Shawn Ryan Show

Shawn Ryan is a former Navy SEAL and CIA contractor, and it shows in who he can get to talk: special operations veterans, intelligence officers, and people with stories that would never survive a standard media interview. Episodes regularly run over two hours, unedited and often uncomfortable, trading the polish of a typical true-crime production for something rawer and harder to look away from. It's not for everyone, but nothing else on this list gets this close to its subjects.
