It is safe to say that I have wandered a bit. I served in the military, flew some jets, jumped out of most, climbed mountains (I jumped off of them too), taught fitness, owned a gym, and have spent the last few years speaking to organizations and leaders. It has been a journey, and in all honesty, I have no idea where it is going. I seek the things that make me uncomfortable. I move towards things that scare me. I think you should too

Why listen

Cleared Hot gives you Andy Stumpf's direct, experience-heavy perspective as a former military pilot, adventurer, fitness coach, and speaker.

Listeners who like candid veteran-led conversations with practical takeaways and very little polish-for-polish's-sake will feel at home.

In the Crosshairs of National Security - with Chris Piehota

This episode is all about the world of national security and covert operations with retired FBI Agent, Chris Piehota. With a career spanning nearly a quarter of a century, at one point serving as one of six people who oversaw strategic and select daily operations for the entire FBI organization, Chris has a wealth of insights to share from his time spent safeguarding our nation. Chris is in a unique position to analyze where things have been, where things currently stand, and where things could be going with today’s FBI. From leading complex national security investigations to steering cutting-edge technology platforms, Piehota's contribution to the realm of security and risk mitigation is immeasurable. Having been recognized as a Senior Intelligence Officer by the Director of National Intelligence and honored with a 2017 Presidential Rank Award, his expertise in national security matters is second to none. We discuss his experiences overseeing high-stakes intelligence collection programs, his innovative approaches to leadership and organizational development, and his impactful strategies for process improvement and change management. We'll also take a peek into his time as the Chief Executive for FBI Science and Technology Programs, and the Director of the United States Government’s global Terrorist Screening Center.
