I'm Clint Emerson and welcome to season two of Can You Survive this podcast?

Where the interview is just as dangerous as the scenarios I put my guests through.

From hostage situations to natural disasters, car jackings, active shooters, and more,

if you're looking for the skills necessary to survive these situations, then this is the show for you.

Thank you for tuning in to another episode of Can You Survive this podcast, where the

interviews are just as dangerous as the scenarios I put my victims through. Today, we have

an author and journalist who has awarded the Orwell Prize for books in 2012.

He is the author of First Casualty, the untold story of the CIA Mission to Avenge 9-11.

I want to welcome Toby Hardin to the show.

How you doing, Toby?

Hey, Clayton, I'm doing well. Thank you very much for having me on. Yeah, good. Glad you're here.

I'm excited and a little bit nervous.

Yeah, he shouldn't be. Never like being described as a victim, but you know. Yeah, it's all right.

You'll be okay. Everyone tends to survive. That's the other thing. We had, we had some

listeners point out that

it's always answer b and since then uh the producers have now started switching that it's not

always be anymore so those those that were really paying attention the right answer used to be

all the time but not anymore so you can't use that to your advantage anymore.

Just like any of our shows, we'll start off with a rapid fire and get the ball going. So are you ready?

Sure. All right. Here we go. CIA or MI6? CIA. CIA. FBI or MI5?

MI5. CIA. Oh, FBI or MI5? MI5. This is going to be interesting.

Okay, the IRA or a Q?
