0:00.0	Claire worked in the marketing department for an up-and-coming artisan bakery.
0:05.5	Unfortunately, the artisan bakery in question was so up-and-coming.
0:10.5	Nobody actually knew it existed.
0:13.1	But then she had the really good idea to use Canva to create a business plan.
0:18.2	It looked good, really, really good.
0:22.9	Their investors thought so too.
0:29.2	And now their hotcakes are selling like, well, exactly. Thanks, Canber.
0:35.5	Espionage is a game because it's real world chess. When you see James Bond on a beautiful antique wooden boat, screaming down a channel, shooting out of both
0:38.0	sides. That's not professional intelligence. It's subtle. It's nuanced. It's invisible.
0:42.4	So my 100% job was just to determine my surveilling status, where I knew that the next person
0:48.5	who should follow me is the younger male on their team. I don't know why things were different
0:53.7	that day. It was winter. It was cold. It was nasty outside. Where's he going to fit in? The arcade. You control every element of the time.

1:11.3	There's actually so much about that story that is truly classified, that really, truly couldn't be shared. Not even with your friend, Julian. You think I'm going to tell you today? I think you're going to tell us today. Let's see if you can stump me. Let it happen, Andy. Oh, man. This is payback. Oh my God. Let it happen, Andy.
1:27.6	Oh, dear.
1:28.6	Hey guys, if you're not following me on Spotify, She's paid back. Oh, my God. Let it happen, Andy. Oh, dear.
1:29.1	Hey, guys.
1:29.7	If you're not following me on Spotify, please hit that follow button and leave a five-star
1:33.4	review.
1:34.0	They're both a huge, huge help.
1:35.4	Thank you. I can't believe they wrote, they let you write this book.
1:50.4	I don't know how to take that yet, but I'm excited to explore it.
1:54.1	No, it's amazing what you guys pulled off.
