Allison Barrie
Barrie is a highly sought-after defense consultant who specializes in tackling current threats and anticipating future ones. Her Tactical Talk podcast leverages her extraordinary access to the elite warriors and national security insiders who are highly accomplished in the business of protecting the United States.

From never-heard-before war stories to current missions as they unfold, Tactical Talk will introduce a series of fascinating veterans and take you right inside high stakes missions.

“Who hasn’t wanted to have the chance to hang out with real life Jason Bourne and James Bond types? Through my new Podcast series, Tactical Talk, I wanted to bring this kind of experience to the public,” Barrie says.  “I plan to introduce America to these ultimate insiders so my listeners can know what they know. Since the guests are my friends, America will get very real, up close and direct experiences. There will be exclusive content, access and reveals, but also lots of humor, courage, adventure - and a whole lot of fun.”

Barrie adds, “I am thrilled to partner with Westwood One. Such a great fit for this authentic, special content. Westwood One brings world-class experience in sports, media and politics – not to mention they are America’s #1 provider of Country music radio content. The Country music community is very supportive of our nation’s military.”

“Allison is a powerful addition to our podcast and on-demand network,” said Suzanne Grimes, Westwood One’s President and EVP, Corporate Marketing for Cumulus Media. “She is an astute civilian insider with unique access to defense information and technology that translates into extremely compelling content. We look forward to the high-level guests and storytelling she will bring to our 245 million listeners and our valued advertising partners.”
