  • Hey, it's Rachel Martin.

  • I'm the host of Wild Card from NPR.

  • For a lot of my years as a radio host, silence sort of made me nervous.

  • That pause before an answer, because you don't know what's going on on the other side of the mic.

  • But these days, I love it.

  • Give me a minute.

  • Yeah, yeah, thank you.

  • Listen to the Wild Card podcast only from NPR.

  • I'm Tamara Keith here with a Saturday bonus episode for you.

  • It's the most recent episode of NPR's National Security podcast, Sources and Methods,

  • where NPR reporters who cover the military,

  • state department and spy agencies break down the biggest NatSec news of the week.

  • We're going to share these episodes each Saturday for a couple of weeks

  • because their show is a lot like ours and we think you'll like it.

  • You might even hear us on there from time to time.

  • New episodes drop every Thursday and you can follow the show wherever you listen to this one.

  • So here you go, Sources and Methods, the new national security podcast from NPR.

  • So I was talking to this US official I've known for years, and he said, this is a new way ahead.

  • And I said, you guys aren't going to shoot on the land of Venezuela, are you?

  • He wouldn't answer, but he said, this will continue.
