   2 Parachutes Podcast

   Nov 2025 — Present · US

   2 Parachutes Podcast is a conversation between an accidental CEO and a retired FBI agent who first met while serving at U.S. Embassy Baghdad - Scott with the FBI and Shawn with the U.S. State Department. What began as professional collaboration between me and Shawn Baker-Garcia evolved into a friendship grounded in candid dialogue, intellectual honesty, and mutual respect. And we’re excited to share it on Spotify, Amazon, and Apple. Our purpose is to improve the public dialogue.
