Hey, Undetermined Listeners. This is
0:03
Jessica Knoll. I have
0:05
something new to share with you from
0:07
Tenderfoot TV and Neil Strauss, the team
0:09
behind To Live and Die in LA.
0:11
It's a new podcast
0:14
called To Die For, where
0:16
host Neil Strauss takes listeners
0:18
inside the dark and dangerous
0:20
world of Russian sex
0:23
espionage, where for the first time, a
0:26
professed Russian-trained sex spy
0:28
tells her full story. Check
0:31
out this trailer. In
0:36
June of 2011, I
0:39
received a call from the FBI. The
0:42
caller wanted me to fly to Washington,
0:44
D.C. and train several dozen intelligence agents.
0:48
As a writer and journalist, I was
0:50
confused. Trained him in what? I
0:53
asked. His answer?
0:56
Seduction. I
0:59
had written a book called The Game about several
1:01
years I spent undercover in a secret society of
1:03
seduction experts. And to my complete shock, the man
1:05
on the phone informed
1:13
me that the book was required reading for
1:15
him and his colleagues in the FBI. In
1:18
our work where you're developing confidential
1:20
human sources and recruiting
1:22
spies, the understanding of how to develop
1:25
quick rapport and attraction is key and
1:27
critical. This is one of the
1:29
agents who was present at that session in
1:31
the former head of the FBI's behavioral analysis
1:34
program. He told me
1:36
that if I was surprised that the
1:38
American government uses seduction techniques, then
1:41
just wait till I hear how far the Russian
1:43
government is willing to go. As
1:46
a journalist, I decided to find out and
1:49
soon uncovered a ring of Russian models sent
1:51
around the world with specific
1:53
instructions. important
2:00
men, try to attach yourself to
2:02
important men. But no Russian
2:04
spy was willing to talk. I will not
2:07
be able to refund the question. You
2:09
do professional things that you can do today.
2:13
For the first time, the military training
2:15
that should be held to her story, and
2:17
revealed from the Russian government, to disturb sex
2:19
and love into a deadly weapon.
2:23
If you want to kill
2:25
your target, it's easy. Just
2:29
use him, take him somewhere,
2:31
start having sex, and then
2:33
he's very vulnerable so you can kill him
2:35
easily. I'm
2:37
