Bill Burns, 66, a veteran diplomat who has run the Central Intelligence Agency since March 2021, made the comments in the first episode of "The Langley Files," a podcast that pledges to demystify the super-secret agency
CIA Director Bill Burns said in the US spy agency's first-ever podcast Thursday that his life is nothing like Jason Bourne and James Bond, ripping hot cars through crowded cities and deploying unimaginable lethal gadgets.
Popular spy films show "a world of heroic individuals who drive fast cars and defuse bombs and solve world crises all on their own every day," Burns said.
"That, I have to tell you, is a constant source of amusement for my wife and daughters."
