The Spy Who

Tony Camerino is Ali Soufan's former colleague at the Soufan Group. A combat veteran and Special Agent, Tony conducted and supervised over 1300 interrogations during the Iraq War for a Special Operations Task Force. In this eye-opening conversation, he tells Charlie Higson about the incredible headway he made with detainees working for al-Qaeda, thanks to his use of non-violent interrogation methods. And speaks candidly about the harsh brutalities of war, and its lingering traumas.

Just in time for America’s 250th birthday, follow Dan Taberski (Hysterical, 9/12, Missing Richard Simmons) as he sets off on his most complicated quest yet: to reclaim the manifesto and write his own. Dan attempts to rescue the manifesto as a form from the sweaty clutches of cynical politicians and mass shooters and return it to its rightful place: with the artists, the warriors, the visionaries, and the mildly crazy regular folks with something to say, the passion to say it, and the courage to do something about it. 

From Audible Originals and Please & Thanks Productions, this 6-part series explores the power of the manifesto and asks: Can we get inspired again… and can we do it without a bullet?

Listen to Dan Taberski's Manifesto wherever you get your podcasts. Or binge all episodes of Manifesto ad-free right now on Audible. Start your Audible subscription in the Audible App or on Apple Podcasts.
