In this episode of The World and stuff podcast, Drew Petrimoulx sits down with Kyle Vowinkel, a retired Army officer and FBI agent whose extraordinary career includes service in the FBI's elite Hostage Rescue Team and Crisis Negotiation Unit — one of only five agents in history to serve in both. Kyle shares gripping details about his involvement in some of the most high-profile hostage negotiations, including the 2013 Alabama bunker standoff, where a 5-year-old boy was held hostage by a gunman for six days, and the Boston Marathon bombing manhunt, where he played a key role in negotiating the surrender of the surviving bomber. They also dive into Kyle’s lessons learned from these tense situations and how he now applies his crisis management skills to help Fortune 500 companies through his company, Elite Mindsets. Join Drew and Kyle for a fascinating conversation on leadership, resilience, and the psychological challenges behind some of the nation’s most dangerous crisis moments. #FBI #HostageNegotiation #CrisisLeadership #EliteMindsets #LawEnforcement #TrueCrime #LeadershipLessons #PodcastInterview #TheWorldAndStuff #twaspod #drewpetrimoulx Listen to "The World and stuff" on: Apple Podcasts Spotify Amazon Music Connect with me on social media: Instagram TikTok Twitter (X) LinkedIn Facebook Visit my website: www.drewpetrimoulx.com In the press: https://nbcuacademy.com/chasing-justice-documentary/
