  • Great series

    I have seen other interviews with Jack. This is a different format — great listen even if you know the story. More details than I have heard in other documentaries. Highly recommend!!!

    Better than any fictional spy story. And, I can’t help thinking that I may have met Jack Barsky in Manhattan. I used many messengers over the course of my career and one of may very well have been him.💁

  • Good show

    Production isn’t the best but it’s such a good story I can’t give less than five stars. First heard Jack on the Team House podcast which is really good too.
