Episode notes

He did have a brand in fact. He couldn't abandon it. The whole intro of this book is written, I think it's 50 years after the original publication in 1963. Even though it's not literally true, it rings true enough to people that it resonated and that was worrisome for him too,. It's all happening at a time where these post-World War II institutions were still newish.

The "cold" in this classic spy novel is a metaphor, but it's still a chilling book for a chilly season! If you like double-, triple-, and possible quadruple-crossings and hate happy endings, this is a book that you'll want to bring in from the cold.

Our theme music was composed by Nick Lerangis.
