Joe Riley and Jack Barsky discuss their shared interests and Joe's superior golf skills. Jack reveals his past as a KGB spy to his children and admits to still having some secrets, but expresses gratitude and contentment with his current life.
Jack Barsky was a college student in 1970 when the KGB knocked on the door of his dorm room to inquire about his plans after college. “I was told to broaden my knowledge of culture, of literature, of music, to become a well-educated person who could operate in higher strata of society.”
