World War I brought a new kind of warfare to the battlefield in many ways. The world of espionage got a facelift, especially in America, with aerial photography, code breaking and more.

On Wednesday's Up to Date, we talk with a former intelligence analyst about these strategies and how they changed the way spies work.

Guest:

  • Mark Stout is a program director in the School of Arts and Sciences at Johns Hopkins University and a former intelligence analyst for the State Department and the CIA 

HEAR MORE: Mark Stout speaks at 6:30 p.m. Aug. 20 at the Central branch of the Kansas City Public Library.

When I host Up To Date each morning at 9, my aim is to engage the community in conversations about the Kansas City area’s challenges, hopes and opportunities. I try to ask the questions that listeners want answered about the day’s most pressing issues and provide a place for residents to engage directly with newsmakers.
