“SpyCast” is one of my favorite podcasts. As part of one of the podcast’s target demographics, I find it is one of the more informative and comprehensive shows out there. Moreover, Andrew is a fantastic host. I can’t recommend this podcast enough.

History can teach us much if we listen. Are you ever going to have J25t3r on? Would love to hear the story behind that laptop!

I know when I click “play” on a SpyCast episode, I will get a fascinating hour of well presented information. Andrew has an interview style that brings out the best of his guests. There are occasional pauses where the listener is brought in on background information that explains all.

Spycast is one of my favorite podcasts. As a former CIA officer, I love the episodes that focus on espionage history, analysis, and of course China. Favorite recent episodes include the interview with Director Panetta, the discussion with Sara Castro about her upcoming book “Mission to Mao,” and...Read full review »

Andrew Hampton is a boring speaker. Bad call.

I’m a regular listener and always find the episodes intriguing and informative.

There are any one of a number of podcasts devoted to espionage and intelligence and spying. This is the best.
Ziusudra via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/24
You’d think coming from the international spy museum it have been better. It’s present by a Scottish man with an accent. I’d like to hear true spy stories, not what you’re doing. Just not for me.

This podcast is a wonderful way to learn of some of the most fascinating people in our history. They’re all very interesting and educational too! The history of intelligence seems so fascinating and intriguing, but in fact its history of gathering information for the presidents men and military...Read full review »

Perfect way to unwind after a hectic day and let yourself be swept away by the captivating tales of spy fiction.

I’m deeply saddened our American heroes who have served and protected our country. Is being interviewed and their stories told by a foreigner who has no roots to the US of AMERICA. Other than his studies. What a slap in the face and an insult!! There are so many American PHD’s who would be a...Read full review »

The host’s accent is so thick that it’s difficult to stick with the show. Of course, it can’t be helped, but it very much limits my ability to stick with the show. I’ve yet to get through an entire episode.
Ladybug's SugarKane via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/22/23
I’ve been listening for a while and look forward to every episode. I can’t wait to visit your museum. Thanks so much.

I absolutely love this podcast and it’s purpose. I love the insights provided by the guests and hosts alike. It’s very interesting understanding the behind the scenes activities of our incredibly present questions that have been burning in our minds.

Brocass via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/12/23
My “go to” podcast for learning about the history, culture, key operations, and important personalities involved in the second oldest profession. The podcast is educational and entertaining. Dr. Hammond and his team do not cover just one type of intelligence (I.e. HUMINT) nor do they only stick...Read full review »

Apparently, according to this podcast, the current leaders of the UK and of Ireland all descend at least in part from the Indian subcontinent. Really? Wales? Mark Drakeford? Have you heard of Wales?
Hokeykokey via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/21/23
Really enjoy listening to this podcast. It always leaves me wanting to learn more about a particular topic. Fascinating to hear different perspectives and personal histories.

Outstanding podcast. Dr Andrew Hammond and his crew do a wonderful job of interviewing key figures from the world of espionage. I highly recommend it!
PTG-M5 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/10/23
Isn’t petraeus the guy who leaked intel to a reporter he was sleeping with. Pretty bad look to bring a sleaze bag like that on the podcast. Unsubscribing.
apt6ix via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/01/23
The time Andrew puts into research ahead of the episode is apparent with poignant interview questions. I also really appreciate the explainer breakdowns he does when a topic is either complex or something that might not be common knowledge, it keeps the listener up to speed on the topic at hand...Read full review »

I just can’t get enough, glad they have been around for such a long time and I have many episodes to choose from. Keep up the good work.

The quality of people they interview is top notch. No other podcast comes close. Easy to listen and enjoy.
Cmejeg via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/15/23
This podcast was recommended to me by a friend and as a history lover I have been obsessed ever since. It is obvious that a lot of work is put into it, and I really appreciate the effort to make this topic accessible to newbies as well as relevant to people in this field. It is also cool that...Read full review »

SpyCast is an awesome podcast and offers a very broad menu of episodes about intelligence. Dr. Hammond is a great interviewer and asks very insightful questions.
MeandNoOther via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/23
Andrew, your interview with Mike Vickers is definitely one of your 5 best shows ever. Five Star podcast all around.
KichiroSan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/23
So in the last episode Barry had to say under Trump the CIA went downhill. Seriously is this the same agency that Brennen ran and attacked a sitting president and lied on multiple media outlets. Not to speak of Clapper who also lied to Congress. Could we have one podcast where one of these...Read full review »

Love the podcast on both the historical and current events about the spycraft. The crown jewel is guests that this podcast show interviews -- coverage is very complete. Thanks. ** The Knelling Man is one of my favorite episodes. **

Really enjoy listening to this podcast each week. The guests are always interesting and refreshingly diverse. Andrew is an excellent host and clearly makes the guests comfortable. Good for even the lay person (like myself). Excited to see where this podcast goes!
