To outsiders, Carlton King was a regular policeman. Those close to him knew he had 'something to do with Scotland Yard. But, only those in his inner sanctum knew he was a Special Branch officer who held a unique role in Britain’s Secret Intelligence Service (MI6). At home and abroad, from warzones to the playgrounds of the rich and famous Carlton was embroiled in Bondesque espionage, ultra-deep-cover counter-subversive missions, counter-terrorism, and national security close protection operations that made him known to world leaders from Blair to the Clintons, Chancellor Merkel to Sir John Major and their royal highnesses Prince Charles and Princess Diana. Helicopters, big guns, fast cars, and luxury hotels are all part of Carlton's story, as is his knowledge of extremist politics and the capacity to rapidly evaluate intelligence – not least to stay alive.
With his podcast, Carlton encourages listeners to view the world "as a spy might" - challenge the media and convention, and learn what "they" don't want you to know.
