In the first part of a two-part episode, Jane talks with Mike German, an FBI whistleblower. German talks about his journey through the FBI and provides incredible, in-depth insight about going undercover in neo-Nazi and white supremacist circles. He shares his wealth of knowledge about this topic and discusses the illegal wire-tapping on which he blew the whistle. German talks about the retaliation he faced for blowing the whistle, and he and Jane discuss internal whistleblowing at the Bureau.
The second part of the Mike German episode is here. In the second part, German gives more details about his whistleblowing case, provides insight into the January 6th attacks on the Capitol, and talks with Jane about the Bureau at large.
