Then things take a turn \u2014 from Cold War number stations and umbrella assassinations to Tommy\u2019s astonishing true story of filming a children\u2019s TV feature in Ethiopia\u2026 only to discover years later he\u2019d been caught up in a CIA operation. Expect laughs, memories, and a few \u201cdid that really happen?\u201d moments in this funny, fascinating chat about how the past still echoes today.
