00:00:01,960 --> 00:00:07,160
Speaker 1: Hi, everybody. We spend millions of dollars on athlete contracts,

2
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,599
but how much time do we spend auditing their neural

3
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:14,039
resilience their nervous system. I have a new podcast called

4
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:16,640
Logical Leadoff and we go beyond the highlights. Whether it's

5
00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,960
the high volatility ecosystem of the San Diego Padres, or

6
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:24,839
the identity moratorium of Mike Tyson, or how certain basketball

7
00:00:24,839 --> 00:00:28,559
players use reading body language. We use clinical psychology to

8
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,239
understand why the legends do what they do. It's had

9
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,200
to move past the noise and look at the data.

10
00:00:33,320 --> 00:00:37,320
So join me a Logical Leadoff on Spotify and subscribe

11
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,000

14
00:00:47,200 --> 00:00:50,880
authorities have charged four individuals, including two Chinese nationals, and

15
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:55,039
a sophisticated espionage operation uncovered in the quiet village of

16
00:00:55,079 --> 00:01:00,759
Comblanis at Maynac, It's fifteen miles southeast of the case

17
00:01:00,799 --> 00:01:04,680
began on January thirtieth, when local residents noticed a roughly

18
00:01:04,719 --> 00:01:08,120
two meter wide parabolic satellite dish being installed in the

19
00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:12,239
garden of a house rented through Airbnb. The installation coincided

20
00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,359
with a temporary internet outage in the area, promoting suspicions

21
00:01:15,359 --> 00:01:19,560
that were quickly reported to authorities. Francis Domestic Intelligence Agency

22
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:23,719
launched an investigation, and on the thirty first of January,

23
00:01:23,799 --> 00:01:27,040
officers raided the property, seizing a computer system connected to

24
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:31,280
the satellite dishes and other equipment capable of intercepting satellite transmissions.

25
00:01:32,799 --> 00:01:37,640
The Domestic Intelligence dh DGSI raid extended over the weekend

26
00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,519
and leading to the arrest of four men. The Paris

27
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,120
prosecutors announced on February fifth at the suspects, two nationals

28
00:01:43,159 --> 00:01:46,120
from China, along with two others suspected of assisting, were

29
00:01:46,159 --> 00:01:50,359
placed under formal investigation for delivering information to a former

30
00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:55,480
foreign party. Investigators allege to the group aimed to capture

31
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,359
and transmit data from the Starlink satellite network operated by

32
00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,799
Elon Musk. The set up reportedly allowed in interception of

33
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:08,000
exchanges involving military communications. The Geron Department, encompassing Bordeaux nearby

34
00:02:08,039 --> 00:02:11,000
aerospace hubs, has long drawing espionage concerns due to the

35
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:15,280
proximity to defense contractors, airbus facilities, and other high tech

36
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:20,479
sites central to France's aeronautics, space and military industries. Intelligence

37
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:24,400
experts note that southwest France, between Bordeaux and Tulos, has

38
00:02:24,439 --> 00:02:28,199
become a recurring target for foreign intelligence operations in recent years.

39
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,759
The Chinese embassy in Paris stated it had noted media

40
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,800
reports but had not received official notification from French authorities.

41
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,599
So there you go, France knocked out a couple of

42
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,800
their foreign spies. By the way, don't forget to check

43
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:44,280
