America’s Blind Spot: Are We Losing the Long Game?

For two decades, Mike Baker operated in the shadows as a covert CIA operative, tracking global threats and gathering intelligence. Now, he’s laying out the stark realities of modern espionage and national security—starting with China’s long-game strategy to reshape the world order. Mike explains how intellectual property theft, infrastructure infiltration, and cyber warfare are being used to erode American influence.

Dr. Phil presses Mike on the vulnerabilities most Americans don’t realize exist—from power grids to data security—while exploring how businesses must rethink risk mitigation beyond traditional security measures. They break down the psychological tactics used in intelligence operations, the intersection of espionage and business strategy, and why critical thinking and preparedness are America’s best line of defense.

This episode isn’t about fear—it’s about awareness. Understanding these silent threats is the first step in protecting the future.
