Project Azorian's Sunken Sub
A special father’s day treat for you! This week, Ed shares one of his favorite chapters from his NYT Bestselling book SNAFU: The Definitive Guide to History’s Greatest Screw-ups (available at SNAFU-BOOK.com or wherever you get your books.) Selected from the Audiobook rendition, Ed weaves a wild tale of a CIA covert operation to develop a bona fide claw machine aboard a seafaring vessel strong enough to haul up the remnants of a sunken Soviet submarine which held Cold War era nuclear secrets. This one is chock-full of spies, subterfuge, and even Howard Hughes! Enjoy this free sampling of the book and order yours today! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
