Last Looks: Mindhunters
How Did This Get Made?
Realism of Training Exercises
A caller who worked S.W.A.T. and a listener with FBI experience explain realistic scenario training versus the film's exaggerations.
An FBI profiler, military detective, and physics teacher all chime in with A+ corrections & omissions on last week's Mindhunters episode! Plus, Jason and Paul recommend a bunch of stuff they're currently loving, from books and documentaries to a bonkers Taco Bell TV special. And as always, Paul announces the movie we'll be covering on next week's episode.
