Bugged boardrooms. Insider moles. Social engineers posing as safety inspectors!? In this Talking Lead episode, Lefty assembles a veteran intel crew—Bryan Seaver U.S. Army Military Police vet and owner of SAPS Squadron Augmented Protection Services, LLC, a Nashville outfit running dignitary protection, K9 ops, and intelligence training. A *Talking Lead* mainstay! He’s got firsthand scoop on “Red Teaming”; Mitch Davis U.S. Marine, private investigator, interrogator, Phoenix Consulting Group (now DynCorp) contractor, with a nose for sniffing out moles and lies; Brad Duley U.S. Marine, embassy guard, Phoenix/DynCorp contractor, Iraq vet, deputy sheriff, and precision shooter, bringing tactical grit to the table —to expose the high-stakes world of corporate espionage.
They pull back the curtain on real-world spy tactics that were used during the the “Cold War” era and are still used in today’s business battles: Red Team operations, honeypots, pretexting, data theft, and the growing threat of AI-driven deception. From cyber breaches to physical infiltrations, the tools of Cold War espionage are now aimed at American companies, defense tech, and even firearms innovation.
State-backed actors, insider threats, and corporate sabotage—it’s not just overseas anymore. Tune-in and get “Leaducated”!!
