Miranda HarcourtGUEST
Here's a marvelous performance I saw the other day.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
If anyone's watching The Agency starring Michael Fassbender and also starring this wonderful actor, Jeffrey Wright.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
What a guy.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
I also saw him yesterday.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
But check that film out because it's really interesting from a characterization point of view to go, ah, I'm not feeling it with some people.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
And then, ooh, I'm going on the journey with others.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
But I watched Jeffrey Wright in a scene in the agency the other night, and I would love to know whether this was his offer or whether it was written on the page.
Miranda HarcourtGUEST
He sat down in a scene with Richard Gere, who's the boss of the CIA, and as he conversed with Richard Gere, he rethreaded his laces into his shoes.
Ed KraczGUEST
I'm sure it'll be Saturday when they go through their final meetings, but we're not going to know until Sunday.
Xander KrausHOST
Are you a fan of the agency? Yeah.
Xander KrausHOST
the television show.
Xander KrausHOST
I'm going to recommend that to you.
Xander KrausHOST
Okay.
Ed KraczGUEST
The first I'm hearing about it, John, I've never heard of the agency.
Xander KrausHOST
Paramount, Paramount.

Check engine, ABS, or maintenance light on? Take the guesswork out of your warning lights with O'Reilly Veriscan.
MikeHOST
He's gotten kind of typecast as playing spies.
MikeHOST
He was in this movie Black Bag, and now he does that show The Agency, which I think is on Showtime.
MikeHOST
And I like watching it, but some of his movies, I see that movie The Snowman.
MikeHOST
I saw the trailer for that, and I'm like, I'm never going to watch that.
Mike StocktonHOST
... 11 days.
Balazs RenziHOST
days.Yeah. And "The Agency" season t-two, I think is the last one.
Balazs RenziHOST
Still haven't seen that one.
Balazs RenziHOST
But sadly, these are shows I'm watching alone.
Steve HirschGUEST
the, the anniversary coming up Friday.
Steve HirschGUEST
Uh, 9/11 really changed my career at the agency, because I was a chemical and biological weapons analyst when 9/11 comes around.
Steve HirschGUEST
I don't know if you remember, but not long after 9/11, there was, excuse me, there was a, um, an anthrax attack.
Steve HirschGUEST
Anthrax letters were sent through the mail.
18 MINS LATER
Steve HirschGUEST
Sure.
TJ TroutHOST
One stupid one.
TJ TroutHOST
All right, uh, the CIA repre- uh, as it is depicted in the media, and depicted in entertainment, uh, w- w- [laughs] I'm watching The Agency right now.
TJ TroutHOST
Do you, do, have you watched that?
TJ TroutHOST
Also, at the end of the conversation, stupidly, we briefly talked about how the CIA is depicted in films and TV.
TJ TroutHOST
He says he's watching The Agency.
TJ TroutHOST
Do you watch The Agency? No.
TJ TroutHOST
It's good, actually.
TJ TroutHOST
And he also watched Homeland.
John StanleyHOST
Paradise is on Disney.
John StanleyHOST
And the agency's worth a look.
John StanleyHOST
It's on Prime Video.
John StanleyHOST
I can recommend all of those if you want to go and look at – there's a bit of an array there.
speaker_4AUDIENCE
[laughs]
Des BishopHOST
So obviously, that rumor really persists 'cause he's in, he's in something I'm watching at the moment, The Agency, which is actually quite good.
Des BishopHOST
The Agency.
Des BishopHOST
So, um...
Des BishopHOST
And I-- since, since we're talking about shows, I think a show that doesn't get enough attention, which I think is amazing, is Dark Matter on Apple TV.
Jon HeroldHOST
Yeah, so when they try to get to change the way you think, how did they say, proactively shape...
Chris PaulHOST
they did that they did that with the um the top gun maverick 2 thing that we did last year in iran you know and they the the funny thing is i don't know if you and i talked about this but i just watched that show the agency maybe i talked about it with brian brightfield is
Jon HeroldHOST
that good
Chris PaulHOST
It's not like the greatest TV show.
Chris PaulHOST
Okay, good.
Chris PaulHOST
Well, yeah, I'll check that out.
Chris PaulHOST
But anyhow, so this second season of The Agency is about – trying to stop the Iranians from developing nuclear weapons in Fordo and Natanz.
Chris PaulHOST
And at the same time, a Russian-like military contractor, paramilitary organization is taking over Central Africa.
Jordan RichHOST
I sacrifice people.
Jordan RichHOST
If you're into contemporary spy thrillers, ones that play more realistically than your typical James Bond movie, and you haven't seen The Agency, then you don't know what you're missing.
Jordan RichHOST
Michael Fassbender stars as a covert CIA agent operating under the London headquarters, codenamed Martian, one of the best in the business.
Jordan RichHOST
But as is the case with many spies, he falls hard for a controversial figure.
Jordan RichHOST
A thinking person's spy series well worth the watch.
Jordan RichHOST
Two seasons.
Jordan RichHOST
The Agency.
Jordan RichHOST
And that's now streaming with Jordan WBZ, Boston's news radio.
