I haven't heard Sfoo. So he loves SVU. It's not necessarily why he became a cop per se, but it's those things that kind of, that we grow up with that we don't think about in the context of being national security focused or foreign policy focused. So, That's how we're bringing culture into the conversation. how we're getting to know people deeper is through what you watched as a kid, you know, and what you still watch. Like, for instance, I loved Commando growing up as a child because I loved Alyssa Milano. Like, I loved Commando. And I was like, I want to be Alyssa Milano and do action films when I grow up. So that was really formative for me. So those are sorts of things that we're getting at when we talk to all these exciting people.
Like, what were those movies that you liked when you grew up and do you still tune in?
Yeah. And I will say we've I've seen some bits of it already. It's really, really engaging, really interesting. And I think people are going to really like it. Also, I know it's going to be a hit because when Nola came to the to the launch party, she came with she rolled like like 50 people deep. Like she she packed the room. So I know even if they just listen, it's going to be a hit.
