Close friends Ken Wainstein and Matt Olsen, who met in the early 1980s as undergraduates at the University of Virginia, talk through Olsen’s fascinating career, from his days working with Ken at the U.S. Attorney’s office for the District of Columbia, to his leadership of the difficult Guantanamo Review Task Force, to his eventual directorship of the National Counterterrorism Center.
