On a snowy January night in 2018, while most people were fast asleep and still enveloped in their post-holiday glow, the crack of a pistol shattered the silence of the frigid air.In a cozy little home in Stevenson, Alabama, a man had just been shot.Once. Twice. And then a third time before he fell.As he lay bleeding on the kitchen floor and as his shooter worked frantically to save his life, no one could be prepared for the harrowing events that were about to unfold.How to support:For extra perks including exclusive content, early release, and ad-free episodes -Go to - PatreonHow to connect:WebsiteInstagramFacebookTwitterPlease check out our sponsors and help support the podcast:Zocdoc - Go to zocdoc.com/MADNESS and download the Zocdoc app for FREE.

Here’s a preview of a new podcast I think you’ll enjoy. Amid the nuclear threat of the Cold War, America's prized secrets were falling into the hands of its sworn enemy, the Kremlin. The FBI's hunt for the leak led to an astonishing discovery—the mole was one of its own, special agent Robert Hanssen. For two decades, Hanssen masqueraded as a devoted patriot while ruthlessly selling out his country, trading classified intelligence to the Soviet Union and later Russia, in exchange for cash and diamonds. He was a whirlwind of contradictions—a self-proclaimed patriot and a traitor; a family man who sexually betrayed his wife; an ardent man of God and a sinner. In this CBS News limited series, CBS News Chief Washington Correspondent Major Garrett delves into the shocking contradictions and life of Robert Hanssen, whose impact shaped U.S intelligence history. Listen to Agent of Betrayal: The Double Life of Robert Hanssen wherever you get your podcasts.
