• Introducing...Agent Pale Horse

  We are partnering with CBC, so that we can continue to bring our listeners brilliant investigations like Sweet Bobby. You can join Tortoise as a member to get early and ad-free access to new series and support our investigations at www.tortoisemedia.com/invite.Introducing...Agent Pale Horse. Agent Pale Horse tells the story of FBI undercover agent Scott Payne, whose job it was to infiltrate the most dangerous gangs of our times: outlaw bikers, drug cartels and the international neo-Nazi networks hellbent on inciting a race war. He was taking down these groups from within. And Scott was good at it — people confided in him their most audacious plans for mass violence and domestic terrorism. After a 28-year-long career pretending to be somebody else, agent Payne is ready to tell his side of the story, and an unvarnished view of a life undercover. In this episode, Scott has his first in-person meeting with The Base. Alone. He needs to convince the international neo-Nazi network that he's one of them.
