First off, Washington DC has an International Spy Museum. (Bad news: it's not a Federal thing, so the admission ticket was too steep for me, last time I was in DC).

But, they interview authors and officials sometimes, and then turn the interviews into free podcasts. They seem to run about 30-45 minutes each. http://www.spymuseum.org/multimedia/spycast/

Of particular interest to Cold War fans, they interviewed two men who were in the Military Liaison Mission, Army officers allowed to cruise East Germany unhindered.

There's also an interview with the US military attache in Moscow during the 1991 coup fiasco, and many more that I haven't listened to, yet.
