Summary

This week, Jake is thinking about the CIA and its role in our culture. Has the CIA played a part not just in political dirty tricks overseas, but also in the music and culture that are part of our daily lives? Plus, We hear about Jake's grandfather, whose dream was to join the CIA, but who was rejected...hmmmm...sounds exactly like the kind of cover story a CIA agent would tell! Since Valentine's Day is nearly upon us, we're bringing you an episode on one of the most disgraceful romances in music history: Sid Vicious and Nancy Spungen. Jake wants to know: What are the most notorious rock star couples in music history? Tell Jake at 617-906-6638, [email protected], or on socials @disgracelandpod.
