What makes us human? How can I find purpose in life? How can my relationship survive a rough patch? What do I say to a friend who’s suffering? Does any of this mean anything at all?&nbsp; It’s easy to lose sight of fundamental human concerns amid the churn of the news cycle and the demands of every day. Each week on The Permanent Questions, host David Brooks seeks to return them to our attention through thoughtful conversation with the world’s deepest thinkers.

<p>Sara es la principal accionista de Summer-Petersen, una importante compañía de servicios financieros. Es la ejecutiva más agresiva. La que no tiene miedo. Si se trata de negocios, la información es poder y Sara ve lo que otros no ven. Hasta hoy. Este lunes, reaparece en su vida Miranda Celis, una analista de grandes datos y experta en predicciones basadas en algoritmos. A partir de una sola llamada, Miranda conectará recuerdos del pasado con el anuncio de trágicos e irreversibles eventos futuros.

Hay guerras que no aparecen en los libros de historia. Se libran en silencio, en los despachos más discretos y en las calles más concurridas. Sus protagonistas no llevan uniforme. Sus victorias no se celebran. Y sus derrotas, a veces, cambian el mundo. Espías: Clave Secreta es un podcast de Vicente Vallés sobre los hombres y mujeres que operaron en la sombra durante el siglo XX. Topos que pasaron décadas infiltrados en el corazón del enemigo. Operaciones diseñadas para engañar a ejércitos enteros. Traiciones que costaron miles de vidas. Y espías que, en secreto, evitaron una guerra nuclear. Cada episodio, un caso y cada caso una historia que parece imposible y que, sin embargo, ocurrió. Créditos&nbsp; Dirección y guion: Vicente Vallés y Cristina de Juan&nbsp; Narración: Vicente Vallés&nbsp; Diseño de sonido: Andrés Moraleda&nbsp; Una producción de Onda Cero Podcast y Antena 3 Noticias&nbsp;
