Deep Sea Secrets: Cold War Submarine Chronicles

Go beneath the surface of the Cold War with firsthand stories from a former U.S. Navy radioman who served aboard American submarines from 1984 to 1992. With over a year spent underway, host Jim takes you into the classified world of deep-sea espionage, high-stakes missions, and untold naval history. This isn’t textbook stuff — it’s the real-life tension, humor, and danger from the silent service’s shadowy role in one of the tensest periods in global history. From the Glomar Explorer to the true stories behind The Hunt for Red October, each episode dives deep into a forgotten chapter of undersea warfare. No politics. No fluff. Just the truth from someone who was there.
