Listen "Cuba Libre: An Interview with Intelligence Legend Felix Rodriguez (Part I)"
Episode Synopsis
SPY Historian Dr. Vince Houghton sat down with Cuban-exile-turned-CIA-officer Felix Rodriguez to discuss his extraordinary intelligence career. As a teenager, Rodriguez joined the effort to overthrow (and kill) Fidel Castro.
