That janitor story has been edited, and meme'd and even the way he just casually tells the story has me in tears every time.

Yall he’s not claiming to be exposing secrets in this podcast he says multiple times there is sensitive information that he cannot say and that what he is saying is all publicly released/accessible information. He’s just sharing interesting stories from throughout his career and adding his professional insight to modern events
