Espionage and Enchiladas: The Santa Fe Spy Ring

In this explosively strange episode of The Strange History Podcast, Amy takes you deep into the New Mexico desert, where nuclear secrets were born—and stolen. Learn how the hush-hush Manhattan Project gave rise to one of the most unexpected spy rings in U.S. history, and meet the quirky cast of real-life characters: Klaus Fuchs, the physicist-turned-Soviet-agent; Harry Gold, the guilt-ridden courier; and Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, the couple who paid the ultimate price. From covert meetings in Santa Fe cafés to atomic blueprints passed under the noses of the FBI, this story is packed with danger, drama, and a surprising amount of enchiladas.
