  • Resumen

  • Operation Cordelia is an espionage-comedy told through “found audio” (news reports, tapped phone calls, bugged offices, and people secretly wearing wires) about one neurotic CIA agent’s attempt to stop a mass terror attack in 1970s Berlin.

    With the US, UK, USSR, and France set to meet in West Berlin for a historic treaty signing, CIA officer, Vance Calhoun, discovers that an old enemy is out to destroy the event and possibly start World War III. Vance’s mission to stop the attack is complicated by an array of disparate forces. There’s an East German agent (and ex-lover) who’s secretly using Vance to pursue her own secret vendetta; US President Richard Nixon, who’s determined to win a Nobel Peace Prize no matter who has to kill to do it; and Vance’s own fragile psyche which is in the midst of a debilitating existential crisis. This is an espionage adventure that spans the globe - from clandestine meetings in West Berlin to the shoot-outs in Istanbul to epic Presidential rants in Washington DC.

Engaging Spy Thriller Audio Drama

Absolutely fantastic “found” documentary podcast. The voice cast was excellent. The story developed smoothly over the episodes. I found myself following the clues as the characters try to unravel the mystery.

Really funny and suspenseful

Great mix of laughs and genuine suspense. All the performances and characters were so vivid and funny. The surveillance audio really made me feel like I was traveling around the world, from Berlin to Cairo to Copenhagen. Can’t believe how quickly I binged the whole thing. Please make more content like this!

A cheesy comedy that was thoroughly enjoyed!

I enjoyed listening to this while I was packing for a big move. It was so easy to follow along with the story and I thoroughly enjoyed the voice actors. (Although a little cheesy at moments) it held my attention and kept me on the edge of my seat. Love it! Thank you!

Thoroughly entertaining

Real fun. The voice acting is spot on. The humour well written. I do hope Mr Napier has more up his sleeve.

A wonderful listen

A great old school spy thriller. It has a very Archer meets Bourne vibe. It was a very fun listen!
