We take a look at the network of clandestine "stay-behind" organizations linked together in Italy by far-right groups, The Mafia, the CIA, and a powerful Masonic lodge, all collectively known as "Operation Gladio."

So great. That ending monologue followed by one of my favourite song-endings was just epic. By the way Matt, have you read the English translation of Compagna Luna ? It seems doubtful to me that Balzerani would have been able / wanted to stick around so long and pretend to be a leftist, even up til today, if she had been a CIA plant.

Excellent episode! I listened twice. Why not do more of these?
