The Team Room LIVE · SUN 2000 EST

Every profession has a back channel. This is ours.

A private room where security, law enforcement, military, and intelligence professionals trade notes — and where the leaders who rely on them can listen in. Live every Sunday night. No hype. No gurus.

Who convenes it
Matt Wainscott

The best learning of my career never happened in a classroom. It happened in the team room afterward — where people who'd actually done the work talked straight about what worked and what didn't. When I came out, I couldn't find that anywhere in the civilian security world. So I built it.
