35:53Now PlayingThe Department of Defense and the CIA have a long and controversial history of “involvement” in the American film and television industry. A recent story in MintPress News highlights ways that “Borat” star Sacha Baron Cohen used connections with the CIA to facilitate certain memorable scenes in a series of films.
Jimmy speaks with comedian Kurt Metzger, who used to work for Cohen, and former CIA officer John Kiriakou, who was once Cohen’s CIA point person, about the making of “Bruno” and “The Dictator,” and Cohen’s beliefs about Muslims and Israel.
