Introducing: To Die For

iHeartPodcasts
About this episode

Hi, Svetlana fans! iHeartPodcasts and TenderfootTV are excited to tell you about To Die For, a brand-new true crime podcast exploring the dark world of Russian intelligence through the lens of a sex spy. Since you love our podcast, we think you'll like To Die For, too. You don't have to take our word for it, though. Check out this trailer and decide for yourself!

About "To Die For:"  Imagine you were a fly on the wall at a dinner between the mafia, the CIA, and the KGB. That’s where this unprecedented story begins. A journey through the dark world of Russian intelligence where, for the first time, a professed “sex spy” tells her story. All of it. Host Neil Strauss (Rolling Stone, The New York Times) brings listeners into the dangerous world of sexpionage, where enemies of the State are not the only victims. So too are the spies themselves, brainwashed to believe that their bodies belong to Russia and meticulously trained to become “the perfect weapons.” Who is Aliia Roza? From the creators of the hit podcast series To Live and Die in LA, this is To Die For. Binge all 8 episodes now.

Listen to To Die For now on the iHeartRadio app or wherever you get your podcasts!
