Description

This week's Black Spy Podcast is the end of season 3 round up.

The Black Spy would like to thank all his guests in what was again an eclectic season. From the return of Jill, the straight talking no nonsense ex street drug worker, with her micro tough love advice for those unfortunate enough to be living with the addicted to the three macro giants of the global financial world, the Blockchain, Crypto, Fiat currency, Capitalism and the coming of the world’s new financial order.

We also gained great insight into the powerful entertainment industry from music, to TV, film to media as we learnt of one man’s journey though these genres to find his niche in the production, script and the director’s seat.

The world of sport was also not forgotten, as the Black Spy spoke to professional boxer, of double knock out fame, Marcello Render. This episode touched on the good, the bad and the ugly of the fight game.

The return of retired US Air Force Colonel, Edna Cumming, celebrated US Black History Month. At the time of the episode, Edna was close to finally winning her long overdue battle to gain recognition for the work undertaken by the 6888th during the Second World War. This segregated all Black female military unit was a postal battalion that served in the European theatre during war. However, due to racism the 6888th was overlooked by the country they served. However, due to the efforts of Colonel Cummings and colleagues, Congress passed a bill which was signed by President Byden into law this week. The 6888 are now receiving their long overdue Congressional recognition. The Black Spy Podcast also recognised another African American who had to fight for his and his people’s right to be treated equally as well as to perform the art he loved - acting. So in episode one of season 3 the Black Spy said goodbye to the late great Sir Sydney Poitier.

Finally in this season the Black Spy analysed two politicians and the potential grounds for their actions - President Vladimir Putin of Russia and Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Russian and Soviet history, the Cold War, Brexit, COVID 19 and Party gate.

As usual in ending a season, the Black Spy listened to you, his listeners and answered some of your questions.

So, keep listening, and see you in season 4.
